​Colorectal cancer (CRC) diagnoses and disease-specific survival vary between ethnic groups in the United States. However, few studies have assessed differences among Asian subgroups. Data from the 2009 California Health Interview Survey (CHIS) was used in this study to examine risk factors and screening patterns for CRC. The authors concluded that disparities exist among various Asian subgroups. Differences in cancer clinicopathologic features, patients' behavioral habits, lifestyle, and screening patterns may explain some differences in CRC survival observed among ethnic groups.
