Abstract: Objective The Objective of this study was to analyze the incidence and death status of thyroid cancer in Jiangsu province in 2015 and the trend of incidence and death from 2006 to 2015.Methods The qualified data of thyroid cancer from 35 cancer registries in 2015 were collected by the Jiangsu Provincial Center for Disease Control and Prevention.The incidence and mortality of thyroid cancer were calculated by urban and rural,gender,and age groups,and combined with the province's registered population data.The number of new cases and deaths of thyroid cancer was estimated in Jiangsu province,as well as the corresponding incidence(mortality),the standardized rate of the Chinese population(China standard rate),the standardized rate of the world population(the world standard rate),and the cumulative incidence and mortahty of 0~74 years old,and their ranks and composition.The data from the Jiangsu province cancer registries from 2006 to 2015 were summarized and sorted out,and the average annual percentage changes(AAPC)of the China standard rate of thyroid cancer incidence(mortality)were analyzed using a Joinpoint software.Results It was estimated that there were 5 727 new cases of thyroid cancer in 2015,accounting for 2.46% of all malignant tumors and ranking 9th in all cancer cases.The incidence of thyroid cancer was 7.52 per 100,000,and the China standard rate was 6.25 per 100,000.It was estimated that there were 337 deaths from thyroid cancer in Jiangsu province,accounting for 0.22% of all malignant tumors and ranking 22nd in all cancer deaths.The mortality of thyroid cancer was 0.44 per 100,000,and the China standard rate was 0.24 per 100,000.From 2006 to 2015,the incidence of thyroid cancer in Jiangsu province showed a significant upward trend,the AAPC of China standard incidence was 17.44%(P<0.05);the mortality of thyroid cancer in 10 years did not change,and the AAPC of China standard mortality was 6.78%(P>0.05).Conclusion Thyroid cancer has become one of the common malignant tumors in Jiangsu province,and its incidence is rising rapidly year by year.Its risk factors studied should be strengthened and comprehensive prevention and treatment should be carried out.
