Background
To assess the impact of treatment delay on survival of oral/oropharyngeal cancer (OSCC).
Methods
We followed 5743 OSCCs between 2004 and 2009 from a population‐based screening program and ascertained death until the end of 2012.
Results
The hazard ratios (HRs) of mortality from OSCC were 1.46 (1.30‐1.65) and 1.18 (1.04‐1.33) in univariable and multivariable analyses, respectively,...
Background
To elucidate the impact of varying anatomic sites on advanced stage of and death from oral cancer.
Methods
A total of 27 717 oral cancers mainly from a population‐based visual inspection program in Taiwan from 2004 to 2009 was followed until the end of 2012.
Results
Using lip cancer as reference, the odds ratios (95% confidence interval [CI]) of advanced stage of cancer were 2.20 (1...
