To present the most recent national estimates of lung cancer burden globally in 185 countries and tobacco smoking prevalence (%) by sex.
Estimates of lung cancer incidence and mortality for 2018 were extracted from the Globocan database; observed incidence, from the last volume of Cancer Incidence in Five Continents, and tobacco prevalence, from the World Health Observatory/WHO database.
In 2018, over two million new lung cancer cases and 1.7 million deaths were estimated to occur worldwide, representing 14% of the new cancer cases and 20% of the cancer deaths. Incidence rates showed marked variation between countries. Stable or decreasing incidence rates were predominant among males, while among females increasing rates were common.
The continuing rise in lung cancer among women reinforces the need for strengthening implementation of the preventive actions committed to by governments in the WHO Framework Convention for Tobacco Control.
呈现全球 185 个国家的肺癌负担和烟草流行率（%）的最新国家估计值。
从 Globocan 数据库中提取 2018 年肺癌发病率和死亡率的估计值；从《五大洲癌症发病率》的最新一卷中提取观察到的发病率，从世界卫生组织/世卫组织数据库中提取烟草流行率。
2018 年，全球估计有超过 200 万例新肺癌病例和 170 万人死亡，占新发癌症病例的 14%和癌症死亡人数的 20%。发病率在国家之间存在显著差异。男性中以稳定或下降的发病率为主，而女性中发病率上升较为常见。
女性肺癌的持续上升，再次凸显了各国政府在世界卫生组织《烟草控制框架公约》下承诺采取的预防行动的必要性。
