Analysis of race and gender disparities in incidence-based mortality in patients diagnosed with thyroid cancer from 2000 to 2016

International Journal of General Medicine Dec 18, 2020

Patel S, Pappoppula L, Guddati AK, et al. - Amongst both genders in four racial groups, this study was undertaken to investigate the rates of incidence-based mortality from the years 2000 to 2016 . Researchers used Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results databases to perform a nationwide analysis for the years 2000 to 2016, which included all stages and ages. They applied a two-sample t-test to ascertain statistically significant variations between various subgroups. For anaplastic thyroid cancer, incidence-based mortality is higher in women of all races, while there is no variation in mortality between men and women for well-differentiated thyroid cancer. The data suggested that this differs from the incidence ratios noted in these malignancies. This data implies that additional resources may be devoted to reducing the disparity of mortality in this gender, in the context of increasing incidence of thyroid cancer for the past few decades.
