Total and percent free prostate-specific antigen levels among U.S. men, 2001-2002.

TL;DR: In the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey of 2001-2002, this paper found that about 6.1% (95% confidence interval, 4.7-7.7%), corresponding to an estimated 3.4 million men nationwide, ages 40 years and older, had a total prostate-specific antigen (PSA) of > 4.0 ng/mL and a percent free PSA of < 25%.
Journal ArticleDOI

Trends in liver cancer mortality in the United States: dual burden among foreign- and US-born persons.

TL;DR: Foreign‐born individuals may be more likely to die of liver cancer than individuals in the general US‐born population because of higher rates of hepatitis B infection, a low socioeconomic position, and language barriers that limit the receipt of early cancer detection and effective treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cancer mortality rates among US and foreign-born individuals: United States 2005-2014.

TL;DR: From 1970 to 2010 the foreign-born population in the United States has rapidly increased from 9.6 to 40.0 million individuals, and many of these deaths could be avoided through improved access to prevention, screening, and treatment services for immigrant populations in the US or in their country of origin.
