Clustering of Social and Physical Pain Variables and Their Association With Mortality in Two Population-Based Cohorts
OBJECTIVE: Social pain and physical pain are related bidirectionally, but how these variables cluster in the population is unknown. METHODS: This study included 2833 women from the Study of Women's Health Across the Nation (SWAN), a community-based cohort of middle-aged women, and 3972 women from the Pathways Study, a population-based cohort of women diagnosed with American Joint Committee on Cancer stages I-IV breast cancer diagnosed between 200…
I Had to Make Them Feel at Ease
Social scientific studies of social support predominantly focus on the positive associations between social support and emotional well-being. The negative aspects of social support have received much less attention. We conducted semi-structured interviews of women with breast cancer ( n = 47) to examine the emotional strain associated with social support and how recipients navigate it in ways that protect themselves and their relationships. Based…
The effect of multiple recruitment contacts on response rates and patterns of missing data in a survey of bladder cancer survivors 6 months after cystectomy
Use of iDXA spine scans to evaluate total and visceral abdominal fat
Objectives Abdominal fat may be a better predictor than body mass index (BMI) for risk of metabolically‐related diseases, such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and some cancers. We sought to validate the percent fat reported on dual energy X‐ray absorptiometry (DXA) regional spine scans (spine fat fraction, SFF) against abdominal fat obtained from total body scans using the iDXA machine (General Electric, Madison, WI), as previously done on t…
Breast Cancer Outcomes in a Racially and Ethnically Diverse Cohort of Insured Women
Our data suggest that disparities in subsequent breast cancer outcomes were more strongly associated with tumor characteristics and non-use of adjuvant treatments than race/ethnicity
Dual energy X‐ray absorptiometry spine scans to determine abdominal fat in postmenopausal women
The strong correlation between spine fat fraction and DXA abdominal fat measures make it suitable for further development in postmenopausal chronic disease risk prediction models. Am. J. Hum. Biol. 28:918-926, 2016. © 2016Wiley Periodicals, Inc
A Hybrid Approach to Identify Subsequent Breast Cancer Using Pathology and Automated Health Information Data
PURPOSE: Many cancer registries do not capture recurrence; thus, outcome studies have often relied on time-intensive and costly manual chart reviews. Our goal was to build an effective and efficient method to reduce the numbers of chart reviews when identifying subsequent breast cancer (BC) using pathology and electronic health records. We evaluated our methods in an independent sample. METHODS: We developed methods for identifying subsequent BC …
