\

JAMA Network




About The Study: 

In this cross-sectional study based on data from 2022, cancer disparities were evident across Human Development Index, geographic regions, age, and sex, with further widening projected by 2050. These findings suggest that strengthening access to and quality of health care, including universal health insurance coverage, is key to providing evidence-based cancer prevention, diagnostics, and care.
