Socio-economic and ethnic disparities in childhood cancer survival, Yorkshire, UK

K. J. Cromie, N. F. Hughes, et al.

This groundbreaking study reveals the stark socio-economic and ethnic disparities in childhood cancer survival rates across Yorkshire, examining 20 years of data. Researchers found that deprivation significantly impacts survival odds, especially for leukemia and lymphoma, with South Asian children facing notable challenges. Conducted by K. J. Cromie and colleagues, this work highlights the urgent need for targeted interventions to ensure equitable healthcare outcomes for all children.
