摘要
Australia has experienced an astonishing increase in liver cancer over the past few decades and the epidemiologicalreasons behind this are puzzling. The existing recognized risk factors for liver cancer, viral hepatitis, and alcohol con-sumption, are inconsistent with the trend in liver cancer. Behind the effects of migration and metabolic disease lies apotential contribution of climate change to an increase in liver cancer. This study explored the climate-associated dis-tribution of high-risk areas for liver cancer by comparing liver cancer to lung cancer andfinds that the incidence ofliver cancer is more pronounced in hot and humid areas. This study showed the risk of liver cancer was higher inthe equatorial region and tropical regions. These results will extend the study on the health consequences of climatechange and provide more ideas and directions for future researchers.
