Rate and Structure of Mortality from Malignant Neopasms of Lymphatic and Haematopoietic Tissue in the Regions of the Republic of Bashkortostan (2006–2015)
Introduction. An urgent issue facing contemporary medicine is the problem of cancer. According to official Russian Federation statistical data, of the 2,132,050 deaths recorded in 2015, 286,900 of them resulted from cancer. In this connection, an analysis of mortality due to malignant neoplasms of lymphatic and hematopoietic tissues is a relevant activity.Materials and methods. We analysed data showing the dynamic rate and structure of mortality from malignant neoplasms of lymphatic and haematopoietic tissues in the Republic of Bashkortostan both of the population as a whole and persons of working age. Data covering the period 2006–2015 was derived from the Federal State Statistics Service for the Republic of Bashkortostan.Results and discussion. As a result of the research, an increase in the overall intensive mortality rates from malignant neoplasms of lymphatic and haematopoietic tissues was noted along with an absence of significant differences between the indicators in the Republic of Bashkortostan and those for the Russian Federation as a whole. Our work has shown that malignant neoplasms of haematopoietic and lymphoid tissues are the leading medical and social problem of contemporary oncology.Conclusion. This work was carried out in order to identify the most common clinical cases of malignant tumours of haematopoietic and lymphoid tissue, as well as to predict the incidence and further planning of specialised haematological care to the population.
