Table 1. Territories of the Bryansk region grouped by the degree of chemical, radioactive, and combined contamination and by the incidence of primary UBC among women aged 18–80 years (per 100,000 population) (2000–2019) [19]
Note: * — the difference (in %) from the all-Russian indicator of primary incidence (2000–2019).
Table 2. Comparative assessment of the primary incidence rates of high-, moderate-, and low-grade forms of UBC among women aged 41–60 living in areas of the Bryansk region with varying environmental conditions, 2000–2019 (per 100,000 population)
Note: the differences between the groups by the areas are insignificant at p > 0.05.
Table 3. Relative risk of the primary incidence of high-, moderate-, and low-grade forms of UBC among women aged 41–60 living in areas of the Bryansk region with varying environmental conditions, 2000–2019 (per 100,000 population)
