BACKGROUND
Many American Indian and Alaska Native women have lower incidence rates of breast carcinoma than other racial/ethnic groups in the United States. The rates in most areas, however, have increased in recent years. The author reviews the migration patterns and effects that might contribute to this change.
METHODS
A review of the literature on migration and breast carcinoma incidence was conducted.
RESULTS
Migration significantly impacts on breast carcinoma incidence in all groups of women studied.
CONCLUSIONS
Research must be designed that will explore the components of host, life-styles, and environment on breast carcinoma rates in American Indian and Alaska Native women to elucidate mechanisms of breast carcinoma etiology.
背景
许多美国印第安人和阿拉斯加原住民女性的乳腺癌发病率低于美国其他种族/族裔群体。然而，近年来大多数地区的发病率有所上升。作者回顾了可能导致这种变化的移民模式及其影响。
方法
对有关移民与乳腺癌发病率的文献进行了综述。
结果
移民对所有研究的女性群体的乳腺癌发病率均有显著影响。
结论
必须开展相关研究，探索宿主、生活方式和环境等因素对美国印第安人和阿拉斯加原住民女性乳腺癌发病率的影响，以阐明乳腺癌的病因机制。
