The effects of age, period, and cohort on the risk of colorectal cancer burden globally. Legend: bayesian age-period-cohort (BAPC) analysis illustrating the relative risk of colorectal cancer (CRC) burden associated with age, period, and birth cohort effects. (A) Age effect on CRC incidence risk. (B) Age effect on CRC mortality risk. (C) Period effect on CRC incidence risk. (D) Period effect on CRC mortality risk. (E) Birth cohort effect on CRC incidence risk. (F) Birth cohort effect on CRC mortality risk. All estimates are presented on a relative risk scale, with 1.0 as the reference value
