在环极地地区,爱斯基摩人(或因纽特人)构成了一个大约有11万人的单一种族群体。最大的人口为45629人(1988年1月1日),居住在格陵兰岛,其余大部分人生活在加拿大北部(西北地区、魁北克和纽芬兰)和阿拉斯加(美国)。大约1600名因纽特人(Yuit)生活在苏联西伯利亚的最东端,但由于缺乏数据,无法对这一人口群体进行任何评估。因此,北极圈因纽特人分布在以北极永久冻土为主的环境中,面积超过700万平方公里,在短暂的夏季期间,平均最高温度为10摄氏度。在过去的40-50年里,世界上环极地地区的因纽特人的生活水平发生了巨大的根本性变化。这些人从以开发动物资源为主要基础的传统生活方式的孤立群体,自第二次世界大战以来经历了社会、经济和政治改革的加速步伐。因此,与寿命延长相关的疾病,特别是癌症,变得更加常见。阿拉斯加报告了癌症发病率的研究(Lanier等人。加拿大(Hildes&Schaefer,1984)和格陵兰(Nielsen,1986)的癌症发病率模式显示,这三个地区的癌症发病率模式都已从“传统因纽特人”模式转变为更加“西化”的模式。这本出版物提供了格陵兰癌症模式的最新描述,以及1953-85年期间的发病率和趋势。它还报告了与丹麦癌症模式的比较。
In the circumpolar region, Eskimo (or Inuit) people constitute a single ethnic group of approximately 1 10 000 individuals. The largest population, 45 629 (1 January 1988), inhabits Greenland, while most of the remainder are found in northern Canada (Northwest Territories, Quebec and Newfoundland) and in Alaska (USA). About 1600 Inuit (Yuit) live in the easternmost part of Siberia in the USSR, but lack of data precludes any evaluation of this population group. The circumpolar Inuit are thus distributed over more than seven million km2 in an environment predominantly of arctic permafrost, with an average maximal temperature of 10°C during the short summer periods. The standard of living of the Inuit people in the circumpolar regions of the world has undergone substantial, radical changes during the past 40-50 years. From isolated groups with a traditional life style based primarily on exploitation of animal resources, these people have experienced an accelerated pace of social, economic and political reform since the Second World War. Diseases associated with an increased life span, in particular cancer, have thus become more common. Studies of cancer incidence have been reported from Alaska (Lanier et al. 1980a), Canada, (Hildes & Schaefer 1984) and Greenland (Nielsen 1986), and the pattern of cancer incidence was shown to have changed from the “traditional Inuit” pattern to a more “westernized” pattern in all three regions. This publication provides an updated description of the pattern of cancer in Greenland, with incidence and trends for the period 1953-85. It also reports on comparisons with the cancer pattern in Denmark.
