Racial/Ethnic Disparities in Health Care Receipt Among Male Cancer Survivors
Objectives. We examined racial/ethnic disparities in health care receipt among a nationally representative sample of male cancer survivors. Methods. We identified men aged 18 years and older from the 2006–2010 National Health Interview Survey who reported a history of cancer. We assessed health care receipt in 4 self-reported measures: primary care visit, specialist visit, flu vaccination, and pneumococcal vaccination. We used hierarchical logist…
Smokeless tobacco use accelerates age-related loss of bone mineral density among older women in a multi-ethnic rural community
Quality of Diets Consumed by Older Rural Adults
Older adults residing in rural communities are at risk for low dietary quality because of a variety of social, physical and environmental circumstances. Minority elders are at additional risk because of poorer health status and lower socioeconomic status. This study evaluated the food group intake of 130 older (>70 years) African American (34%), European American (36%), and Native American (30%) residents of two rural communities in central North…

This report presents results from a National Cancer Institute-funded health education program conducted among the Lumbee tribe in North Carolina that was designed to increase the proportion of women, age 18 and older, who receive Pap smears to screen for cervical cancer. Th…
