Global incidence and mortality of childhood leukemia and its relationship with the Human Development Index

Childhood leukemia (CL) is a major global concern, accounting for 33% of all new cancer cases and 31% of all cancer deaths in children aged 0-14 years. Our study aimed to analyze the global incidence and mortality rates of CL in 2020 and its relationship with the Human Development Index (HDI). In th...

description Childhood leukemia (CL) is a major global concern, accounting for 33% of all new cancer cases and 31% of all cancer deaths in children aged 0-14 years. Our study aimed to analyze the global incidence and mortality rates of CL in 2020 and its relationship with the Human Development Index (HDI). In this ecologic study, we analyzed the 2020 cancer incidence and mortality data for children aged 0-14 years from the GLOBOCAN Project. We calculated the Age-Standardized Incidence Rate (ASIR) and Age-Standardized Mortality Rate (ASMR) of CL per 100,000 individuals. Pearson's correlation coefficient was used to examine the association between childhood leukemia ASIR, ASMR, and the HDI, with a statistical significance threshold of P

Pearson's correlation coefficient was used to examine the association between childhood leukemia ASIR, ASMR, and the HDI, with a statistical significance threshold of P&lt;0.05. In 2020, there were a total of 67,008 new cases of CL worldwide, with males accounting for 57.85%. The global ASIR for CL was 3.4 per 100,000 (3.9 in males, 3 in females). Additionally, there were 25,080 CL-related deaths, with males comprising 58.86%. The overall ASMR for CL was 1.3 (1.4 in males, 1.1 in females). We found a significant positive correlation (r = 0.405, P≤0.001) between the global ASIR and ASMR for CL. There was a strong positive correlation (r = 0.770, P = 0.001) between the HDI and childhood leukemia ASIR, but no significant association (r = 0.077, P = 0.337) was observed with ASMR. Our study reveals that CL remains a significant health burden worldwide. We identified a positive correlation between the ASIR of CL and the HDI, indicating a potential role of socioeconomic factors in CL incidence.</description><identifier>ISSN: 1932-6203</identifier><identifier>EISSN: 1932-6203</identifier><identifier>DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0304354</identifier><identifier>PMID: 38954710</identifier><language>eng</language><publisher>United States: Public Library of Science</publisher><subject>Adolescent ; Age ; Analysis ; Biology and Life Sciences ; Bone marrow ; Cancer ; Cancer therapies ; Child ; Child, Preschool ; Childhood ; Children ; Correlation coefficient ; Correlation coefficients ; Estimates ; Fatalities ; Female ; Females ; Global Health - statistics &amp; numerical data ; Health aspects ; Health care access ; Human Development Index ; Humans ; Incidence ; Industrialized nations ; Infant ; Infant, Newborn ; Leukemia ; Leukemia - epidemiology ; Leukemia - mortality ; Leukemia in children ; Male ; Males ; Medical prognosis ; Medicine and Health Sciences ; Mortality ; Oncology, Experimental ; People and Places ; Population ; Socioeconomic factors ; Socioeconomics</subject><ispartof>PloS one, 2024-07, Vol.19 (7), p.e0304354</ispartof><rights>Copyright: © 2024 Mohammadian-Hafshejani et al.
