Abstract

Objective To analyze the incidence, incidence trends, and survival of marginal zone lymphomas (MZLs) in Girona and to describe these indicators based on the location in the case of extranodal MZLs.Methods Population-based study of MZL collected in the Girona Cancer Registry, 1994-2018. Sociodemographic data, tumor location, and stage were obtained from clinical records. Crude (CR) and age-adjusted (ASR(E)) incidence rates expressed per 100,000 person-years (p-y) were calculated. Joinpoint regression models were used for the trend analysis according to the MZL group. Five-year observed and net survival were analyzed.Results A total of 472 MZLs were included, 44 (9.3%) were nodal, 288 (61.0%) extranodal, 122 (25.9%) splenic, and the rest (n = 18) MZL, NOS. The CR for the MZL was 2.89 x 100,000 p-y (95% CI: 2.63-3.15), the ASR(E) was 3.26 x 100,000 p-y (95% CI: 2.97-3.57), and the annual percentage change (APC) was 1.6 (95% CI: 0.5-2.7). The ASR(E) for nodal MZL was 0.30 x 100,000 p-y (95% CI: 0.22-0.41) and showed an APC of 2.9% (95% CI: -16.4-26.6). For extranodal MZL, the ASR(E) was 1.98 x 100,000 p-y (95% CI: 1.76-2.23) and the APC was -0.4 (95% CI: -2.0-1.2). The most frequent locations of this type of MZL were the gastric (35.4%), skin (13.2%), and respiratory system (11.8%). The ASR(E) of the splenic MZL was 0.85 (95% CI: 0.71-1.02) with an APC of 12.8 (95% CI: 2.5-24.0). The 5-year net survival of MZL was 82.1% (95% CI: 76.3-86.5).Conclusions This study reveals differences in the incidence and trend of the incidence of MZL according to the subgroup, showing a significant increase in the overall MZL mainly due to splenic MZL type.

Impact and social visibility

From the perspective of influence or social adoption, and based on metrics associated with mentions and interactions provided by agencies specializing in calculating the so-called "Alternative or Social Metrics," we can highlight as of 2025-12-13:

  • The use, from an academic perspective evidenced by the Altmetric agency indicator referring to aggregations made by the personal bibliographic manager Mendeley, gives us a total of: 2.
  • The use of this contribution in bookmarks, code forks, additions to favorite lists for recurrent reading, as well as general views, indicates that someone is using the publication as a basis for their current work. This may be a notable indicator of future more formal and academic citations. This claim is supported by the result of the "Capture" indicator, which yields a total of: 2 (PlumX).

With a more dissemination-oriented intent and targeting more general audiences, we can observe other more global scores such as:

  • The Total Score from Altmetric: 9.
  • The number of mentions on the social network X (formerly Twitter): 12 (Altmetric).

It is essential to present evidence supporting full alignment with institutional principles and guidelines on Open Science and the Conservation and Dissemination of Intellectual Heritage. A clear example of this is:

  • The work has been submitted to a journal whose editorial policy allows open Open Access publication.
