Spatiotemporal analysis of gastric cancer incidence in Iran from 2014 to 2018: a geospatial epidemiological study
This geospatial analysis provides crucial insights into Iran's significant yet geographically variable GC burden. These findings underscore the importance of spatially-informed cancer surveillance and support further investigation into the underlying drivers of geographic variation in GC incidence. While not intended to guide direct interventions, the patterns observed may help shape future epidemiologic studies or hypothesis-driven screening strategies.
