The Global, Regional, and National Burdens of Cervical Cancer Attributable to Smoking From 1990 to 2019: Population-Based Study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Cervical cancer is the fourth most common cause of cancer death in women worldwide. Smoking is one of the risk factors for cervical cancer. Understanding the global distribution of the disease burden of cervical cancer attributable to smoking and related changes is of clear significance for the prevention and control of cervical cancer in key populations and for tobacco control. As far as we know, research on the burden of cervical cancer attributable to smoking is lacking.

Objective

We estimated the disease burden and mortality of cervical cancer attributable to smoking and related trends over time at the global, regional, and national levels.

Methods

Data were obtained from the Global Burden of Disease study website. Age-standardized rates were used to fa
