Community-level Social Vulnerability and Cervical Cancer Mortality Among Young and Old Adults in the State of Alabama
In addition to individual factors, differences in community-level factors impact mortality rates of cervical cancer (CC), especially in the Southeast United States, where CC one-year mortality is significantly higher than national average. This study investigated the association between community-level social vulnerability measured using the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s Social Vulnerability Index (SVI) and overall and one-year CC …
Sexual risk characteristics, social vulnerability, and anal cancer screening uptake among men living with HIV in the deep south
Without standard guidelines, there is a critical need to examine anal cancer screening uptake in the South which has the highest HIV incidence in the U.S. We identified factors associated with screening among men living with HIV (MLHIV) at a large academic HIV outpatient clinic in Alabama. Relationships between sociodemographic, clinical, sexual risk characteristics and screening were examined using T-tests, Fisher’s exact, Chi-square, and logist…
Geographical and Racial Disparities in Head and Neck Cancer Diagnosis in South-Eastern United States
Background: Rurality, race, and age at diagnosis are important predictors in head and neck cancer (HNC) prognosis. However, literature on the associations of rurality and race with age at HNC diagnosis is limited. Data on geographical, racial, and gender disparities in young HNC patients (diagnosed ≤45 years) are also scarce. Materials and Methods: This retrospective study assesses rural–urban, racial, and gender disparities in age at HNC diagnos…
Prevalence and incidence of early childhood caries among A frican‐ A merican children in A labama
The majority of children developed caries during the 3-year follow-up, which is much higher than the 32 percent prevalence of caries among African-American children under age 6 years in National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey from 1999 to 2002
Evidence for novel genetic loci associated with metabolic traits in Yup'ik people
OBJECTIVES: To identify genomic regions associated with fasting plasma lipid profiles, insulin, glucose, and glycosylated hemoglobin in a Yup'ik study population, and to evaluate whether the observed associations between genetic factors and metabolic traits were modified by dietary intake of marine derived omega-3 polyunsaturated acids (n-3 PUFA). METHODS: A genome-wide linkage scan was conducted among 982 participants of the Center for Alaska Na…
Effects of Chronic Stress and Interleukin-10 Gene Polymorphisms on Antibody Response to Tetanus Vaccine in Family Caregivers of Patients With Alzheimer’s Disease
OBJECTIVE: To assess the effects of psychological stress on the antibody response to tetanus vaccine adjusting for cytokine gene polymorphisms and other nongenetic factors in caregivers of patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD). METHODS: A family-based follow-up study was conducted in 119 spouses and offspring of community-dwelling patients with AD. Psychological stress was measured by the Perceived Stress Scale (PSS) and the Center for Epidemiol…
