Abstract

In an attempt to decrease social disparities in cancer survival, it is important to consider the mechanisms by which socioeconomic position influences cancer prognosis. We aimed to investigate whether any associations between socioeconomic factors and survival after cervical cancer could be explained by socioeconomic differences in cancer stage, comorbidity, lifestyle factors or treatment.
