Brain cancer survival in Canada 1996-2008: effects of sociodemographic characteristics.

Conclusions: Our analysis did not yield evidence of strong effects of rural compared with urban residence or ses strata on survival in brain cancer. However, some variation in survival for patients with specific histologies warrants further research into the mechanisms by which rural or urban residence and income stratum influences survival.
