Race, prostate cancer survival, and membership in a large health maintenance organization.
J Natl Cancer Inst. 1998; (13): 986-90
Population-based cancer registry data have shown that black men with prostate cancer have poorer stage-specific survival than white men, while studies in equal-access health care systems have not found racial differences in stage-specific survival. This study was designed to test the hypothesis that black men and white men with prostate cancer have equal stage-specific survival in equal-access health care systems.
