RESUMO
For patients with cervical cancer, despite the incidence and mortality rates have been declining in recent years, due to its huge population base, cervical cancer has always been a serious public health problem. Our research placed emphasis on the indices greatly associated with overall area-specific social economic status, making up for the defects of traditional research which only pay attention to the situation of some specific disease or patients' individual social status. A total of 39160 women identified cervical cancer were concluded in our study from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) 18 Program data between 1980 and 2014. With improving the area-specific social economic factors in recent years, the occurrence and prognosis of cervical cancer showed different variation patterns respectively. Some states like California and Georgia for their better economic status and more healthcare investment by local medical institution, population there showed a lower prevalence, incidence, more timely diagnosis, effective treatment, and better prognosis. According to our study, we aimed to give a scientific interpretation on how the area-specific social economic factors affect the disease situation at the macro level and help local medical institution make advisable decisions for controlling cervical cancer.
