Global cancer statistics 2018: GLOBOCAN estimates of incidence and mortality worldwide for 36 cancers in 185 countries

TL;DR: A status report on the global burden of cancer worldwide using the GLOBOCAN 2018 estimates of cancer incidence and mortality produced by the International Agency for Research on Cancer, with a focus on geographic variability across 20 world regions.

Global Cancer Statistics 2020: GLOBOCAN Estimates of Incidence and Mortality Worldwide for 36 Cancers in 185 Countries.

TL;DR: The GLOBOCAN 2020 estimates of cancer incidence and mortality produced by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) as mentioned in this paper show that female breast cancer has surpassed lung cancer as the most commonly diagnosed cancer, with an estimated 2.3 million new cases (11.7%), followed by lung cancer, colorectal (11 4.4%), liver (8.3%), stomach (7.7%) and female breast (6.9%), and cervical cancer (5.6%) cancers.

Epidemiology of Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma.

TL;DR: Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma has been understudied, but growing infrastructure in more high-incidence countries will allow rapid progress in understanding, and large genome-wide association studies have been conducted with ethnic Chinese subjects only; more studies are called for in the rest of Asia and Africa.

Global Burden of 5 Major Types of Gastrointestinal Cancer

TL;DR: There was a uniform decrease in gastric cancer incidence but an increasing incidence of colorectal cancer in formerly low-incidence regions over the studied time period, and slight increases in incidence of liver and pancreatic cancer in some high-income regions.

The global, regional, and national burden of colorectal cancer and its attributable risk factors in 195 countries and territories, 1990–2017: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2017

Farin Kamangar, +180 more
TL;DR: Although the overall colorectal cancer age-standardised death rate has been decreasing at the global level, the increasing age- standardised incidence rate in most countries poses a major public health challenge across the world.

Cancer statistics, 2016

TL;DR: Overall cancer incidence trends are stable in women, but declining by 3.1% per year in men, much of which is because of recent rapid declines in prostate cancer diagnoses, and brain cancer has surpassed leukemia as the leading cause of cancer death among children and adolescents.

Body-mass index and incidence of cancer: a systematic review and meta-analysis of prospective observational studies

TL;DR: Assessment of the strength of associations between BMI and different sites of cancer and differences in these associations between sex and ethnic groups should inform the exploration of biological mechanisms that link obesity with cancer.

TL;DR: There is a strong and probably causal relation between gastroesophageal reflux and esophageaal adenocarcinoma, and the relation between reflux And gastric cardia is relatively weak.

Cancer survival in Europe 1999-2007 by country and age: results of EUROCARE--5-a population-based study

TL;DR: The major advances in cancer management that occurred up to 2007 seem to have resulted in improved survival in Europe, although results for lung cancer in some regions (central and eastern Europe) might be affected by overestimation.
