Core Tip |
There is a higher incidence of esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) in non-Hispanic whites (nHw). Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is more common than EAC in non-Hispanic Blacks. Previous research reported higher incidence of ESCC compared to EAC in Hispanics (Hisp) as well. This study reveals that Hisp have joined nHw as US ethnic groups with EAC as the predominant esophageal cancer. Despite lower EAC incidence in all minority groups compared to nHw, these populations have lower survival compared to nHw. |
