Esophageal cancer mortality trends in the United States: a comprehensive longitudinal study (1999–2023) using CDC WONDER data
Despite an overall decline in the mortality rate of esophageal cancer, significant disparities persist across geographic, urban-rural, and age subgroups. These findings highlight the need for targeted public health interventions to address ongoing inequalities, particularly among NH white individuals, those living in non-metropolitan areas, and older adult.
