Cancer statistics for the year 2020: An overview

Jacques Ferlay et al.

Summary: The study briefly reviews the methods and data sources used in compiling the IARC GLOBOCAN cancer statistics for 2020 and summarizes the main results. It estimated that there were nearly 19.3 million new cancer cases and almost 10 million cancer deaths worldwide in 2020, with the most commonly diagnosed cancers being female breast cancer and lung cancer, and the most common causes of cancer death being lung cancer and liver cancer.

Lung Cancer Screening with Low-Dose CT in Smokers: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Theresa Hunger et al.

Summary: The review found that screening for lung cancer in (former) smokers with low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) can significantly reduce disease-specific mortality. However, the screening may have a high false positive rate and carries the risk of overdiagnosis.
