年龄是癌症最大的危险因素。随着世界人口的平均寿命不断增加,癌症的发生率预计将大幅上升。美国国立卫生研究院(NIH)和世界卫生组织(WHO)在2011年发布的一份关于世界卫生与全球人口老龄化的报告中提到,在2050年之前,年龄大于或等于65岁的人口将达到15亿;在2030年之前,每年新增的癌症病例预计将到达2 700万。毫无疑问,要减轻与全球人口老龄化相关疾病带来的影响,将需要发展一种全新的抗癌疗法来避免经济和人道主义灾难。
Age is the biggest risk factor for cancer. As the average life expectancy of the world’s population continues to increase, the incidence of cancer is projected to increase significantly. The 2011 report of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the World Health Organization (WHO) on the aging of the world’s health and the global population mentions that by the year 2050, people over the age of 65 will Reaching 1.5 billion; by 2030, the annual increase of cancer cases is expected to reach 27 million. Undoubtedly, mitigating the effects of the global population aging-related diseases will require the development of an entirely new anti-cancer therapy to avert economic and humanitarian catastrophe.
