Objective The objective of this study was to analyze the epidemiological characteristics and changing trends of cancer in Ankang city,Shaanxi province from 2016 to 2020,and provide a scientific basis for the prevention and control of cancer in Ankang city.Methods Based on the data review and quality evaluation methods developed by the National Cancer Center,a quality evaluation was conducted on the incidence and mortality data of cancer reported by 10 tumor registries in Ankang city from 2016 to 2020.SPSS 20.0 software was used to calculate the crude incidence,China standard incidence,crude mortality,China standard mortal-ity,and the top 10 incidence and mortality order and composition.Joinpoint software was used to analyze the annual percentage change(APC)of incidence and mortality of cancer in Ankang city from 2016 to 2020.Results The crude incidence of cancer in Ankang from 2016 to 2020 was 219.04/100,000,and the China standard incidence was 153.58/100,000;The crude mortality was 131.81/100,000,and the China standard mortality was 89.29/100,000.From 2016 to 2020,the incidence and mortality of cancer in Ankang city increased with age,rising rapidly after the age group of 40-44 and the age group of 45-49.The incidence reached its peak in the age group of 75-79 and the mortality in the age group of 85 and above,with 1108.43/100,000 and 920.15/100,000,respectively.The top four causes of incidence and mortality were lung cancer,liver cancer,esophageal cancer,and gastric cancer.From 2016 to 2020,the China standard incidence and China standard mortality of cancer in Ankang city exhibited an upward trend.Conclusion From 2016 to 2020,the incidence and mortality of cancer in Ankang city are on the rise,and men are higher than women.Health edu-cation and lifestyle interventions should be focused on people over 40 years old to strengthen the three-level prevention,early screen-ing,early diagnosis and early treatment of cancer,reduce the incidence of major cancer,improve survival rate,and reduce the burden of disease.
