研究人员对 1962 年至 1982 年间以色列犹太人和阿拉伯人肺癌发病率的严重程度和动态进行了研究。总体而言,1962 年至 1976 年间,犹太男性(增长 24%)和阿拉伯男性(增长 39%)的年龄标准化发病率持续上升,而犹太女性(增长 15%)的程度较小。阿拉伯女性增幅最高(77%)。从 1977 年到 1982 年,发病率普遍下降,阿拉伯男性 (19%) 和女性 (15%) 的发病率下降幅度最大。目前,犹太男性的患病率比阿拉伯男性高 26%,犹太女性比阿拉伯女性高 162%。以色列男性和女性(犹太人和阿拉伯人)的肺癌发病率低于世界上大多数发达国家。可能的原因包括人口危险因素概况、医疗保健的可用性以及病例的诊断和查明水平的差异。
The magnitude and dynamics of lung cancer incidence in Jews and Arabs in Israel between the years 1962 and 1982 were studied. In general, age-standarized incidence rates increased consistently between the years 1962 and 1976 among Jewish (24% increase) and Arab (39%) males, and to a lesser degree among Jewish females (15%). Arab females had the highest (77%) increase. From 1977 to 1982 a general decrease in incidence rates, which was largest among Arab males (19%) and females (15%), was noted. Rates among Jewish males are currently 26% higher than among Arab males, and are 162% higher among Jewish female than in Arab females. Lung cancer rates in both males and females in Israel (Jews and Arabs) are lower than in most developed countries in the world. Among the possible reasons are differences in the population risk factors profile, availability of health care and the level of diagnosis and ascertainment of cases.
