During the years 1969-80, primary liver cancer mortality rates for Mexican American males were 2.2 times higher than for other Whites; Mexican American females had rates 2.8 times higher than other White females. Age-specific mortality rates showed even higher risks for older Mexican Americans exceeding both other White and Black rates three to four-fold. Incidence data for El Paso County (Texas) confirmed the increased risk for Mexican American males (risk ratio = 2.3) and females (risk ratio = 13.7). Cirrhosis mortality was also higher in Texas Mexican Americans but risk ratios were not as large as seen for primary liver cancer.
在1969年至1980年期间,墨西哥裔美国男性的原发性肝癌死亡率比其他白人高2.2倍;墨西哥裔美国女性的死亡率比其他白人女性高2.8倍。按年龄划分的死亡率显示,年长的墨西哥裔美国人面临的风险更高,比其他白人和黑人的死亡率高出三到四倍。得克萨斯州埃尔帕索县的发病率数据证实了墨西哥裔美国男性(风险比 = 2.3)和女性(风险比 = 13.7)面临的风险增加。得克萨斯州的墨西哥裔美国人肝硬化死亡率也较高,但风险比没有原发性肝癌那么大。
