Description

Junli Liu and co-authors count the cancers caused by human papillomavirus across China and project them forward, in a study published in 2026. Registry data spanning three decades fed the analysis. For 2013 to 2017 they estimate about 68,955 attributable cases in women and 3,463 in men, a rate over twenty times higher in women, dominated by cervical cancer.

Laryngeal cancer led the much smaller male burden. Rates varied widely between the twenty-five provinces studied, with cervical rates ranging roughly from six to well above the national figure per hundred thousand. Trend models separated age, period, and birth-cohort effects, and Bayesian projections run to 2032. The geography argues for vaccination and screening efforts aimed where the burden concentrates.
