The risk of developing metastatic disease decreased over calendar time (adjusted HR=0.98, 95% CI: 0.97-0.99 per year). Conclusions: After a median follow-up of 6.8 years more than 1 in 5 men diagnosed with non-metastatic prostate cancer developed distant metastases. This estimate of the overall risk of developing metastatic disease in the population, and the geographical disparities identified, can inform the planning of required cancer services.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:50:38 AEDT ]]> Lung cancer prevalence in New South Wales (Australia): analysis of past trends and projection of future estimates https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:27280 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:40:22 AEDT ]]> Temporal trends show improved breast cancer survival in Australia but widening urban-rural differences https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:27281 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:40:22 AEDT ]]> Estimating the proportion cured of cancer: some practical advice for users https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:27286 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:40:21 AEDT ]]>
