Cervical Dysplasia
Scientific Questions Being Studied
We also aim to delineate patient characteristics of women who did not undergo guideline-concordant treatment for cervical dysplasia to better understand factors that hinder guideline-concordant care.
Project Purpose(s)
- Disease Focused Research (Cervical Dysplasia)
Scientific Approaches
We will also evaluate participants with a diagnosis of severe cervical dysplasia. We will collect participant characteristics as well as clinical and pathological factors. Our primary outcome is guideline-concordant care. This will be defined utilizing the American Society for Colposcopy and Cervical Pathology (ASCCP) guidelines published in 2010, as these were the recommendations in effect during data collection.
Anticipated Findings
This study will highlight mechanisms that can decrease the disparity in screening for cervical cancer.

Access in Endometrial Cancer Patients
Scientific Questions Being Studied
Mortality from endometrial cancer is rising in the United States. There is a disparity in the oncologic outcomes with black women having a twofold higher risk of death from endometrial cancer compared to white women. We sought to evaluate determinant factors and oncologic outcome in women diagnosed with endometrial cancer.
Project Purpose(s)
- Population Health
Scientific Approaches
We intend to use all person assigned female at birth with a diagnosis of endometrial cancer. We will perform a stratified analysis comparing the survey responses on the utilization and access to care survey by self-reported race. Differences between the two groups will be presented using descriptive statistics.
Anticipated Findings
Non-white women will identify a lack of insurance and/or co-pay as their primary barrier to seek specialist care for gynecologic problems.
