Trends in liver cancer burden in China and G20: a comparative analysis using GBD 2021.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

To compare liver cancer trends and risk factors in China with those in G20 countries (1990-2021) to inform prevention and resource allocation.

Methods

GBD 2021 data for liver cancer in China and G20 countries (1990-2021) were analyzed. Age-standardized incidence rates (ASIR), age-standardized mortality rates (ASMR), and age-standardized disability-adjusted life-years rates (ASDR) were computed using standard population weights. Joinpoint regression estimates the annual percent change (APC; the year-on-year rate of change within each log-linear segment) and the average annual percent change (AAPC; the summary average trend across the entire period). Decomposition analysis partitioned changes into aging, population growth, and epidemiological factors. Trends in ASMR
