Cancer incidence in the native peoples of far eastern siberia
Abstract Cancer incidence rates were examined in the native peoples of the far north‐east of Siberia for the years 1977–1988. Particularly high rates of cancers of the stomach, lung, oesophagus and cervix were observed. For stomach cancer, the male and female age‐standardized (to the world populatio...

Male rates of stomach and lung cancer were highest in the paleo‐Asiatic peoples of the north, whereas male oesophageal rates were highest in the Taiga people. In females, rates of stomach and oesophageal cancers were highest in the paleo‐Asiatic peoples, and rates of lung cancer were highest in the Taiga nationalities. Cervical cancer rates were highest in the Amuro‐Sakhalin nationalities of the south. Further research is needed at individual levels to explain the very high risks and the differences among the ethnic groups.
