New federal data analyzed by the Daily Mail suggests that where American men live may play a major role in whether they survive prostate cancer, with sharp regional differences emerging in diagnosis rates, access to screening and mortality.
The analysis found that parts of the South, including Mississippi, Louisiana and Georgia, record some of the country's highest prostate cancer death rates. Mississippi reports nearly 25 prostate cancer deaths per 100,000 men, while Louisiana and Georgia also rank among the highest for diagnoses and mortality.
