Regional and gender disparities in tobacco-related esophageal cancer: Insights from the Global Burden of Disease study 1990–2021
The findings highlight the need for targeted public health interventions to address the rising burden of TREC, particularly in regions with high smoking rates. While population growth and aging are key contributors, improvements in public health policies have the potential to mitigate the TREC burden in certain areas. Further research is necessary to explore additional factors influencing TREC epidemiology and to quantify the observed regional and gender differences.
