Sumario:WHAT IS ALREADY KNOWN ABOUT THIS TOPIC? Cancer is a major global public health problem and the leading cause of death in China. China has a large population, and therefore has a significant proportion of the global burden of cancer. WHAT IS ADDED BY THIS REPORT? The age-standardized incidence of cancer has increased in China, while the cancer mortality rate has decreased. Compared with younger age groups, individuals over 70 have a greater burden of cancer. Digestive tract cancer and breast cancer should be targeted for prevention, treatment, and control. WHAT ARE THE IMPLICATIONS FOR PUBLIC HEALTH PRACTICES? To effectively reduce the burden of cancer, early screening of key populations and age groups should be strengthened, and targeted and precise prevention and control strategies should be adopted.
