Description

Xiao Li and co-authors chart the world burden of pancreatic cancer in a study whose head gives the year as 2024. Pancreatic cancer is one of the deadliest cancers, with most patients found late. The team pulled case, death, and lost-health-year counts from a global health data bank. They cover the years 2019 and 2021, with a forecast to 2044.

In 2021 the world saw about 508,532 new cases, just over half in men. Deaths rose 3.9 percent over the two years, to near 505,752. Lost health years rose to 11.3 million. The highest death rates sat in Greenland and Monaco. Cases and deaths peaked at ages 70 to 74. By 2044, new cases may pass 875,000 a year.
