- Cancer cases and deaths across the UK: which area are hit hardest?
Cancer cases and deaths are down. Find out which ones are getting better and worse across the country• Get the dataAre less of us dying of cancer now? That's what the latest statistics from Office for National Statistics appear to show. The figures, out today, show that 153,800 men and 152,300 women were newly diagnosed with cancer each year in the UK during 2006–08 - which means rates of 421 per 100,000 men and 365 per 100,000 women.Those figures are down from last year's, which covered 2005-2007. They showed 149,500 men and 148,500 women diagnosed with cancer each year - rates of 415 and 359 per 100,000 population respectively (the growing populsiton is responsible for making the rates smaller).The highest cases - by rate - are in Wales, for men, and Scotland for women.The data includes death rates too and 81,100 men and 74,400 women died from cancer in each of those years in the UK - mortality rates of 212 per 100,000 men and 153 per 100,000 women. That compares to rates of 214 and 154 per 100,000 population in the previous stats.The biggest cancer by cases is breast cancer for women and prostate cancer for men. But the biggest killer is still lung cancer, says the ONS:Lung cancer had the highest mortality rate for both males and females and themortality rate for males was 39 per cent higher than in females. For males the mortality rate for lung cancer (52 deaths per 100,000) was twice as high as that for prostate cancer (25 deaths per 100,000), and for females lung cancer had a higher mortality rate than breast cancer. The mortality rate for colorectal cancer was 62 per cent higher in males than females (22 and 14 deaths per100,000 for males and females respectively)The full data is below - and we hope to add historic numbers soon too. What can you do with it?Data 癌症例や死亡がダウンしている

- Elizabeth Edwards | Michael Tomasky
How bizarre that it was just two days ago that word came that Elizabeth Edwards' doctors recommended against further treatment, a step that suggests the person's time is short, but still measured in weeks, usually; and then boom, it was just yesterday that she passed away at 61 from breast cancer.I always feel a poignancy about people like this who didn't ask for the spotlight but were thrust into it. The one false step I felt she made was that time she stood there with her husband in March 2007 to announce that though her cancer had returned, John's campaign would continue. That was mostly on him of course, and it was one of many signs that made me really suspicious of the guy: your wife's cancer starts attacking her again and you're not suspending your campaign? It's quite possible that she was complicit in this against her will, in that way political wives often have to be.But far overwhelming that, she handled many difficult public stresses with grace in the last few years. Can you imagine being humiliated by a jackass spouse in front of the world and having to fight cancer; having to leave him while knowing that it meant that your life partner wouldn't be there with you for the end of the battle? And then still working in the public arena for the things she believed in. And on top of all that, she had to bury a child, which is clearly the worst thing that can happen to a person in this life (I know; my parents had to).She took her share of criticism for standing by her husband for a long time, some of it, as I recall, from me. But now the balance sheets are in, and I think they show clearly that she faced hideous circumstances and handled them with increasing dignity. I hope much work on breast cancer and other health-related issues she cared about is carried on in _NULL_

Workplace exposure to synthetic fibres and certain oil byproducts before her mid-30s triples a woman's risk of breast cancer after menopause, a study among Canadian patients said Thursday.France Labreche of the National Institute of Public Health in Montreal led an investigation into the health records of 1,169 women aged 50 to 75.Just under half had been diagnosed with breast cancer in 1996 and 1997, after having undergone menopause.The other 613 women were diagnosed during the same period with other forms of cancer and acted as a comparison. 閉経後の30代半ばトリプル前に合成繊維、特定の石。副産物に職場の暴露は乳がんの女性のリスク、カナダの患者調査医療記録の調査を主導したThursday.France Labreche国立保健医療科学院のモントリオールでのように述べ1169女性50歳の半分の下で乳がんの1996年と1997年に診断された後、menopause.The他の613の女性を受けたこと癌の他の形態と同じ期間中に診断された75.Justとの比較を務めた

- My week: Ruth Otto, mammographer
Breast cancer screening is an intimate job. Some women will tell you their life stories in three minutesBroadly speaking, my role involves x-raying women who come for breast screening, either through the national breast screening programme, which invites women aged 50-70 every three years, or GP referrals. Breast tissue is fatty and glandular, so it's not like x-raying a leg or wrist. It is more foggy. You put the breast on the x-ray plate and, in order to get a good reading, you have to spread the breast tissue out. It is a very intimate job; you can't do it without being in the patients' personal space and them in yours. I try to treat the women as I would want my mother or grandmother to be treated, and I have had a mammogram myself so I know what it's like. Once the x-ray film is taken, it is read twice, first by a radiologist and then by an advanced practitioner, so that there is less chance of anything being missed.My week depends on the needs of the service. When I'm off in the mobile screening van, which is normally parked in supermarket car park, between 50 and 55 women are invited each day to come for screening. The first session is booked for 9am and our last appointment is 4.30 pm. Some of the women come to see us regularly, so they are quite relaxed. But ladies who have not been before can be apprehensive, so you need good interpersonal skills to reassure them. Sometimes they sit down, and in three minutes they have told you their life story – it all spills out. Knowing how to deal with women who are upset can be difficult, and the work can be repetitive, so it's hard to be as bubbly at 4pm as you were at 9am.I've been in the job for 20 years, and it doesn't matter what your line of work is, some people will agree with it and some w 乳がんのスクリーニングは、親密な仕事です
- How to save women's lives - the lessons from Sierra Leone
Earlier this year, Sierra Leone took the giant step of abolishing health charges for pregnant and breastfeeding women and young children. Dr Samuel A.S. Kargbo, Director of the Reproductive and Child Health program for the Ministry of Health and Sanitation, reports on progress so farIn April, Sierra Leone's reproductive health minister, Dr Samuel A.S. Kargbo, told in this blog of the efforts he and others had made to introduce abolish healthcare charges for pregnant women and children. Here, in a further post, he suggests that Sierra Leone now has some positive lessons to offer the world.FREETOWN, Sierra Leone -- Since Sierra Leone won its independence from Great Britain nearly a half-century ago, two events have improved the lives of every single citizen in the country.The first was the end of our horrible civil war in 2002. After more than a decade of fighting, the coming of peace allowed everyone – old to young, school teacher to farmer – the freedom to walk the land after years of fear. The second happened only this past April: the launch of nationwide free health care for pregnant mothers, women who are breast-feeding their children, and all children under the age of five. Every single individual – from village to city – has been affected by this initiative. According to the World Health Organization, Sierra Leone for years has had one of the worst maternal health records in the world. But now we are seeing the beginnings of major improvement. More people are seeking health care, and in the process we are cleaning up our health care system. Today – only five months after the launch of this healthcare reform - as the United Nations starts its three-day Millennium Development Goals summit in New York City, we also are beginning to find lessons in Sierra Leone's expe 今年、シエラレオネは、授乳中の女。妊娠や子供の健康料を廃止するの巨大な一歩を踏み出した
- The Guardian's Science Weekly podcast: It's all about altitude at World Cup 2010
Steve Haake, head of sports engineering at Sheffield Hallam University, joins us to explain why altitude could make the difference between triumph and disaster at World Cup 2010 in South Africa. He also predicts that goalkeepers will be moaning about the design of the balls. Steve will be giving a talk at the Royal Institution on 8 June. We look at some of your responses to last week's live recording of this podcast at the Science Museum in London. Following a discussion at the Hay Festival on 10 years of the Human Genome Project, we reveal what Nobel laureates John Sulston and Martin Evans, and Michael Morgan, former CEO of the Wellcome Trust Genome Campus, had to say about Craig Venter's creation of the world's first synthetic genome. We visited the Royal Society's exhibition celebrating its 350th anniversary. Keith Moore, its librarian, tells us about Robert Boyle's list of scientific ambitions. View a gallery of the Royal Society exhibition here. In the newsjam we discuss the ban on mephedrone, trials to begin on a breast cancer vaccine, a resignation over GM foods, and why six men will be spending 520 days locked inside a spaceship in a Moscow car park. Guardian science correspondent Ian Sample and Observer science editor Robin McKie were on hand in the studio to throw around the World Cup ball.
