Renal cell carcinoma: the population, real world, and cost-of-illness
Buja A, De Luca G, Gatti M, Cozzolino C, Rugge M, Zorzi M, Gardi M, Sepulcri M, Bimbatti D, Baldo V, Maruzzo M, Basso U, Zagonel V. BMC Urol. 2022 Dec 19;22(1):206. doi: 10.1186/s12894-022-01160-y. AbstractBackground: The RCC treatment landscape has evolved dramatically over the past decade. The purpose of this study is to present a real-world data estimation of RCC's cost-of-illness for this tumour's clinical pathway. Methods: This investigation is a population-based cohort study using real-world data, which considers all RCC incident cases diagnosed in Local Unit 6 of the Province of Padua...
Quality control on digital cancer registration
Guzzinati S, Battagello J, Bovo E, Baracco M, Baracco S, Carpin E, Dal Cin A, Fiore AR, Greco A, Martin G, Memo L, Monetti D, Rizzato S, Stocco C, Zamberlan S, Zorzi M, Rugge M. PLoS One. 2022 Dec 22;17(12):e0279415. doi: 10.1371/journal.pone.0279415. eCollection 2022. Abstract Population-based cancer registration methods are subject to internationally-established rules. To ensure efficient and effective case recording, population-based cancer registries widely adopt digital processing (DP) methods. At the Veneto Tumor Registry (RTV), about 50% of all digitally-identified (putative) cases of...
Trends in Liver Cancer Incidence and Survival in Italy by Histologic Type, 2003-2017

Design: population-based descriptive study. Setting and participants: incident cancer cases...
Global survival trends for brain tumors, by histology: analysis of individual records for 556,237 adults diagnosed in 59 countries during 2000-2014 (CONCORD-3)
Girardi F, Matz M, Stiller C, You H, Marcos Gragera R, Valkov MY, Bulliard JL, De P, Morrison D, Wanner M, O'Brian DK, Saint-Jacques N, Coleman MP, Allemani C; CONCORD Working Group.

We set out to provide a comprehensive examination of worldwide variation and trends in survival from brain tumors in adults, by histology. Methods: We analyzed individual data for adults (15-99 years) diagnosed with a brain tumor (ICD-O-3...

Impact of Microscopic Confirmation on Therapeutic Management of Pancreatic Cancer Patients: Lessons from an Italian Regional Tumor Registry
Fantin A, Gruppo M, De Simoni O, Lonardi S, Cristofori C, Morbin T, Peserico G, Grillo S, Masier A, Franco M, Pilati P, Guzzinati S, Zorzi M, Rugge M. Cancers (Basel). 2022 Oct 31;14(21):5372. doi: 10.3390/cancers14215372. Abstract Background: Incidence of pancreatic cancer (PC) is increasing worldwide and is set to become the second leading cause of cancer-related death in 2040 with a poor 5-year overall survival (OS). The aim of this study was to analyze the impact of microscopic diagnosis of PC (MiDPC) on diagnostic−therapeutic management and outcome. Methods: The Veneto region...
Cancer cost profiles: The Epicost estimation approach
Francisci S, Capodaglio G, Gigli A, Mollica C, Guzzinati S. Front Public Health. 2022 Sep 21;10:974505. doi: 10.3389/fpubh.2022.974505. eCollection 2022. Abstract Sustainability of cancer burden is becoming increasingly central in the policy makers' debate, and poses a challenge for the welfare systems, due to trends towards greater intensity of healthcare service use, which imply increasing costs of cancer care. Measuring and projecting the economic burden associated with cancer and identifying effective policies for minimising its impact are important issues for healthcare systems. Scope...
