MONITORING OF CHILDREN’S CANCER INCIDENCE IN THE REPUBLIC OF DAGESTAN

Abstract. Aim. Monitoring and forecasting of malignant tumors of the child population of the Republic of Dagestan.

Methods. Current and retrospective analysis of indicators of regional health cartographic method, mathematical and cartographic
modeling, methods of medical and geographic analysis were key research methods (Malkhazova, 2001; Murman, 2004; Puzachenko,
2004; Trukhacheva, 2012).

Results. General incidence of malignant tumors in children evolved mainly due to the high incidence of males in the study period. However, analysis of the average annual growth rate of malignant neoplasms detected a substantial increase in the female group. Analysis of the age structure of malignant tumors revealed extensive highest incidence of children in the age group from 0 to 4 years, where the average annual rate of cancer rates of males was higher than that of females. A similar tendency was noted and gender in other age groups. Maximum values of the average annual growth rate of malignant neoplasms of the child population of the republic is also found in the age group 0 to 4 years, which is mainly formed by high performance in the male population. Projections of cancer incidence over the next 10 years (2012–2022). Revealed an increase in child cancer rates, women's group which will be slightly higher than in men.
