Prostate Cancer and Race

Ed Bartlett from Men's Health America submitted this link to a news article about prostate cancer prevalence and treatment rates. It set out to investigate to what extent socioeconomic factors affect the higher death rates of prostate cancer in men of different races. The study raised some new questions about the cancer in black men, as socioeconomic factors did not explain the increased prevalence (but did explain the difference for Hispanic men).
