(a) The cancer incidence rate (i) and the proportion of incidence cases affecting reproductive people, i.e. age < 45 years, (p) for different organs and tissues. The incidence rate is per 100,000, age adjusted and from individuals without distinction of origin or sex. These data (i and p) correspond to the period 2011–2015. When available, the proportion of cancerous and reproductive people alive 5 years after the diagnosis is reported (s) and correspond to the period 2008–2014. (b) Relation between the cancer incidence and the 5-year survival rate for reproductive people, i.e. age < 45 years. Pearson’s correlation test is reported. Data come from the SEER Cancer Statistics Review, 1975–2015, National Cancer Institute [35]⁠
