Lung cancer is not common in young people, but it does occur. It is easily missed in the early stages, so you need to tell your healthcare provider if you have anysigns or symptoms of lung cancer, or if you have a family history of the disease. This is true whether you are a smok...
Among men, age-specific lung cancer incidence rates generally decreased in all countries, while in women the rates varied across countries with the trends in most countries stable or declining, albeit at a slower pace compared to those in men. As a result, the female-to-male IRRs increased ...
Previous studies suggested that the characteristics of young female lung cancer patients may differ from those of other patients. Using the cancer registry at the Lungenklinik Heckeshorn hospital, all female patients under the age of 46 yrs with primary lung cancer 1986-1995 were identified. The ...
Geoffrey R. Oxnard, M.D., of the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Boston, and coauthors examined the relationship between young age at diagnosis and the presence of a potentially targetable genomic alteration and prognosis. The study included 2,237 patients with NSCLC who underwent genotyping between...
We explored the trend in lung cancer incidence rates among a young Swiss population (30–54 years old) by sex from 1990 to 2014 to investigate the birth cohort effect on lung cancer. We evaluated smoking rates from 1992 to 2012 to explain sex differences in lung cancer incidence rates.The ...
Ms. Potter noted that during the last decade, patients over age 50 experienced a significant shift to earlier stages of disease identified, likely due to the onset of lung cancer screening in the U.S. In contrast, there have been minimal improvements in the early diagnosis of young patients ...

Lung cancer (LC) is the leading cause of cancer death in China and Australia, the countries with different socioenvironmental contexts in the Western Pacific Region. Comparing the age-period-cohort effect on LC mortality (LCM) between the two countries c
A study of lung cancer in younger adults (<50 years) has found a recent trend of higher lung cancer rates in women compared to men. The increase is driven by cases of adenocarcinoma of the lung. The "emerging pattern of higher lung cancer incidence in young females" is not confined to ...
