A: The average individual number of patients (per group) treated annually for gastric cancer is highest in AAs. There were significantly more AAFs than WFs (^bP < 0.01), and AAMs had more annual gastric cancer diagnoses than WMs (^aP < 0.05). The number of WMs was not significantly different from that of WFs; and the number of AAMs was not significantly different from that of AAFs; B: National trends in gastric cancer - Influence of ethnicity and gender. AAMs had more annual gastric cancer diagnoses than AAFs (^dP < 0.001) and WMs (^dP < 0.001). AAFs had more annual gastric cancer diagnoses than WFs (^dP < 0.001). WMs had more annual gastric cancer diagnoses than WFs (^dP < 0.001). WMs: Non-Hispanic white males; WFs: Non-Hispanic white females; AAMs: African American males; AAFs: African American females; NS: Not significant.
