Trends and socioeconomic inequalities in cancer survival in England and Wales up to 2001

Abstract: We examined national trends and socioeconomic inequalities in cancer survival in England and Wales during the 1990s, using population-based data on 2.2 million patients who were diagnosed with one of the 20 most common cancers between 1986 and 1999 and followed up to 2001. Patients were assigned to one of five deprivation categories (from 'affluent' to 'deprived') using characteristics of their electoral ward of residence at diagnosis. We estimated relative survival up to 5 years after diagnosis, adjusting sep… Show more

“…There was a 3-way interaction between low-fat label, weight concern and 14 socioeconomic status (SES) such that weight-concerned participants of higher SES who saw a 15 low-fat label consumed more than weight unconcerned participants of similar SES (t=-2. 7,16 p=.04). By contrast, weight-concerned participants of lower SES seeing either type of label, 17 consumed less than those seeing no label (t=-2.04, p=.04).…”

“…In general, survival for most adult cancers has been found to be significantly lower in more deprived areas [10]. A previously published review considered 63 studies that examined the role of socio-economic status on the incidence and survival from testicular cancer: overall more advantaged socio-economic status was associated with greater incidence and better survival [11].…”
