Description
Chen and co-authors chart how the burden of brain and central nervous system cancers changed from 1990 to 2021. These cancers are fairly rare but cause much disability and many deaths. The team used Global Burden of Disease 2021 data for 204 countries and 21 regions. They tracked rates of new cases, people living with the disease, deaths, and healthy years lost. Rates were adjusted for age to allow fair comparison.
The global rate of new cases rose from 3.75 to 4.28 per 100,000 over the period. Trends were broken down by region and by level of social development. A forecast model projects the burden through 2035. The results can help planners target screening and care resources.
