    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: To analyze the incidence trends of primary liver cancer (PLC) in Qidong. METHODS: Data of PLC incidence from 1975 to 1999 in Qidong were analyzed to delineate temporal trends and birth cohort patterns, using age-period-cohort models. RESULTS: Significant moderation or decreasing trends were began to notice in incidence rates on cohorts born in 1913 - 1917 and 1958 - 1962. CONCLUSION: Results showed that the incidence risk of the birth cohorts after 1958 - 1962 started to decline. The changes were possibly associated with the implementation of some practical measures on prevention.
