Global cancer death rates are more than 50% higher in men than women, according to figures published today by Cancer Research UK. The numbers show that 4.6m men die from the disease every year – equivalent to 126 men in every 100,000, compared to around 3.5m women – 82 women per 100,000. The statistics compiled by the International Agency for Research on Cancer, have been announced alongside a new interactive map by Cancer Research UK, which compares cancer statistics from around the world. The map shows the variation in incidence, mortality and the reliability of the data in each country and region.
