摘要

Objective

To determine how lung cancer mortality differ by region in Brazil and whether these differences correlate with patient sex, income inequality and number of physicians involved in lung cancer treatment.

Results

Female sex, year of death and higher number of broncoesophalogists were all associated with lower mortality (p < 0.05), whereas a higher number of family medicine doctors, thoracic surgeons, pneumologists and a higher average income were associated with higher mortality rates (p < 0.05).
