This review uncovers systemic reforms addressing disparities in breast cancer mortality among Black women, highlighting multilevel drivers and biases in healthcare.
Despite advances in detection and treatment, Black women in the US continue to experience more aggressive breast cancer subtypes and higher mortality. Framed through a Society-to-Cells lens, this review presents a comprehensive framework for understanding how multilevel drivers-from structural forces to cellular responses-interact to perpetuate disparities. Addressing these inequities requires systemic reforms targeting root causes, including policies to redress historical neighborhood disinvestment and eliminate bias within healthcare systems.
