  • Title: [Mortality of carcinoma of uterine cervix in France : 1950-1976, trends and geography (author's transl)].
    Author: Berlie J, Janin ML, Hucher M, Gest J, Brunet M.
    Journal: Bull Cancer; 1979; 66(4):395-403. PubMed ID: 526627.
    Abstract:
    A study of changes in mortality due to carcinomas of cervix uteri in France between 1950 and 1976 was undertaken. Rates increased slightly over the whole period (0.44% per year). However, from 1950 to 1968 there was an increase (1.9% per year) and from 1969 to 1976 a decrease (1.17%). This decrease may be due partly to improvements in diagnosis, screening and cure. The geographical distribution has not shown any regional particularity. There is a high significant correlation with geographical distribution of breast cancer mortality, a hitherto unknown finding in France.
