Article Synopsis
- The study examines breast cancer (BC) rates and outcomes among different racial groups in Brazil from 2010 to 2015, focusing on White and Black women.
- Findings showed that White women had a higher incidence of BC (101.3 per 100,000) compared to Black women (59.7 per 100,000), but Black women were more likely to have advanced-stage diagnoses and lived in poorer conditions.
- The research highlights significant increases in BC mortality rates, especially for Black women, emphasizing the need for targeted healthcare policies to improve early detection and treatment access for disadvantaged populations.
