Burden of thyroid cancer in the older adult aged 60 and over from 1990 to 2021 and forecast of the situation in 2030
The global disease burden of thyroid cancer has been increasing, particularly in the older adult. While high-SDI regions experienced a decrease in burden, low-SDI regions saw an increase. Predictions suggest that by 2030, the mortality rate and disease burden may remain stable with slow annual changes. However, attention should be given to the growing burden in low-income areas and the impact of socio-economic factors.
