Why Host Health in My Hands?
我们需要注意癌症差异。与其他女性相比,每年被诊断出宫颈癌的两倍。乳腺癌是拉丁裔中最常见的癌症。虽然乳腺癌筛查可以将死亡率降低20%,并且宫颈筛查可以预防癌症,但由于19岁的大流行,妇女延迟了常规筛查。
我手中的健康/Salud en Mis Manos(Semm)is a Cancer Prevention and Research Institute of Texas (CPRIT) funded breast and cervical cancer prevention program at The University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston.
