An earlier report that examined cancer incidence in major
ethnic groups in England found that primary liver cancer incidence
was around twice as high in Black men than White men [14]. In the
present study, Black Caribbean and Black African men had
incidence rate ratios of 1.2 and 3.3, respectively, highlighting
the differences between these two ethnic groups. Results were
more similar for Black women compared with White women, with
rate ratios of 1.3 in Black Caribbean women and 1.7 in Black African
women in the present study, and 1.7 for all Black women found
previously [14]. Previously much higher incidence rates have been
shown in Chinese groups in the US [7]. In California, incidence rates
were three times higher in Chinese men and women than in the
corresponding White groups [13], while the present study found
incidence rates were around four times higher in Chinese men and
twice as high in Chinese women
