Internet-based peer support groups (ISGs) represent an innovative, scalable approach to addressing information and needs of cancer survivors. However, this innovation may not benefit survivors equally due population variance in digital literacy. This study examined how literacy influences level engagement psychological benefits from participating ISGs for breast (N = 183).Secondary analysis data a randomised trial that included behavioural measures engagement, subjective ratings distress...
Prostate cancer treatment is often accompanied by untoward side effects. Therefore, chemoprevention to reduce the risk and inhibit progression of prostate may be an effective approach reducing disease burden. We investigated safety efficacy Polyphenon E, a green tea extract, in transgenic adenocarcinoma mouse (TRAMP) mice. A total 119 male TRAMP C57BL/6J mice were treated orally with one 3 doses E (200, 500, 1,000 mg/kg/day) drinking water ad libitum replicating human achievable doses....
Abstract Background: Non-White cancer survivors often report poorer health compared with Non-Hispanic Whites. Whether those disparities are changing over time is unknown. We examined changes in health-related quality of life (HRQOL) by race/ethnicity from 1998 to 2012 among older adults and without cancer. Methods: Data Medicare Advantage beneficiaries were obtained the linkage between Health Outcomes Survey Surveillance, Epidemiology, End Results registry data (SEER-MHOS). HRQOL was...
During quit attempts, smokers must overcome smoking urges triggered by environmental cues and nicotine withdrawal symptoms. This study investigates the psychometric properties of 12-item Tobacco Urge Management Scale (TUMS), a new measure urge management behaviors. We analyzed secondary data (n = 327) from behavioral cessation intervention trial, Kids Safe Smokefree (KiSS). Confirmatory factor analysis TUMS indicated that one-factor model correlated two-factor had similar fit indices,...
The simultaneous occurrence of more than two types neoplasms is rare due to their significant phenotypic differences. Thyroid carcinoma regularly associated with genetic alterations and endocrine syndromes. However, the etiology forms papillary thyroid (PTC)/medullary (MTC) still not fully understood. We present case a 60-year-old male no history disease who presented dysphonia. Left vocal cord paralysis cervical tumor lesion were observed. A mixed medullary/papillary was diagnosed. Surgical...
<sec> <title>BACKGROUND</title> Broadband Internet plays an increasingly important role in supporting healthcare delivery and enhancing access to care health information. Although broadband has the potential alleviate inequities healthcare, digital divide negatively impacts cancer across continuum, from prevention information, early diagnostics treatment, survival outcomes. While subscription services been previously assessed, satisfaction with individual at-home internet connection is a...
Abstract Introduction: Prostate cancer is the most common and second leading cause of death in American men. Among patients who have a radical prostatectomy, ∼30% will disease recurrence. Currently, level prostate specific antigen (PSA), clinical stage (TNM) tumor grade (Gleason score) are used to estimate prognosis inform treatment modalities. Although these extremely useful, additional biomarkers needed better predict outcome. Angiogenesis has been associated with Gleason score, stage,...
4732 Background: Prostate cancer, a tumor dependent upon angiogenesis, frequently expresses vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), cyclo-oxygenase 2 (COX2) as well interleukin 6 (IL-6) receptors. Thalidomide (T) manifests its anti-angiogenic activity via both basic fibroblast (bFGF) and VEGF pathways can also down regulate the production of IL-6. has been shown to effect PSA responses in AIPC. COX2 inhibitors ablate bFGF mediated angiogenesis cause apoptosis prostate cancer cell lines....

Abstract Prostate cancer is the most common in men, comprising approximately one-third of all male-specific cancers. SLC5A8 a sodium-coupled transporter for short-chain fatty acids which are known to induce apoptosis by histone deacetylase inhibition. Previous studies suggest that may function as tumor suppressor gene whose silencing epigenetic changes contribute carcinogenesis. For this reason, we investigated role expression and single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) prostate risk...
Abstract Introduction: The lack of underrepresented individuals in the vast fields scientific cancer research underlines need for effective training programs to encourage aspiring trainees. There is a dire expand number scientists decrease mortality rates and incidences minority populations. Training initiatives demand creativity, flexibility, commitment sincere desire produce change system. Description: Project LINK (Leaders New Knowledge) solution this problem. Its primary goal create...
238 Background: Care experience ratings are recognized as measures of quality. We introduce a new resource, SEER-CAHPS, linking cancer registry data from the National Cancer Institute’s Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) program with Medicare claims Consumer Assessment Healthcare Providers Systems (CAHPS) survey. Methods: The SEER-CAHPS resource includes 1973-2011 (diagnosis, incidence, mortality, sociodemographic data), CAHPS survey 1998-2013 (sociodemographic, health status,...
6595 Background: Care experience ratings are recognized as measures of healthcare quality. Here we introduce a new, public data resource, SEER-CAHPS, which links cancer registry from the National Cancer Institute’s Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) program with Medicare claims Consumer Assessment Healthcare Providers Systems (MCAHPS) survey. Methods: The SEER-CAHPS resource includes 1973-2011 (diagnosis, incidence, mortality, sociodemographic data), CAHPS survey 1998-2013...
