Abstract

Increases in colorectal cancer screening are linked to the declining incidence of the disease over the past 3 decades. These favorable trends, however, are not observed in marginalized racial and ethnic populations with disproportionately lower rates of screening, higher disease incidence, and increased mortality, despite advances in health technology and policy. This review describes the differences in screening uptake and test selection among racial and ethnic groups, discusses known obstacles and facilitators that impact screening, and highlights existing frameworks developed to achieve health equity in colorectal cancer screening.

减少结直肠癌癌症筛查中的差异和实现健康公平。

癌症筛查的增加与过去三十年来该疾病发病率的下降有关。然而，尽管卫生技术和政策取得了进步，但在筛查率低得不成比例、疾病发病率高得不成比例、死亡率增加的边缘化种族和族裔人群中，并没有观察到这些有利趋势。这篇综述描述了种族和民族群体在筛查接受和检测选择方面的差异，讨论了影响筛查的已知障碍和促进因素，并强调了为实现癌症筛查的健康公平而制定的现有框架。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
