Racial disparities in endometrial cancer: Where are we after 26  years?

CONCLUSION: Racial disparities in disease incidence and mortality in endometrial cancer rates between WAW and AAW have widened during a 26-year period of robust research, suggesting that current research alone is not enough to eliminate this disparity. Based on this rapid systematic review we have identified and analyzed the impact of causation variables on this disparity. Additionally, we have made strong and pertinent recommendations for the benefit of mitigating this escalating racial disparity.PMID:38382150 | DOI:10.1016/j.ygyno.2024.01.054
