Synopsis of Cancer Inconsistencies in African Americans

Prabir Mandal* and Gerianee Ward

In the United States, one out of every three persons is affected by cancer. For most cancers, African Americans in the United States have the highest death rates and the shortest survival rates. Breast cancer, prostate cancer, lung cancer, colon cancer, myeloma, cervical cancer, and pancreatic cancer are examples of these cancers. In the African American population, there are a variety of racial inequities that play a role in incidence and death rates. These inequalities are both social and economic in nature. Individuals' socioeconomic situation frequently determines whether they receive the best possible healthcare. There is also a dearth of knowledge on many malignancies, including screening, prevention, and therapy. Within the area of research, there is also a paucity of African American participation. Cancer is the uncontrollable proliferation of cells that, if not managed, can lead to death. Smoking, excess body weight, physical inactivity, excessive alcohol intake, and poor nutrition are all known to play a role in the development of various cancers. African Americans or blacks, who make up 13% of the US population, have the highest death rate and the shortest survival rate for most cancers. In their lifetime, one out of every three black men and women will be diagnosed with cancer, and one out of every five will die from it. Prostate cancer was expected to be the leading cancer among African American men in 2019 and breast cancer among the females batch.
