Studies show a minor reduction in age standardized incidence rate (ASIR per 100,000) from 14.5 to 13.1 between 2017 and 2018, and a minor increase in the age standardized mortality rate (ASMR per 100,000) from 6.1 to 6.9 within the same period (Fitzmaurice et al., 2019;Arbyn et al., 2020).

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
