Global, regional, and national disease burden and economic costs of cervical cancer (1991-2021): a multidimensional data synthesis analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

Cervical cancer remains a significant global health concern, particularly in less developed regions. This study aims to assess the global, regional, and national burden of cervical cancer from 1991 to 2021.

Methods

This study synthesizes data from the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) Study 2021, WHO health expenditure databases, and published cost estimates to comprehensively assess the epidemiological and economic burden of cervical cancer from 1991 to 2021. We analyzed age-standardized rates (ASRs) of prevalence (ASPR), incidence (ASIR), mortality (ASMR), and disability-adjusted life years (ASDR) using GBD 2021 data. Temporal trends were quantified via Joinpoint regression-derived average annual percentage changes (AAPCs). Direct medical costs were estimated by in
