Catto - Figure 4
Survival rates are static
FIG. 4: The background of bladder cancer is that while the disease is becoming less common in countries where the incidence of smoking is falling and more common in countries where the incidence of smoking is rising, in general, survival rates are not improving. Figure 4 reports data from the United Kingdom, showing that survival rates are relatively static,[3] and data from the United States are similar.[4]
