前列腺癌的一个显着的流行病学特征是非洲裔美国人的死亡率和发病率升高,他们在世界上报告的发病率最高(1)。这种种族差异的原因尚不清楚,尽管环境,饮食和激素因素正在研究中。进一步的线索可能来自美国境内的地理模式。
A remarkable epidemiologic feature of prostate cancer is its elevated mortality and incidence rates among African-Americans, who have the highest rates reported in the world (1). The reasons for this racial difference are unclear, although environmental, dietary, and hormonal factors are under study. Further clues may come from the geographic pattern within the United States.
