Fig. 3From: Global burden of breast cancer and attributable risk factors in 195 countries and territories, from 1990 to 2017: results from the Global Burden of Disease Study 2017The correlation of EAPC and breast cancer ASR in 1990 (a) and the correlation of breast cancer ASR in 2017 and SDI (b). a The size of circle is increased with breast cancer cases and one circle represents a specific country. The ρ indices and P value were derived from Pearson correlation analysis. b The blue line represents the average expected relationship between SDIs and ASRs for breast cancer based on values from all countries from 1990 to 2017. ASR, age-standardized rate; EAPC, estimated annual percentage change; SDI, social-demographic indexBack to article page
