Pitfalls of practicing cancer epidemiology in resource-limited settings: the case of survival and loss to follow-up after a diagnosis of Kaposi’s sarcoma in five countries across sub-Saharan Africa. BMC Cancer, 16, 65. http://doi.org/10.1186/s12885-016-2080-01471-2407https://hdl.handle.net/1805/9113Survival after diagnosis is a fundamental concern in cancer epidemiology. In resource-rich settings, ambient clinical databases, municipal data and cancer registries make survival estimation in real-world populations relatively straightforward. In resource-poor settings, given the deficiencies in a variety of health-related data systems, it is less clear how well we can determine cancer survival from ambient data.en-USCC-BYSurvivalMortalityKaposi’s sarcomaHIV/AIDSCancerResource-limited settingsAfricaArticle
