點燃你的肺 : 肺癌成因之探討

Abstract

中文摘要

近幾年科技發展快速，各個領域隨之進步，醫療技術也不例外。雖然許多疾病已經可以被完全治癒，不過有些疾病卻還是不能完全被治癒，像是「癌症」。2018年所有癌症中有著最高發病率以及致死率的癌症即為「肺癌」，所以引發本文探討我國肺癌成因的主要研究動機。本研究將使用我國97年到106年肺癌死亡人數資料分別與可能引起肺癌的因子進行迴歸分析及獨立樣本t檢定之探討，以了解肺癌的死亡與工廠數、全國18歲以上吸菸比率有無顯著的線性迴歸關係，並比較在空氣品質好與不好的情況下，肺癌發生率之差異情況，藉由此分析結果觀察什麼因素可能會影響肺癌，並可預先構想解決對策，以防止其發生。

Abstract

In recent years, science and technology have developed rapidly, and various fields have also improved. Medical technology is no exception. Although many diseases can be cured by advanced medical technology, some diseases cannot be completely cured, such as "cancer". The cancer with the highest incidence and mortality in all cancers in 2018 is "lung cancer", so it motivates us to explore the causes of the lung cancer in Taiwan. The regression analyses and an independent sample t-test are used for investigating the relationship of the number of deaths of lung cancer from 2008 to 2017, the number of factories, and the rate of smoking people above eighteen-year-old. The results of our analyses present that there is no significant linear relationship between the smoking rate and the number of deaths of lung cancer, but there are a significant linear relationship between the number of factories and the number of deaths of lung cancer, and a significant difference of the ratios of death between poor and good air qualities. Therefore, what factors may affect lung cancer and how to prevent the occurrence of lung cancer are investigated in our study.
