Abstract
INTRODUCTION: Ovarian cancer is one of the three most common gynecological cancers, with the highest mortality rate among gynecological malignancies. Previous studies on the environmental and socioeconomic (ESE) factors that affect ovarian cancer incidence (OCI) have generally only considered the net effects of single variables, while the synergistic effects among multiple factors have yet to be explored.
