Pacific and Māori women experience higher incidence of ovarian cancer and mortality, compared to non-Māori, non-Pacific women. Māori women seemed to have better prognostic factors (local stage and well-differentiated tumours) than non-Māori, non-Pacific women. More work is needed to improve current cancer prevention strategies, particularly in Pacific women.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
