Although both suffering from cancer, turned out to women's chances for survival against the disease is greater than the men. A study says men are at higher risk to die from cancer.
The report, published in the journal Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers & Prevention that analyzed the survival rate for 5 years from 36 types of cancer.
Differences in life expectancy more apparent than in cases where oral cancer than 100,000 people died than 5:51 man 1 woman, followed by 5.37 larynx cancer, hypopharynx cancer and esophageal cancer 4.08 4.47 compared to 1 woman.

The same trend is also seen in cancers that have the highest mortality tingka, namely lung cancer that kill men than a woman's 2.31 and 1.42 of colorectal cancer that kills men than a woman.
While the numbers of pancreatic cancer was 1.37 of a woman, leukemia and liver cancer 2.23 1.75.
The researchers say a bit difficult to explain why there gender differences in life expectancy, but the alleged behavior of different tumors as well as differences in treatment are obtained. For example, research that says men are generally diagnosed when the cancer is in advanced stage cancer compared with women.
