Description
Zijing Yu and colleagues quantify deaths and disability from lip and oral cavity cancer caused by tobacco in a 2026 analysis. They track both smoked and chewed tobacco over 1990 to 2021 and project trends to 2050.
Using Global Burden of Disease 2021 data, the team compared rates by sex, region, and development level. Total deaths from this cancer nearly doubled, yet the age-standardized death rate fell from 1.07 to 0.94 per 100,000 people. The drop came from smoking alone, while chewing tobacco harm rose slightly, hit women hardest, and stayed highest in South Asia. Forecasts to 2050 show smoking harm still falling but no gain for chewing tobacco.
