Discussion

Epidemiological analysis reveals regional disparities in ovarian cancer rates, highlighting socioeconomic influences.

Ovarian cancer incidence has nearly doubled since 1990, now reflecting increased burden despite overall declining age-standardized rates.
In 2022, ovarian cancer accounted for 3.4% of new cancer cases, with notable increases driven by population growth and aging dynamics.
Assessment using GBD 2021 data across 204 countries highlighted distinct regional trends in ovarian cancer incidence and mortality rates.
Sustained declines in high-SDI regions contrast with rising rates in low- and middle-SDI areas, underscoring care gaps.

Liu et al. (2025) studied this question.
