A recent global study published in Nature Medicine projects that approximately 15.6 million people born between 2008 and 2017 will develop gastric cancer during their lifetime. The bacterium Helicobacter pylori is identified as a primary cause, potentially responsible for nearly 12 million cases worldwide. This bacterium is asymptomatic in most cases but is linked to about 75% of future stomach cancer cases, according to the International Agency for Research on Cancer. Countries with the highest projected numbers include China and India, with India ranking second. Researchers emphasize that screening and treatment programs targeting Helicobacter pylori could reduce the incidence of gastric cancer by up to 75%, highlighting the preventable nature of most cases if timely interventions are implemented.
