Lip and Oral Cavity Cancer Incidence and Mortality Rates Associated with Smoking and Chewing Tobacco Use and the Human Development Index in 172 Countries Worldwide: An Ecological Study 2019–2020

Abstract: Tobacco use is associated with diseases worldwide, including cancer. This is one of the major public health problems globally, causing more than 19 million new cases in 2020. Lip and oral cavity cancer (LOCC) is neoplastic growth in the tongue, gums, and lips. The objective of this ecological study was to quantify the strength of the association between incidence and mortality of LOCC, with tobacco use and with the Human Development Index (HDI). Incidence and mortality data on LOCC were obtained for 172 countr… Show more

“…However, a deeper analysis revealed that the highest burden of cancer occurred in countries with moderate and low HDI, suggesting a poorer survival prognosis. 31 A previous study on lip and oral cavity cancer (LOCC) 32 followed the same methodology. It found correlations between various socioeconomic indicators and tobacco use, with LOCC incidence and mortality.…”

“…It is generally accepted that low SEP is strongly associated with adverse behavioral, general health and oral health outcomes among children worldwide, and, in fact, is partially responsible for these effects [29][30][31][32][33]. Although previous studies have established SEP as a potent determinant of health, the biological mechanisms underlying this relationship are not fully understood [34].…”

“…With increasing incidence and mortality rates, oral cancers rank as the 13th most common cancer worldwide, with an estimated 377,713 new cases and 177,757 deaths in 2020. 28 , 29 The consumption of tobacco and areca nut significantly increases the risk of oral cancers. Specifically, oral cancers cause larger burdens in developing countries due to delayed diagnosis and limited treatment opportunities.…”

“…Specifically, oral cancers cause larger burdens in developing countries due to delayed diagnosis and limited treatment opportunities. 29 Among all the types of oral cancers, OSCCs are the most common, with an estimated 40% higher incidence rate in 2040. 30 Summarizing the alterations in the exosomes in OSCCs could enhance our understanding of malignant progression.…”
