The global and regional burden of early-onset gastric cancer (15-49 years, 1990-2021): incidence and mortality with projections to 2030
Early-onset gastric cancer burden shows complex patterns: while rates have decreased over 3 decades, absolute cases and deaths increased due to demographic expansion. Disparities persist across gender, geography, and development levels. These findings highlight the need for targeted interventions in high-risk populations and regions to address inequities. Policymakers should prioritize surveillance and prevention strategies tailored to evolving epidemiological trends.
