P1-97 Demographic analysis of osteosarcoma and ewing sarcoma family of tumours in 0–49 year olds in Great Britain, 1980–2005
Introduction Primary bone cancers (PBC) occur most often in young people. Osteosarcoma and Ewing sarcoma family of bone tumours (ESFT) are the most common sub-groups but aetiology remains unclear. Some childhood cancer rates are known to vary with socioeconomic status. Therefore, this study examined geographical patterning in osteosarcoma and ESFT incidence, diagnosed in 0–49 year olds in Great Britain (GB) during 1980–2005. The analysis focussed…
P1-96 Primary bone cancer in 0–49 year olds in great britain, 1980–2005 and fluoride in drinking water
Introduction Primary bone cancers (PBC) occur most often in young people. Osteosarcoma and Ewing sarcoma family of bone tumours (ESFT) are most commonly diagnosed in children but aetiology remains unclear. Fluoride has been proposed as a potential causal agent for PBC. The study investigated whether incidence of PBC was linked with fluoride in drinking water. Method Incidence data on cases aged <50 years diagnosed during 1980–2005 were obtained f…
Rural to urban migration and changes in cardiovascular risk factors in Tanzania
High levels of rural to urban migration are a feature of most African countries. Our aim was to investigate changes, and their determinants, in cardiovascular risk factors on rural to urban migration in Tanzania. Men and women (15 to 59 years) intending to migrate from Morogoro rural region to Dar es Salaam for at least 6 months were identified. Measurements were made at least one week but no more than one month prior to migration, and 1 to 3 mon…
Demographic analyses of primary bone cancer in 0–49 year olds in Great Britain, 1980–2005
Objective To examine geographical patterning in the incidence of primary bone cancers diagnosed in 0–49 year olds in Great Britain (GB) during the period 1980–2005. The analyses focussed on the two most common types in this age range, osteosarcoma and Ewing sarcoma. We specifically aimed to analyse putative associations with area characteristics including deprivation and population density. Design The study accessed multiple data sources includin…
Survival from childhood and young adult cancer in the north of England, 1968–2005
Objective To investigate survival from cancer in children and young adults resident in the North of England. Methods Cases aged 0–24 years diagnosed with a primary malignancy during the period 1968–2005 were obtained from the Northern Region Young Persons' Malignant Disease Registry. Survival rates at five years were calculated using Kaplan- Meier estimation, for each diagnostic group, within four successive time periods 1968–1977, 1978–1987, 198…
P06 The epidemiology of type 1 diabetes in children from Northeast England
Objective Environmental factors are involved in the aetiology of type 1 diabetes. A particular role for infectious exposures has been postulated. Temporal and spatial variation in incidence would be consistent with this hypothesis. We aimed to test predictions of increasing incidence and spatial variation occurring among cases of type 1 diabetes in children (aged 0–14 years) that might arise as a result of environmental mechanisms. Design Populat…
Increasing incidence of thyroid cancer in Great Britain, 1976–2005
Objective To examine temporal trends in the incidence of primary thyroid cancers diagnosed in 0–49 year olds in parts of Great Britain (GB) during the period 1976–2005. We specifically aimed to analyse age, period and cohort effects. Design Population-based descriptive analysis of cancer registry data. Setting Parts of Great Britain. Participants Case data on thyroid cancer were obtained from four regional cancer registries in GB (i. Northern and…
Fluoride and bone cancer
Objective To analyse the putative association between incidence of primary bone cancer diagnosed in 0–49 year olds in Great Britain (GB) in 1980–2005 and fluoride in drinking water. The analyses focussed on osteosarcoma and Ewing sarcoma. Design The study accessed multiple data sources including population census, digital boundary, postcode directory and fluoride monitoring at water supply zone level data. Incidence data from all 10 regional canc…
A multivariate analysis of work–life balance outcomes from a large‐scale telework programme
A multivariate analysis identified six predictors to explain positive work–life balance (WLB) among 1,566 teleworkers. Time flexibility variables were found to be most dominant. Gender or having dependent children was not significant. These results demonstrated that controlling working hours was the most important ability for sampled teleworkers to achieve positive WLB
The epidemiology of bone cancer diagnosed in 0–49-year-olds in northern England, 1981–2002
Results: There were a total of 5909 childhood cancer cases; 2959 aged 0-14 years (1659 males, 1300 females) and 2950 aged 15-24 years (1590 males, 1358 females).For 0-14-year-old boys, there was statistically significant sinusoidal variation in month of birth for acute non-lymphocytic leukaemia (p = 0.04; peak in September) and astrocytoma (p = 0.03; peak in October).Based on month of diagnosis, there was statistically significant sinusoidal vari…
Metabolic health changes in migrants moving from a rural to an urban environment in Tanzania
before achieving LTC, and 49% achieved LTC. The relative hazard of death before achieving LTC compared to surviving without achieving LTC decreased for those with a history of opiate substitution therapy (OST) (HR 0.19, CI 0.10 to 0.34) and increased for HIV positive participants (HR 6.2, CI 3.6 to 10.6), those who started injecting after 1985 (HR 2.5, CI 1.3 to 4.8), those aged over 18 years at first injection (HR 2.2, CI 1.4 to 3.6), and those …
Seasonal variation in birth and diagnosis of cancer in children and young people in Northern England, 1968–2005
Background: Studies of social inequalities in common mental disorders -anxiety and depression -often use measures that do not discriminate between conditions, but these disorders may differ from one another in their social patterning across the lifecourse. The Twenty-07 Study includes the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), which has sub-scales for each condition, allowing possible differences in patterning to be examined. Objective: To…
