Research Article: Global, regional and country burden of high BMI-related liver cancer among individuals aged above 70: trends from 1990 to 2021 and projections to 2044
Abstract:
Background: Liver cancer (LC) is a major global health concern, being the fourth leading cause of cancer-related mortality. Older adults are more susceptible, though mortality rates for those over 70 are declining. However, disability from non-communicable diseases remains high. High body mass index (BMI) is a notable risk factor for LC, with high BMI-related liver cancer (HB-LC) being a major concern.
