目的:确定结直肠癌(CRC)的发病率是否不成比例地高,在路易斯安那州的法国-拉丁美洲地区(人口120万),家的Cajuns,一个founder population.METHODS:2005 - 2009年癌症发病率分层的年龄/种族/性别在18拉丁美洲教区地区和9个教区亚组与较高比例的法语发言者,并与路易斯安那州和美国的利率。通过语言普查数据确定教区。共3,288例CRC病例被确定在路易斯安那州和路易斯安那州的11,737例。结果:在18个教区的白人和白色男性的CRC发病率在统计学上显著高于路易斯安那州和美国的发病率。在9个教区,发病率进一步上升;白人的发病率为56.1/10万,比路易斯安那州高13%(P
OBJECTIVES: Determine whether colorectal cancer (CRC) rates are disproportionately high in the French-Acadian region (population 1.2 million) of Louisiana, home of the Cajuns, a founder population.METHODS: 2005-2009 cancer incidence rates were stratified by age/race/gender in the 18 Acadian parish region and 9-parish subgroup with higher proportions of French speakers and compared with Louisiana and United States rates. Parishes were identified through language census data. A total of 3,288 CRC cases were identified in the Acadian region and 11,737 in Louisiana.RESULTS: CRC rates in whites and white males in the 18 parishes were statistically significantly higher than both Louisiana and US rates. In the 9 parishes, rates increased further; whites had an incidence of 56.1/100,000, 13% higher than Louisiana (P
