Global, regional, and national epidemiology of thyroid cancer in middle-aged and elderly adults from 1990 to 2021
The rising burden of thyroid cancer in aging populations calls for integrated health policies emphasizing prevention, early detection, and public education. Efforts should focus on reducing modifiable risks, particularly high BMI, and developing age- and sex-specific interventions. Addressing gender disparities and regional inequalities should also be central to global and national cancer control strategies.
