2020 Latest global cancer data: Breast cancer has overtaken lung cancer as the world's largest cancer, with more than 3 million cancer deaths in China each year

Recently, the World Health Organization's International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) released the latest global cancer burden data for 2020.
estimated the latest morbidity, mortality and cancer trends for 36 cancer types in 185 countries around the world.
the latest estimates show that there will be 19.29 million new cancer cases worldwide in 2020, including 10.06 million for men and 9.23 million for women, and 9.96 million cancer deaths worldwide in 2020, including 5.53 million for men and 4.43 million for women.
2.26 million new cases of breast cancer worldwide, surpassing the 2.2 million cases of lung cancer, which replaced lung cancer as the world's largest cancer.
2020, there will be 4.57 million new cancer cases in China, including 2.48 million for men and 2.09 million for women, and 3 million cancer deaths in China in 2020, including 1.82 million for men and 1.18 million for women.
The following are the specific data: China has the world's largest number of new cancer cases in 2020, including 4.57 million new cancers in China, accounting for 23.7% of the world, because China is the world's largest population, the number of new cancer cases far exceeds the rest of the world.

One of the most obvious changes in the world's latest global cancer burden data for the top 10 female cancer deaths in 2020 is the rapid increase in the number of new cases of breast cancer, which has overtaken lung cancer as the world's largest cancer, and the increase in the incidence of breast cancer, one of the root causes of which is the changing risk factors for breast cancer, such as delayed childbirth and reduced number of births, which are most evident in countries undergoing social and economic transformation, overweight and obesity, as well as lack of exercise, and the rise in breast cancer incidence worldwide.
, the cancer burden is expected to increase by 50 per cent by 2040 compared to 2020, when the number of new cancer cases will reach nearly 30 million, as the population ages.
this is most pronounced in countries undergoing social and economic transformation.
The increased burden of cancer is occurring at the same time as changes in common cancer types, and many countries are experiencing significant increases in the prevalence of known cancer risk factors, which are now prevalent in high-income industrialized countries, including smoking, unhealthy diets, obesity epidemics, and lack of exercise.
cancer prevention and treatment interventions need to be integrated into health plans at the national level, which is a key means of reducing the global cancer burden of the future and reducing the widening gap between countries in transition and countries in transition.
