Cancer Incidence Among Arab Americans in California, Detroit, and New Jersey Seer Registries
Objectives. We calculated cancer incidence for Arab Americans in California; Detroit, Michigan; and New Jersey, and compared rates with non-Hispanic, non-Arab Whites (NHNAWs); Blacks; and Hispanics. Methods. We conducted a study using population-based data. We linked new cancers diagnosed in 2000 from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results Program (SEER) to an Arab surname database. We used standard SEER definitions and methodology for c…
Healthcare access and mammography screening in Michigan
Access to healthcare is important to ensuring appropriate cancer screening among women in Michigan
The Influence of Race, Ethnicity, and Individual Socioeconomic Factors on Breast Cancer Stage at Diagnosis
Objectives. Previous research has generally found that racial/ethnic differences in breast cancer stage at diagnosis attenuate when measures of socioeconomic status are included in the analysis, although most previous research measured socioeconomic status at the contextual level. This study investigated the relation between race/ethnicity, individual socioeconomic status, and breast cancer stage at diagnosis. Methods. Women with stage 0 to III b…
Correlates of Between-Surgeon Variation in Breast Cancer Treatments

OBJECTIVES: The objectives of this study were to evaluate variation in receipt of surgical treatment (ie, mastectomy or breast-conserving surgery with or without radiation) for women with stage I, II, or III breast cancer and receipt of breast reconstruction attributable to surgeons, and to assess factors associated with this betw…
