Core Tip Gastric cancer (GC) remains a leading cause of morbidity and mortality. Nationally, AAs reportedly develop GC at twice the rate of Caucasians. Male gender is a significant risk factor for GC development in the United States with a nearly 2:1 male to female dominance. However, at Louisiana State University Health Sciences Center-Shreveport, the annual rates of GC diagnosis among women in either ethnic grouping were statistically indistinguishable from that of their male counterparts. This result indicates that regional geography and socioeconomic factors may contribute to the ethnicity and gender differences observed in patients with GC. Therefore, additional GC surveillance for women, particularly African American females, may improve patient outcomes.
