Decreasing Black-White Disparities in Colorectal Cancer Incidence and Stage at Presentation in the United States

摘要

Background: There are long-standing black-white disparities in colorectal cancer incidence and outcomes in the United States. Incidence and stage at diagnosis reflect the impact of national efforts directed at colorectal cancer prevention and control. We aimed to evaluate trends in black-white disparities in both indicators over four decades to inform the future direction of prevention and control efforts.
