Global cancer statistics, 2012
TLDR
A substantial portion of cancer cases and deaths could be prevented by broadly applying effective prevention measures, such as tobacco control, vaccination, and the use of early detection tests. Expand
Global Cancer Incidence and Mortality Rates and Trends—An Update
TLDR
Applied cancer control measures are needed to reduce rates in HICs and arrest the growing burden in LMICs, as well as for lung, colorectal, breast, and prostate cancer, although some low- and middle-income countries (LMIC) now count among those with the highest rates. Expand
Cancer Facts and Figures for Hispanics/Latinos 2015-2017
Ovarian cancer statistics, 2018

Oropharyngeal cancer rates increased among both men and women in a number of countries where tobacco use has declined, perhaps due to the emerging importance of human papillomavirus infection, whereas they declined in some Asian countries. Expand
Global Cancer in Women: Burden and Trends
TLDR
The burden of cancer among women could be substantially reduced in both HICs and LMICs through broad and equitable implementation of effective interventions, including tobacco control, HPV and HBV vaccination, and screening (breast, cervix, and colorectum). Expand
Cancer statistics for Asian Americans, Native Hawaiians, and Pacific Islanders, 2016: Converging incidence in males and females
TLDR
The diversity within the AANHPI population is reflected in the disparate cancer risk by subgroup, and the overall incidence rate in Samoan men is more than twice that in Asian Indian/Pakistani men. Expand
