يتسبب السرطان وحده بوفاة 7.6 مليون شخص كل عام. ووفقاً لتقديرات منظمة الصحة العالمية فإن وفيات السرطان في منطقة شرق البحر الأبيض المتوسط سترتفع من 9.4% في عام 2015 إلى 12.3% في عام 2030 من مجموع الوفيات. وتستند هذه التقديرات على أثر النمو السكاني والشيخوخة، إضافة لزيادة التعرض لعوامل تزيد الإصابة بالسرطان، مثل التدخين والنظام الغذائي غير الصحي، والخمول البدني والإدمان على الكحول والتلوث البيئي، مما سيؤدي إلى زيادة عبء السرطان. لذلك أجريت الدراسة الوصفية الحالية لتقييم بعض عوامل الخطورة المرتبطة بمرض السرطان. حيث طبقت هذه الدراسة على عينة متاحة قوامها 100 مريض سرطان في قسم الأورام في مشفى تشرين الجامعي في مدينة اللاذقية. وقد استخدم لهذه الغاية استبيان تم تطويره من قبل الباحثة. أظهرت النتائج أن هناك العديد من عوامل الخطورة التي يمكن الوقاية منها، أهمها التدخين وتناول الوجبات المفرزة وحفظ الأغذية في أوعية بلاستيكية ووجود أبراج الاتصالات جانب أماكن السكن أو العمل. وأوصت الدراسة بضرورة إجراء دورات للتثقيف الصحي حول السرطان وعوامل الخطورة المؤهبة، وتفعيل دور المؤسسات والمنظمات في الوقاية من عوامل الخطورة، والقيام بأبحاث أخرى على مستوى الجمهورية.
Cancer alone kills 7.6 million people every year. According to World Health Organization (WHO) estimates, cancer deaths in the Eastern Mediterranean Region will increase from 9.4% in 2015 to 12.3% in 2030 of all deaths. These estimates are based on the impact of population growth and aging, as well as increased exposure to factors that increase the incidence of cancer, such as smoking, unhealthy diet, physical inactivity, alcoholism and environmental pollution, which will lead to a higher burden of cancer. Therefore, the current descriptive study was conducted to assess some of the risk factors associated with cancer. This study was applied to a sample of 100 cancer patients available in the Oncology Department at Tishreen University Hospital in Lattakia city. A questionnaire developed by the researcher was used for this purpose. The results showed that there are many risk factors that can be prevented, the most important of which are smoking, eating secreted meals, preserving food in plastic containers, and the presence of communication towers next to places of residence or work. The study recommended the necessity of conducting health education sessions about cancer and predisposing risk factors, activating the role of institutions and organizations in preventing risk factors, and conducting other research at the republic level.
