Abstract:ImportanceAfrican American men experience greater prostate cancer incidence and mortality than White men. Growing literature supports associations of neighborhood disadvantage, which disproportionately affects African American men, with aggressive prostate cancer; chronic stress and downstream biological impacts (eg, increased inflammation) may contribute to these associations.ObjectiveTo examine whether several neighborhood disadvantage metrics are associated with prostate tumor RNA expression of stress-relat… Show more
