Global incidence and mortality trends of gastric cancer and predicted mortality of gastric cancer by 2035.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

To study the historical global incidence and mortality trends of gastric cancer and predicted mortality of gastric cancer by 2035.

Methods

Incidence data were retrieved from the Cancer Incidence in Five Continents (CI5) volumes I-XI, and mortality data were obtained from the latest update of the World Health Organization (WHO) mortality database. We used join-point regression analysis to examine historical incidence and mortality trends and used the package NORDPRED in R to predict the number of deaths and mortality rates by 2035 by country and sex.

Results

More than 1,089,000 new cases of gastric cancer and 769,000 related deaths were reported in 2020. The average annual percent change (AAPC) in the incidence of gastric cancer from 2003 to 2012 among the ma
