  • Epidemiological characteristics of liver cancer worldwide and in China: an interpretation of global cancer statistics 2022

    ObjectiveTo understand the latest epidemiological situation of liver cancer worldwide and in China. MethodsThis team organized and briefly interpreted the results of the two reports, the International Agency for Research on Cancer team released the latest global cancer statistics report in its authoritative journal, CA: A Cancer Journal for Clinicians, in April 2024, the research team from the National Center for Chronic and Noncommunicable Disease Control and Prevention at the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention published an article in the Lancet Public Health on the changes in cancer burden in China from 2005 to 2020. The epidemiological trends of liver cancer worldwide and in China from 2018 to 2022, the changes in age-standardized incidencerate by world standard population (ASIRW) and age-standardized mortality rate by world standard population (ASMRW) of liver cancer in countries with different human development index (HDI) and income levels in the world in 2022, the incidence and death of liver cancer in different age groups in the world and China in 2022, and the changes in the disease burden of liver cancer in China from 2005 to 2020 were anlyzed. ResultsIn 2022, there were 865 269 new cases and 757 948 deaths of liver cancer globally, it was the sixth most common malignancy and the third leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. The incidence and mortality of liver cancer worldwide and in China from 2018 to 2022 tended to be stable or declining, which in men were higher than those in women, and which in all population and males in China were higher than those in the world. The ASIRW and ASMRW were the highest in the countries with high HDI and upper-middle income levels. With the increase of age, the ASIRW and ASMRW of liver cancer continued to increase in the world and in China. The average annual percentage changes (AAPCs) in the deaths, ASMRW, year of life loss, and age-standardized year of life loss for all age groups in China from 2005 to 2020 were negative, indicating a downward trend for each of these indicators. The ASMRW of liver cancer increased with the increasing of age in 2020 in China. ConclusionsLiver cancer continues to pose a significant disease burden worldwide and in China. Therefore, implementing primary and secondary prevention strategies for liver cancer in the future is a major measure for its prevention and control. Additionally, continuous efforts are needed to ensure multidisciplinary and standardized management of liver cancer throughout its course.
