Purpose Residential segregation is recognized as an upstream driver of poor health, yet few studies have evaluated its impact on breast cancer incidence at a local level. We examined associations of neighborhood residential segregation with breast cancer (BC) incidence in the Multiethnic Cohort Study (MEC). Methods Measures of Index of Concentration at the Extremes were developed to assess residential segregation by income, ed...
Purpose Lung and bronchus cancer (LBC) is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths. This study examines the relationship between exposure to industrial air pollution and lung and bronchus cancer survival (LBCS) in New Mexico, USA, from 1990 to 2019. Methods This retrospective cohort study included data from 18, 273 lung and bronchus cancer patients. Residential exposure to nine industrial air pollutants was estimated for eac...
Global trends in the burden of non-Hodgkin Lymphoma: a comprehensive analysis from 1990 to 2045NARA Subscribed
Purpose To analyze global trends in the non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) burden from 1990 to 2021 and forecast future trajectories from 2022 to 2045. Methods Using data from the GBD 2021 Study, we extracted age-standardized incidence, mortality, and disability-adjusted life year (DALY) rates and estimated their average annual percent changes (AAPCs). Age-period-cohort models were constructed to assess temporal trends, and decomposit...
Purpose This study aimed to identify provider- and practice-level factors influencing human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine uptake among Chinese American (CA) adolescents. Despite increasing public health efforts, HPV vaccination rates in this population remain suboptimal, and knowledge on the link between provider/practice characteristics and vaccine uptake is limited. Methods We analyzed data from 1,272 CA adolescents (aged 13–...
Background Cachexia accounts for about 20% of all cancer-related deaths and it is indicative of poor prognosis and progressive functional impairment. The role of the gut microbiome in the development of cachexia in colorectal cancer (CRC) patients has not been established. Methods Pre-surgical stool samples from n = 103 stage I–III CRC patients in the ColoCare Study were analyzed using 16S rRNA gene sequencing (Illumina) to ch...
Sexual orientation and gender identity inequities in cervical cancer screening by race and ethnicityNARA Subscribed
Background In the United States, inequities in preventive health behaviors such as cervical cancer screening have been documented. Sexual orientation, gender identity, and race/ethnicity all individually contribute to such disparities. However, little work has investigated their joint impact on screening behavior. Methods Using sampling weighted data from the 2016 and 2018 Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System, we assesse...
Associations between cigarette smoking and biliary tract cancer by anatomic subsite and sex: a prospective cohort study in JapanNARA Subscribed
Purpose Biliary tract cancer (BTC) has not been considered a tobacco-related cancer, largely because of inconclusive results from epidemiological studies. We herein evaluate the association between cigarette smoking and risk of death from BTC by anatomic subsite and sex using data from a large, prospective cohort study in Japan. Methods The present study included 97,030 Japanese individuals who were enrolled in 1988–1990 and f...
