Año: 2018

Revista: International Journal for Equity in Health

Resumen: cervical cancer is one of the most prevalent cancers, but it may be prevented by early detection.
Social inequalities in the use of cytology testing have been identified in the literature. However, the degree of
income-related inequality has not been quantified and determinants of inequality changes during the economic
crisis remain unknown.
