Cancer patient survival rates: Seer program results for 10 years of follow-up
Max H. Myers,Lynn A. G. Ries +1 more
TL;DR: The five-year survival rate has become almost a standard indicator of patient survival, even though there is no specific biological sig nificance about having survived five years.

Analysis of stage and clinical/prognostic factors for colon and rectal cancer from SEER registries: AJCC and collaborative stage data collection system.
Vivien W. Chen,Mei-Chin Hsieh,Mary E. Charlton,Bernardo Ruiz,Jordan J. Karlitz,Sean F. Altekruse,Lynn A. G. Ries,J. Milburn Jessup +7 more
TL;DR: Changes in CS for colon and rectal carcinomas as TNM moved from the AJCC 6th to the 7th editions are highlighted.

Paediatric cancer stage in population-based cancer registries: the Toronto consensus principles and guidelines
Sumit Gupta,Joanne F. Aitken,Ute Bartels,James D. Brierley,Mae Dolendo,Paola Friedrich,Soad Fuentes-Alabi,Claudia Garrido,Gemma Gatta,Mary Gospodarowicz,Thomas G. Gross,Scott C.

Ries,Carlos Rodriguez-Galindo,Hee Young Shin,Eva Steliarova-Foucher,Lillian Sung,Eddy Supriyadi,Rajaraman Swaminathan,Julie Torode,Tushar Vora,Tezer Kutluk,A. Lindsay Frazier +27 more
TL;DR: Recommendations are made on which staging systems should be adopted by population-based cancer registries for the major childhood cancers, including adaptations for low-income countries and how to ease international comparative incidence and outcome studies.
Evidence that Childhood Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia is Associated with an Infectious Agent Linked to Hygiene Conditions
Malcolm A. Smith,Richard Simon,Howard D. Strickler,Geraldine M. McQuillan,Lynn A. G. Ries,Martha S. Linet +5 more
TL;DR: The model presented supports the plausibility of the hypothesis that decreased childhood exposure to a leukemia-inducing agent associated with hygiene conditions leads to higher rates of ALL in children by increasing the frequency of in utero transmission caused by primary infection during pregnancy.

Influence of extent of disease, histology, and demographic factors on lung cancer survival in the seer population‐based data
TL;DR: Age, however, proved to be the strongest predictor of survival of the demographic variables and white patients survived better than blacks, and small cell lung cancer was lower than that for any other histologic type even when stratified on stage of disease.
