Summary: Hong Kong has an ageing Chinese population with high life expectancy and a rising number of cancer cases. The increasing trend in cancer diagnoses in Hong Kong over the past decades is mainly attributed to population growth and ageing, with changes in disease risk inhibiting this trend.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the global patterns and trends of lung cancer. The burden of lung cancer is still unsatisfactory, especially in developing countries like China. The incidence and mortality rates of lung cancer vary among different countries and regions, with higher rates in men than in women. In developed countries such as the USA, the incidence of lung cancer has been decreasing, while in China, it has been increasing, particularly among individuals aged 50 to 59 years. Therefore, there is a need to strengthen health education, accelerate the establishment of tobacco control policies and regulations, and improve early cancer screening awareness to reduce the future burden of lung cancer.

Summary: The study revealed that South Korea has the second highest incidence rates of colorectal cancer globally, with major modifiable lifestyle factors including decreased exercise, obesity, alcohol consumption, smoking, and processed meat intake. The results indicate that dietary and lifestyle interventions to prevent CRC should be tailored based on sex and age.

Summary: Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide. Tobacco smoking is the main risk factor for lung cancer, while environmental and occupational factors can also contribute to its incidence. Low-dose CT screening has been proven effective in reducing lung cancer mortality. This review provides an overview of the global epidemiology of lung cancer, including risk factors, risk reduction efforts, and screening policies.

Summary: Early-onset colorectal cancer, which accounts for 10% of cases, is increasing in incidence, particularly in high-income countries. Patients often present with advanced disease in the left colon, and one in six patients has deficient DNA mismatch repair. Screening is recommended to begin at 45 years of age.

Summary: Lung cancer remains a leading cause of cancer mortality, with non-small cell lung cancer being the most common type. Targeted therapy can provide durable responses, and advances in molecular and immunohistochemical techniques allow for personalized medicine.

Summary: Lung cancer is the second most common cancer and the leading cause of cancer death worldwide. Its incidence and mortality rates are associated with Human Development Index, Gross Domestic Products, and smoking prevalence. Most countries show increasing trends in lung cancer incidence and mortality among females, but decreasing trends among males. Measures to control the increasing trends among females and early cancer detection should be implemented in these regions.

Summary: Several reports have shown an increasing incidence of colorectal cancer (CRC) among younger individuals. However, variations in CRC incidence or mortality across age subgroups in different geographical locations are not well understood. This study aims to examine the time trends in CRC incidence and mortality in Canada by age group and geography using a population-based, retrospective cohort design.

Summary: The study found a decreasing trend in lung cancer incidence among never smoking men in Finland, while there was no significant change among never smoking women. Additionally, it was observed that greater height in women was associated with an increased risk of lung cancer.

Summary: The study predicts an increase in the number of cancer patients in Iran by 2025, with changes in risk and population structure contributing to this rise. Breast, colorectal, and stomach cancers are the most common types in Iran and are expected to remain the leading cancers nationally in 2025.

Summary: During the second wave of the pandemic in late 2020, COVID-19-related deaths in Germany increased faster in more deprived districts. Men and women in the most deprived districts had mortality risks 1.52 and 1.44 times higher, respectively, than those in the most affluent districts.
