AI Article Synopsis

  • The study focuses on the trends and impact of early-onset, intermediate-onset, and later-onset gastric cancer using data from 2019, revealing significant differences in incidence and mortality rates across various demographics.
  • From 1990 to 2019, early-onset gastric cancer (EOGC) declined more slowly than other types, with projections indicating a substantial increase in EOGC cases from 2020 to 2035, while intermediate-onset is expected to remain stable.
  • The findings underline the need for targeted cancer-control strategies, especially for underrepresented groups like those with early-onset gastric cancer, to address their unique health burdens.

Article Abstract

Background: Evidence for estimating and predicting the temporal trends of gastric cancer in different age groups is lacking.

Methods: Data of early-, intermediate-, and later-onset gastric cancer (EOGC, IOGC, LOGC) was from the Global Burden of Diseases Study 2019. The incidences and deaths due to EOGC, IOGC, and LOGC were analyzed by period, sex, geographic location, and sociodemographic incidence. Temporal trends were evaluated by estimated annual percentage changes (EAPCs). The incidences and temporal trends were predicted until 2035.

Results: There were substantial differences in the incidence and death rates of the three populations at global, regional and national levels in 2019. From 1990 to 2019, EOGC (EAPC, -0.84) showed a slower decrease in incidence rate worldwide than IOGC (EAPC, -1.77) and LOGC (EAPC, -1.10), whereas EOGC and LOGC showed slower decreases in mortality than IOGC. The worldwide incidence rate of EOGC (EAPC, 1.44) was predicted to increase substantially from 2020 to 2035, while that for LOGC (EAPC, 0.43) was predicted to increase slightly and that for IOGC (EAPC, -0.01) was predicted to remain stable over the same period.

Conclusions: This study revealed differences in the burdens and temporal trends of EOGC, IOGC, and LOGC, and highlighted the importance of tailored cancer-control measures in neglected subpopulations, especially in patients with EOGC.
