Disparities by province, age, and sex in site-specific cancer burden attributable to 23 potentially modifiable risk factors in China: a comparative risk assessment

Ovarian cancer in europe: cross-sectional trends in incidence and mortality in 28 countries: 1953 -2000

TL;DR: Recent trends in ovarian cancer have led to a leveling of rates across various areas of the continent, although a 2.5‐fold variation was still observed in the late 1990s between the highest mortality rate of 9.3/100,000 in Denmark and the lowest one of 3.6 in Portugal.

The European cancer burden in 2020: Incidence and mortality estimates for 40 countries and 25 major cancers.

TL;DR: The most common causes of cancer deaths are: lung (380,000), colorectal (250,000, breast (140,000) and pancreatic (130,000); these four cancers account for half the overall cancer burden in Europe as mentioned in this paper.

TL;DR: Global inequalities in survival from childhood leukaemia have narrowed with time but remain very wide for both ALL and AML, which provides useful information for health policy makers on the effectiveness of health-care systems and for cancer policy makers to reduce inequalities in childhood cancer survival.
