Abstract
In the USA endometrial cancer among women in their fifties has been declining since 1975 after having risen throughout the earlier part of the decade. Rates for older women have continued to rise steadily, suggesting that the early postmenopausal population may have determinants of endometrial cancer not shared by other age groups.This publication has 10 references indexed in Scilit:
