Global and regional trends in the incidence and mortality burden of endometrial cancer, 1990-2019: Updated results from the Global Burden of Disease Study, 2019.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The disease burdens for endometrial cancer (EC) vary across different countries and geographical regions and change every year. Herein, we reported the updated results of the Global Burden of Disease Study 2019 on EC with respect to age-standardized incidence and mortality from 1990 to 2019.

Methods

The annual percentage change (APC) of incidence and mortality was evaluated using joinpoint regression analysis to examine the temporal trends during the same timeframe in terms of the global landscape, different sociodemographic indices (SDI), and geographic regions. The relationship between Human Development Index (HDI) and incidence and mortality was additionally explored.

Results

The age-standardized incidence rates (ASIRs) revealed a significant average glo
