African-Americans Began A Thicket To Die From Breast Cancer

African-Americans Began A Thicket To Die From Breast Cancer.
Black bosom cancer patients are more expected to die than white patients, regardless of the species of cancer, according to a new study in 2013. This suggests that the lower survival rate mid black patients is not solely because they are more often diagnosed with less treatable types of breast cancer, the researchers said. For more than six years, the researchers followed nearly 1700 soul cancer patients who had been treated for luminal A, luminal B, basal-like or HER2-enriched bust cancer subtypes.

During that period, about 500 of the patients had died, nearly 300 of them from heart cancer. Black patients were nearly twice as likely as ivory patients to have died from breast cancer. The researchers also found that black patients were less likely than light-skinned patients to be diagnosed with either the luminal A or luminal B breast cancer subtypes.
