Cancer deaths among men expected to rise 94 percent worldwide by 2050: Study

New research projects that cancer cases in men will increase by 84% by 2050, with deaths expected to rise by 94%, especially among those aged 65 and older. The study also predicts a significant increase in cases in lower income countries and among working-age groups. Factors such as higher risk behaviors, lower participation in prevention activities, and less usage of available treatments contribute to this pattern. The researchers recommend infrastructure improvements and the expansion of universal health coverage to mitigate these disparities.
