Global map of age-standardised DALY rates for both sexes combined in 2019, categorised by age-standardised DALY rate quintiles, excluding non-melanoma skin cancers, for malignant adolescent and young adult cancers (A), malignant childhood cancers (B), and malignant adult cancers (C)

Quintiles are based on age-standardised DALY rates per 100 000 person-years. For adolescent and young adult cancers (age 15–39 years), quintile 1 (0–20%) corresponds to less than 597 DALYs per 100 000 person-years, quintile 2 (21–40%) corresponds to 597 to less than 729 DALYs per 100 000 person-years, quintile 3 (41–60%) corresponds to 729 to less than 833 DALYs per 100 000 person-years, quintile 4 (61–80%) corresponds to 833 to less than 1010 DALYs per 100 000 person-years, and quintile 5 (81–100%) corresponds to 1010 or more DALYs per 100 000 person-years. For childhood cancers (age 0–14 years), quintile 1 (0–20%) corresponds to less than 250 DALYs per 100 000 person-years, quintile 2 (21–40%) corresponds to 250 to less than 311 DALYs per 100 000 person-years, quintile 3 (41–60%) corresponds to 311 to less than 396 DALYs per 100 000 person-years, quintile 4 (61–80%) corresponds to 396 to less than 495 DALYs per 100 000 person-years, and quintile 5 (81–100%) corresponds to 495 or more DALYs per 100 000 person-years. For adult cancers (age ≥40 years), quintile 1 (0–20%) corresponds to less than 6680 DALYs per 100 000 person-years, quintile 2 (21–40%) corresponds to 6680 to less than 7390 DALYs per 100 000 person-years, quintile 3 (41–60%) corresponds to 7390 to less than 8580 DALYs per 100 000 person-years, quintile 4 (61–80%) corresponds to 8580 to less than 9890 DALYs per 100 000 person-years, and quintile 5 (81–100%) corresponds to 9890 or more DALYs per 100 000 person-years. There are several geographical locations (shown in white) where estimates are not available (eg, Western Sahara and French Guiana) as they were not modelled locations in GBD 2019. DALY=disability-adjusted life-year. GBD=Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, and Risk Factors Study.
