mutation can vary by race. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the prevalence of =0.0007). BRCA1/2 mutations for non-familial Korean breast cancer patients were detected at a high rate, particularly, in patients with early onset of less than 35years of age, bilateral breast cancer, ...
Purpose:There are deficient data on prevalence of germline mutations in breast cancer susceptibility genes 1 and 2 ( Methods:This prospective, cross-sectional, noninterventional study in nine Indian centers included patients with newly diagnosed or relapsed epithelial ovarian, primary peritoneal, or fallo...
Results Among 3946 Black women (mean [SD] age at diagnosis, 56.5 [12.02] y) and 25 287 non-Hispanic White women (mean [SD] age at diagnosis, 62.7 [11.14] y) with breast cancer, there was no statistically significant difference by race in the combined prevalence of PVs in the 12 br...
Most women, 261 (66.0%) had finished elementary school, were married, 241 (61.0%) and by race, most, 180 (45.5%) were brown (Table 1). Table 1 Sociodemographic and behavioral characteristics of Quilombola women Full size table Table 1 shows the behavioral characteristics of the participants....
Psoriasis prevalence differed significantly by race/ethnicity (Table 2). NHANES oversamples minority and low-income populations. Overall, White individuals reported the highest prevalence of psoriasis at 3.6% (95% CI, 2.9%-4.2%). The lowest psoriasis prevalence was found in Black individuals, with...

These results were supported by the finding in a nontransplant cohort of a higher frequency of C282Y mutations in Caucasian (18.4%, P = 0.039) and African-American (8.5%, P = 0.005) women with breast than race-specific national frequency estimates. A high prevalence of C282Y alleles in ...
Gender, age, primary language, income, and co-diagnosis of hypertension were not correlated. Conclusions: In this population of similar socioeconomic status and access to healthcare, race was not an independent predictor of diabetic retinopathy. This suggests that racial differences described in ...
Prevalence of low desire in both surgically and naturally menopausal women was slightly elevated compared with premenopausal women. There was a suggestion that the prevalence ratios for both low desire and HSDD differed by race/ethnicity (results not shown); however, given the relatively small number...
