Trends in incidence of primary XXXX in New Zealand, 1995 to 2010.

@entity11 @entity75 @entity1313
UNASSIGNED: Objective: Case-control studies have linked mobile phone use to an increased risk of @entity11 in the most exposed brain areas, the temporal and parietal lobes, although inconsistently. We examined time trends in the incidence rates of @entity75 in New Zealand from 1995 to 2010. Methods: Data from the New Zealand Cancer Registry was used to calculate incidence rates of primary @entity1313 , by age, gender, morphology and anatomical site. Log-linear regression analysis was used to assess trends in the annual incidence of primary @entity1313 ; annual percentage changes and their 95% confidence intervals were estimated. Results: No consistent increases in all primary @entity1313 , @entity11 , or temporal or parietal lobe @entity11 were seen. At ages 10-69, the incidence of all @entity1313 declined significantly. Incidence of @entity11 increased at ages over 70. Conclusion: In New Zealand, there has been no consistent increase in incidence rates of primary @entity1313 . An increase in @entity11 at ages over 70 is likely to be due to improvements in diagnosis. As with any such studies, a small effect, or one with a latent period of more than 10 to 15 years, cannot be excluded.
