Brief Summary
Stage migration occurs when patients sound to have better survival or increased incidence rates at the early stage at diagnosis due to early detection of the disease. As carcinoid tumors are rare and there are no data supporting stage migration, the aim of this study was to perform comprehensive trends analysis in addition to survival analysis over two decades.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
The percent change and annual percent change for gastrointestinal carcinoids
2000-2022
the percent change and annual percent change for gastrointestinal carcinoids across different stage distribution at diagnosis (localized, regional, distant, unknown)
2000-2022
Eligibility Criteria
the investigators analyzed the data from cancer registries participating in Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) software for patients diagnosed with primary GI carcinoid tumors from 2000-2022 using a rate session to calculate the percent change and annual percent change in addition to incidence rates.
You may qualify if:
- patients with gastrointestinal carcinoid tumors
You may not qualify if:
- patients with unknown age data
