Survivors of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) face excess mortality from multiple causes.We used the population-based Surveillance, Epidemiology, End Results (SEER) cancer registry data to evaluate causes death in patients with nonmetastatic HNSCC diagnosed between 1992 2005 who survived at least 3 years diagnosis (long-term survivors). We competing-risks proportional hazards regression estimate probabilities causes: HNSCC, second primary malignancy (SPM) excluding...
Social determinants of health (SDOH) have been previously associated with incident stroke. Although SDOH often cluster within individuals, few studies examined associations between stroke and multiple the same individual. The objective was to determine individual cumulative effects on stroke.This study included 27 813 participants from REGARDS (Reasons for Geographic Racial Differences in Stroke) Study, a national, representative, prospective cohort black white adults aged ≥45 years. primary...

SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) is a systemic infection. Patients with cancer are immunocompromised and may be vulnerable to COVID-related morbidity mortality. The objectives of this study were determine if patients have worse outcomes compared without identify demographic clinical predictors mortality among cancer.

Purpose Racial variation in the financial impact of cancer may contribute to observed differences use guideline-recommended treatments. We describe racial with regard breast a large population-based prospective cohort study. Methods The Carolina Breast Cancer Study oversampled black women and younger than age 50 years incident North from 2008 2013. Participants provided medical records data regarding demographics, socioeconomic status, at 5 25 months postdiagnosis. report unadjusted adjusted...
Social determinants of health (SDH) are individually associated with incident coronary heart disease (CHD) events. Indices reflecting social deprivation have been developed for population management, but difficult to operationalize during clinical care. We examined whether a simple count SDH is fatal CHD and nonfatal myocardial infarction (MI).We used data from the prospective longitudinal REGARDS cohort study (Reasons Geographic Racial Differences in Stroke), national population-based...
Background Social determinants of health (SDOHs) cluster together and can have deleterious impacts on outcomes. Individually, SDOHs increase the risk cancer mortality, but their cumulative burden is not well understood. The authors sought to determine combined effect SDOH mortality. Methods Using Reasons for Geographic Racial Differences in Stroke (REGARDS) cohort, studied 29,766 participants aged 45+ years followed them 10+ years. Eight potential were considered, retained that associated...
For high-price drugs, Medicare Part D beneficiaries who do not receive a low-income subsidy must pay percentage of the drug’s price for each medication fill. Without that subsidy, which lowers out-of-pocket spending, typically hundreds or thousands dollars single We estimated proportion in fee-for-service Medicare, with and without initiate treatment (that is, fill new prescription) drugs newly prescribed four conditions. Examining 17,076 prescriptions issued between 2012 2018 from eleven...
Men are diagnosed with bladder cancer at 3 times the rate of women. However, women present advanced disease and have poorer survival, suggesting delays in diagnosis. Hematuria is presenting symptom most cases. We assessed gender differences hematuria evaluation older adults cancer.
Differential use of endocrine therapy (ET) by race may contribute to breast cancer outcome disparities, but racial differences in ET behaviors are poorly understood.Women aged 20-74 years with a first primary, stage I-III, hormone receptor-positive (HR+) were included. At 2 postdiagnosis, we assessed nonadherence, defined as not taking every day or missing more than two pills the past 14 days, discontinuation, and composite measure underuse, either discontinuing completely. Using logistic...
With the significant downward size and stage migration of localized kidney cancers, management options for small cancers have expanded evolved.To describe trends outcomes in first decade new millennium.Surveillance, Epidemiology, End Results (SEER) cancer registry data linked to Medicare claims were used identify patients 66 years or older with a pathologically confirmed (<4 cm) diagnosed between January 1, 2001, December 31, 2009; analysis was performed February 2014, 2014.

Adverse event (AE) reporting in oncology trials is required, but current practice does not directly integrate the child's voice. The Pediatric Patient-Reported Outcomes version of Common Terminology Criteria for Events (PRO-CTCAE) being developed to assess symptomatic AEs via child/adolescent self-report or proxy-report. This qualitative study evaluates child's/adolescent's understanding and ability provide valid responses PRO-CTCAE inform questionnaire refinements confirm content...
We aimed to address deficiencies in structured electronic health record (EHR) data for race and ethnicity by identifying black Hispanic patients from unstructured clinical notes assessing differences between with or without race/ethnicity data.Using EHR 16 665 encounters at a primary care practice, we developed rule-based natural language processing (NLP) algorithms classify as black/Hispanic. evaluated performance of the method against an annotated gold standard, compared NLP-derived data,...
Tiffany Bogich and colleagues find that breakdown or absence of public health infrastructure is most often the driver in pandemic outbreaks, whose prevention requires mainstream development funding rather than emergency funding.
Background: Socially determined vulnerabilities (SDVs) to health disparities often cluster within the same individual. SDVs are separately associated with increased risk of heart failure (HF). The objective this study was determine cumulative effect on incident HF hospitalization. Methods and Results: Using REGARDS (Reasons for Geographic Racial Differences in Stroke) cohort study, we studied 25 790 participants without known followed them 10+ years. Our primary outcome an hospitalization...
