説明

Five hundred and thirty-seven breast cancer patients were entered for a registry program in Fukui prefecture between 1984 and 1987. The overall 5-year survival rate was 79.5%. The rates decreased with age ; 82.9% in the group aged 54 years and under, 79.4% in the 55-69 year-old group, and 68.8% in the group aged 70 years and over. Patients with an occupation showed better survival than those without, such as housewives, 86.7% and 75.7% respectively. Living area made a difference to the rate : 81.3% in city dwellers and 75.5% in town & village dwellers.<BR>Analysis of these disparities in survival rate revealed the following : <BR>1) Within groups showing lower survival, such as the older group, group without occupation and group living in a town & village, the incidence of more advanced disease was much higher than in the opposite group for each category. This might have been due to delay in becoming aware of subjective symptoms in the former groups.<BR>2) The latter two groups showed a tendency to postpone consulting a physician, which might also have produced the lower survival rates.<BR>3) Multivariate analysis of these 3 social factors revealed that engagement in an occupation had the most powerful influence on survival.<BR>It is stressed that not only biological, but also social influences must be taken into consideration in mass-screening and educational projects to improve cancer patient survival.
