Detailed explanation-1: -The incidence rates for cancer overall climb steadily as age increases, from fewer than 25 cases per 100, 000 people in age groups under age 20, to about 350 per 100, 000 people among those aged 45–49, to more than 1, 000 per 100, 000 people in age groups 60 years and older.
Detailed explanation-2: -Studies may have found that American men have about a 40 percent chance of developing cancer in their lifetimes, but that doesn’t mean your risk is 40 percent if you’re a man.
Detailed explanation-3: -In the US, 1 in 2 women and 1 in 3 men will develop cancer in their lifetime. Now, a similar rate has been reported in the UK, with a new study published in the British Journal of Cancer claiming 1 in 2 men and women will be diagnosed with the disease at some point in their lives.
