About this Dataset

Cancers Attributable To Infections

The dataset includes data on cancers linked to ten infectious pathogens classified as carcinogenic by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), such as Helicobacter pylori, hepatitis B and C viruses, and human papillomavirus (HPV). It includes population attributable fractions (PAFs), which estimate the proportion of cancer cases associated with each infection, and age-standardized rates (ASRs), which adjust for age distribution differences to allow for comparisons across populations.
