Abstract (English): Objective: Descriptive analysis of Medline-indexed biomedical literature on economic aspects of cancer (mainly cost studies or economic evaluations) published between 2001 and 2010. Methods: Using GoPubMed, we searched Medline using the following search strategy: ("Neoplasms"[Majr] AND ("Costs and Cost Analysis"[Majr] OR "Economics"[Majr] OR "economics"[Subheading])) AND Journal Article [ptyp] AND "2001:2010"[dp]. We identified the number of publications per year, types of cancer considered, journals where they were published, countries and percentage of publications on economic topics of all cancer related publications. Results: We retrieved 5.886 references on economic aspects of cancer. The number of publications increased 86% in the ten-year period. We identified 1.309 different journals; Cancer, with 190 publications, was the top journal, followed by the Journal of Clinical Oncology with 135 and Pharmacoeconomics with 76. United States was the most productive country with 2.453 publications (41.6%); Colombia with 8 references, was the third Latin American country. The top cancer site was breast, with 1.239 references; colorectal with 753; lung with 516; cervical cancer with 477, and prostate with 403. Conclusions: The number of publications on economic aspects of cancer has grown steadily over the last decade. Research has concentrated on the cancers of developed countries. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

La estrategia de búsqueda fue: ("Neoplasms"[Majr] AND ("Costs and Cost Analysis"[Majr] OR "Economics"[Majr] OR "economics"[Subheading])) AND Journal Article[ptyp] AND "2001:2010"[dp]. Se identificaron, entre otras variables, número de publicaciones por año, tipos de cáncer estudiados, revistas, países de publicación y porcentaje de publicaciones sobre temas económicos relacionadas al total de publicaciones en cáncer. Resultados: Se recuperaron 5.886 referencias que tratan sobre aspectos económicos del cáncer. La tendencia fue al incremento del número de publicaciones, con un crecimiento en diez años de 86%. Se identificaron 1.309 revistas diferentes, Cancer con 190 publicaciones fue la revista con más publicaciones, seguida de Journal of Clinical Oncology con 135 y Pharmacoeconomics con 76 referencias. Estados Unidos fue el país más productivo con 2.453 publicaciones (41,6%); Colombia con 8 publicaciones, fue el tercer país latinoamericano. Los cánceres más investigados fueron seno, con 1.239; colorrectal con 753; pulmón con 516, cérvix con 477, y próstata con 403. Conclusiones: El número de publicaciones sobre literatura económica del cáncer ha crecido sostenidamente durante el periodo estudiado. Las neoplasias de los países desarrollados son las más estudiadas. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
