  • Articles and reports: 82-003-X202300600002
    Description: Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) are a major public health concern impacting the lives of many Canadians. Among all TBIs, concussions are the most common. However, to date, the incidence of concussions among the Canadian population has remained unknown. To address this data surveillance gap, this study presents national estimates on the percentage of Canadians aged 12 years or older (excluding those living in the territories) who sustained one or more concussions in 2019.

  • Articles and reports: 82-003-X202200400001
    Description:

    Canadians have been gravely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, and adults living with children may have been disproportionately impacted. The objective of this study was to describe changes in chronic disease risk factors and current exercise habits among adults living with and without a child younger than 18 years old.

  • Articles and reports: 82-003-X202200300002
    Description:

    This study presents detailed tumour-based cancer prevalence estimates in Canada by sex, age group, cancer type and prevalence duration as of January 1, 2018.

    Release date: 2022-03-16

  • Stats in brief: 45-28-0001202100100018
    Description:

    Colorectal cancer screening, along with other health care services, was suspended in Canada in the initial phase of the COVID-19 pandemic response. This pause was deemed necessary to allow health care facilities to establish appropriate infection-control measures to prevent COVID-19 outbreaks and to reserve health system capacity for COVID-19 patients. The current article projects the impact of a three-month suspension of screening for colorectal cancer using a fecal test for average-risk individuals, and compares strategies to minimize the harm from screening interruptions. The projections come from OncoSim, a cancer microsimulation model co-developed by Statistics Canada and the Canadian Partnership Against Cancer.

  • Stats in brief: 45-28-0001202100100004
    Description:

    The risks of mortality due to COVID-19 have been found to be higher for some Canadians (e.g., older population, especially those living in long term care residences, etc.). For Canadians living in close quarters there could also be an increased risk. This article examines the rate of mortality due to COVID-19 associated with people living in different types of private dwellings in Quebec and Ontario. Additionally, the size of the household and the living arrangements are also explored among individuals.

  • Stats in brief: 45-28-0001202000100082
    Description:

    This article examines how the self-reported health and mental health of people with long-term health conditions or disabilities has changed since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic explored by age, sex and type of reported difficulty. Additionally, the rates of health service disruptions are explored by type of service and region.

  • Articles and reports: 82-003-X201501214293
    Description:

    The University of Wisconsin Cancer Intervention and Surveillance Modeling Network breast cancer microsimulation model was adapted to simulate breast cancer incidence and screening performance in Canada. The model considered effects of breast density on the sensitivity and specificity of screening. The model’s ability to predict age-specific incidence of breast cancer was assessed.

  • Articles and reports: 82-003-X201500414157
    Description:

    Using an ecological approach, this analysis estimates the incidence of colorectal cancer for the 1998-to-2009 period among the Aboriginal identity population of Ontario and among First Nations people living on Indian reserves in Ontario.

    Release date: 2015-04-15

  • Articles and reports: 82-003-X200900410934
    Geography: Canada
    Description:

    This study compares several major risk factors and chronic conditions in Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal populations not living on reserves in the North (Yukon, Northwest Territories, Nunavut) and in southern Canada at two time points. The data are from cycle 1.1 (2000/2001) and cycle 3.1 (2005/2006) of the Canadian Community Health Survey.

    Release date: 2009-10-21

  • Articles and reports: 82-003-X20020036599
    Geography: Canada
    Description:

    In 2000/01, 4.5% of Canadians aged 18 or older, an estimated 1.1 million, had diabetes. Advancing age, family history, sedentary leisure time and excess weight were associated with developing the disease.
