Global disease burden of colorectal cancer attributable to high BMI has more than doubled over the past 30 years
The global burden of CRC attributable to high BMI doubled from 1990 to 2021, with increasing disparities across SDI regions, especially in the low- and middle-SDI areas. Urgent strategies focusing on obesity prevention, early detection, and equitable care are essential to reduce this burden and achieve Sustainable Development Goals by 2030.
