Tables of incidence by registry
The rates given in the body of these tables are the average annual incidence by
sex, site and age-group per 100 000 population, i.e. they have been averaged
over the number of years for which data are presented. The column headings are
defined below:
- SITE: A shortened version of the
full ICD-10 title describes each site or site grouping.
- ALL AGES: The total number of
cases by site and for all sites.
- AGE UNK: The numbers of cases of
unknown age by site. They are included in the total numbers of cases and
in the calculation of the all-ages crude rate, for each site and for all sites,
but obviously do not appear in the age-specific rates. They are taken into
account in the computation of the world standardized and cumulative incidence
rates.
- 0-, 5-...: The age-groups for
which incidence data are presented. These usually end with the age-group 85+,
but population data are not available above age 70 or 75 for some registries
and in this case the incidence data finish at age 70+ or 75+.
- CRUDE RATE: The crude average
annual incidence rate, based on the total number of registrations, of known and
unknown ages, by site.
- %: The proportional frequency of
each site to the total of all sites excluding ICD-10 C44 (other skin).
- CR64 and CR74: The sum over each
year of age of the age-specific incidence rates, taken from birth to age 64 and
from birth to age 74.
- ASR(W): The world
age-standardized incidence rate by site.
- ICD(10th): The ICD-10 code(s)
corresponding to the site or group of sites given in the left-hand column.
Key to conventions and symbols used in the tables:
- Zero rate: a dash (–) means that
there are no cases registered.
- 0.0 means an incidence rate less
than 0.05.
Population-at-risk
For populations with persons of unknown age, the numbers are shown below the lowest
age-group in the pyramid. The percentages by age are computed over the total
(male and female) population.
