Analysis of Upper Gastrointestinal Cancer Screening Results in Rural Areas of Lhasa in Xizang from 2015 to 2019
[Purpose]To analyze the results of upper gastrointestinal cancer screening in rural areas of Lhasa from 2015 to 2019.[Methods]Upper gastrointestinal cancer screening program was conducted among residents aged 40～69 years old from 3 rural project sites in Lhasa selected by cluster sampling method from 2015 to 2019.The detected malignant tumors and precancerous le-sions were treated and confirmed by pathological examination.The detection rate of esophagus and stomach cancer were calculated by region,sex and age and compared by x2 test.[Results]A total of 1 399 people underwent gastroscopy,among whom 1 288 completed pathological biopsy(92.07％).Three cases of esophageal cancer were detected with a detection rate of 0.21％(3/1 399),all of which were advanced squamous cell carcinoma.Eight cases of gastric cancer were detected with a detection rate of 0.57％(8/1 399),and 2 cases were early gastric cancer.The detection rate of low-grade and high-grade epithelial neoplasia of gastric mucosa was 0.64％(9/1 399)and 0.21％(3/1 399),respectively.There was no significant difference in the detection rate among different regions,sexes and age groups(all P＞0.05).[Conclusion]The detection rate of upper gastrointesti-nal cancer in screening population in Lhasa is lower than the national average level.Men and the elderly are important target populations for upper gastrointestinal cancer screening,and increasing participation rates is necessary for more effective screening outcomes.
