Global, regional, and national burden of gastrointestinal cancers in early onset and young women, 1990–2021: analysis of data from the Global Burden of Disease study 2021
GI cancers exhibit considerable regional and national variations in incidence, prevalence, mortality, and DALYs. Future research should focus on identifying risk factors in young women and optimizing early screening. Public health policies need to allocate resources based on regional disease burden and socio-economic status. Robust cancer registries and cross-resource sharing platforms for prevention and treatment are essential to reduce the global GI cancer burden in this population.
