Breast cancer size at diagnosis in Hispanic women as a function of the percentage of Hispanics living in the census tract and also the mean income of residents of the census tract (1988–2002; n = 9,792)
| Adjusted for age | Adjusted for age, TpH, and tract income | |
|---|---|---|
| TpH | Tumor size (±SD), mm | Tumor size (±SD), mm |
| <20% | 23.5 (0.36)* | 24.4 (0.43) |
| 20% to <60% | 24.9 (0.34) | 25.1 (0.35) |
| ≥60% | 26.2 (0.38) | 25.2 (0.44) |
| Census tract income | ||
| Q1 (low) | 27.1 (0.43)* | 26.8 (0.50)* |
| Q2 | 25.0 (0.40) | 24.8 (0.42) |
| Q3 | 24.4 (0.40) | 24.4 (0.42) |
| Q4 (high) | 23.2 (0.38) | 23.5 (0.46) |
NOTE: Mean tumor size was determined by TpH or income categories (ANOVA).
P < 0.0001.
