Abstract
Aim. To assess the trends in the incidence of gastric cancer in the Omsk region during 2006-2017.
Materials and Methods. We carried out a descriptive study based on statistical reports (Form No. 7) of the Omsk Region healthcare institutions during 2006-2017. General and standardized indicators of gastric cancer incidence (per 100,000 population) were calculated.
Results. Gastric cancer was responsible for 6.4% of all cancer cases in Omsk Region during the study period; this proportion was above the Russian average (6.0%). From 2006 to 2017, gastric cancer incidence in Omsk Region decreased 1.2-fold (from 27.6 to 22.4 °/0000; p < 0.001). In Omsk, the incidence of gastric cancer did not change significantly from 2010 to 2017 (Tdecrease = -0.46%) with a moderately pronounced steady trend to decrease in rural areas (Tdecrease = -1.24%). The assessment of standardized indicators revealed an emerging increase in gastric cancer incidence in the region from 2010 to 2017 (Tincrease = 0.98%).
Conclusion. The rate of decrease in gastric cancer incidence was 2.7-fold higher in rural areas as compared to Omsk. Current situation requires studying the trends related to risk factors of gastric cancer in Omsk Region in order to improve primary prevention.
