Incidence Rates definition

Incidence Rates. The SEER*Stat® software package,7 developed by the Information Management Services Inc. for NCI, was used to calculate incidence rates. Rates are expressed per 100,000 population. Age-adjustment of rates was calculated by the direct method adjusting to the 2000 U.S. standard million population. Rates are rounded to the nearest 10th and very small rates (e.g., 0.04) are shown as 0.0. They are presented with the lower and upper confidence intervals computed at the 95% level using Tiwari method.8 Algorithms used for the calculation of standard errors and 95% confidence intervals are displayed in Appendix D of the state incidence report (see Illinois State Cancer Incidence Review and Update).

Incidence Rates. The SEER*Stat® software package,7 developed by the Information Management Services Inc. for NCI, was used to calculate incidence rates. Rates are expressed per 100,000 population. Age-adjustment of rates was calculated by the direct method adjusting to the 2000 U.S. standard million population. Rates are rounded to the nearest 10th and very small rates (e.g., 0.04) are shown as 0.0. They are presented with the lower and upper confidence intervals computed at the 95 percent level using Tiwari method.8 Algorithms used for the calculation of standard errors and 95 percent confidence intervals are displayed in Appendix D of the state incidence report (see Illinois State Cancer Incidence Review and Update). Race-specific Rates: At the state level, the race-specific categories include "White," "Black" and "Asian/Other Races." Cases reported as unknown race were included in the "All Races" category, but not in any race-specific group. At the county level, race-specific data are available for whites and blacks for 15 counties (Champaign, Cook, DuPage, ▇▇▇▇, Kankakee, Lake, Macon, Madison, Peoria, Rock Island, Sangamon, St. Clair, Vermilion, Will and Winnebago). These same race grouping are available on the Cook County specific file. No race-specific data are available at the ZIP code level. To improve the identification and surveillance of American Indians and Alaska Natives diagnosed with cancer and to be consistent with the national data, cancer incidence data since 1995 were linked to the Indian Health Service (IHS), which provides medical services to an estimated 55 percent of the American Indian/Alaska Native population.9 If a race code in the ISCR database is white, black, other or unknown and the IHS link is positive, then the race code is re-categorized to American Indian/Alaskan Native; otherwise the race code stays unchanged. This practice has minimal impact on the incidence rates for whites or blacks due to the small number of cases affected.

Incidence Rates means the number of injuries and/or illnesses or lost workdays per 100 full-time workers and are calculated as (N/EH) X 200,000 where:
