The Global, Regional, and National Burden of Tracheal, Bronchus, and Lung Cancer Caused by Smoking: An Analysis Based on the Global Burden of Disease Study 2021.

ABSTRACT: Background: Smoking is the primary risk factor for tracheal, bronchus, and lung (TBL) cancer. Objective: This study aims to explore the epidemiological trends of smoking-attributable TBL cancer from 1990 to 2021. Methods: Mortality and disability-adjusted life-years (DALYs) data for smoking-related TBL cancer from 1990 to 2021 were sourced from the Global Burden of Disease Study (GBD) 2021. Estimated annual percentage changes (EAPCs) were calculated to evaluate trends in age-standardized mortality rates (ASMRs) and age-standardized DALY rates (ASDRs). Additionally, the relationship between disease burden, EAPCs, and the sociodemographic index (SDI) was assessed. Findings: Compared with 1990, both the mortality and DALYs due to smoking-related TBL cancer substant
