Article Synopsis
- A study compared endometrial cancer (EC) survival rates among Black women in the US and Caribbean to determine if the survival disadvantage is specific to the US.
- Analysis of data from over 28,000 EC cases showed that both US Black women and Caribbean Black women faced a higher risk of death compared to non-Hispanic White women in the US.
- For non-endometrioid EC, Caribbean Black women had a significantly higher risk of death (40% more) than their US counterparts, indicating that lower survival rates among Black women with EC are not only a US issue but also a concern for African descent populations abroad.
Background: Endometrial cancer (EC) is the fourth most common cancer among Black women in the United States, a population disproportionately affected by aggressive nonendometrioid subtypes (e.g., serous, carcinosarcoma).

- The study aimed to analyze scientific publications from the French West Indies (FWI) and the Dominican Republic (DR) from 1990-2019, focusing on trends, international collaborations, and potential future partnerships.
- A total of 3,599 publications were examined, with the FWI contributing 2,552 articles and the DR 1,047; the majority of these were published in high-quality journals.
- Key collaborative partners included mainland France for the FWI and the US for the DR, with a notable focus on infectious diseases like arboviruses and HIV, suggesting a solid foundation for future research collaborations in this area.*
Background: Prostate cancer incidence is highest for Black men of the African diaspora in the United States and Caribbean. Recent changes in recommendations for prostate cancer screening have been shown to decrease overall prostate cancer incidence and increase the likelihood of late stage disease. However, it is unclear how trends in prostate cancer characteristics among high risk Black men differ by geographic region during the changes in screening recommendations.

It is imperative that we acquire a solid understanding of the natural history of this virus in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) development. Our objective was to investigate the role of sexual behaviour in the occurrence of HNSCC in the French West Indies.
