Mashup Score: 2The growing global burden of thyroid cancer overdiagnosis - 9 hour(s) ago
A study published in The Lancet Diabetes & Endocrinology by Mengmeng Li and colleagues1 comprehensively examined the latest available data from the International Agency for Research on Cancer Global Cancer Observatory database to quantify the global burden of thyroid cancer overdiagnosis, using methods previously developed by their research team.2 Consistent with previously observed trends, the authors found that countries with the most rapid increases in thyroid cancer incidence over time were characterised by increasingly pronounced inverted U-shaped age-at-diagnosis curves (a distortion from historical patterns) and stable thyroid cancer mortality rates, which are indicative of a major contribution of overdiagnosis.

Mashup Score: 9
Although the incidence of thyroid cancer has reached a plateau or decrease in some high-income countries, the magnitude of overdiagnosis is still very large and the expansion of overdiagnosis of thyroid cancer to the transitioning countries has been rapid, which makes it a global public health challenge that needs to be addressed.
