==== Cancer Outcomes ==== Another outcome associated with redlining is varying cancer outcomes. For example, a study published in the ''Journal of the American Medical Association'' found non-redlined areas to have more favorable breast cancer outcomes among non-Latina white women.<ref>{{Cite journal |last1=Plascak |first1=Jesse J. |last2=Beyer |first2=Kirsten |last3=Xu |first3=Xinyi |last4=Stroup |first4=Antoinette M. |last5=Jacob |first5=Gabrielle |last6=Llanos |first6=Adana A. M. |date=2022-07-08 |title=Association Between Residence in Historically Redlined Districts Indicative of Structural Racism and Racial and Ethnic Disparities in Breast Cancer Outcomes |url=https://doi.org/10.1001/jamanetworkopen.2022.20908 |journal=JAMA Network Open |volume=5 |issue=7 |pages=e2220908 |doi=10.1001/jamanetworkopen.2022.20908 |pmid=35802373 |pmc=9270695 |issn=2574-3805}}</ref> A 2023 study published in the J''ournal of the American College of Surgeons'' found that, beyond cancer outcomes, redlining also contributes to lower cancer screening rates.<ref>{{Cite journal |last1=Moazzam |first1=Zorays |last2=Woldesenbet |first2=Selamawit |last3=Endo |first3=Yutaka |last4=Alaimo |first4=Laura |last5=Lima |first5=Henrique A. |last6=Cloyd |first6=Jordan |last7=Dillhoff |first7=Mary |last8=Ejaz |first8=Aslam |last9=Pawlik |first9=Timothy M. |date=2023-09-01 |title=Association of Historical Redlining and Present-Day Social Vulnerability with Cancer Screening |url=https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37318132/ |journal=Journal of the American College of Surgeons |volume=237 |issue=3 |pages=454β464 |doi=10.1097/XCS.0000000000000779 |issn=1879-1190 |pmid=37318132}}</ref> Specifically, the study found that, in redlined versus non-redlined neighborhoods, there were 24% lower odds of being screened for breast cancer, 64% lower odds for colorectal cancer, and 79% lower odds in cervical cancer. It is important that strategies to combat screening disparities be structurally competent and location-specific, as Amanda Harper, senior staff writer at Ohio State's Comprehensive Cancer Center β James Cancer Hospital and Solove Research Institute writes.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2023-09-19 |title=Historic discrimination affects cancer screening rates |url=https://health.osu.edu/health/cancer/redlining-and-lower-cancer-screenings |access-date=2024-04-15 |website=health.osu.edu |language=en}}</ref> For example, if transportation is a barrier, travel vouchers or mobile clinics should be employed. The health inequalities that arise from redlining manifest in many forms, and cancer outcomes and screening are two ways redlined communities present differences when compared to non-redlined communities.
