📺 Nigeria TV Info – A recent study has warned that the global number of liver cancer cases could nearly double by 2050, reaching 1.52 million new cases annually, up from 870,000, if current health trends remain unchecked. The study, based on data from the Global Cancer Observatory and published in the Lancet medical journal, highlighted that liver cancer—currently the sixth most common cancer worldwide—will surge unless urgent action is taken to tackle preventable risk factors. These include rising obesity rates, increasing alcohol consumption, and the spread of hepatitis infections.
