Endometrial Cancer: Socioeconomic Status and Racial/Ethnic Differences in Stage at Diagnosis, Treatment, and Survival
Objective. We evaluated the association between socioeconomic status and racial/ ethnic differences in endometrial cancer stage at diagnosis, treatment, and survival. Methods. We conducted a population-based study among 3656 women. Results. Multivariate analyses showed that either race/ethnicity or income, but not both, was associated with advanced-stage disease. Age, stage at diagnosis, and income were independent predictors of hysterectomy. Afr…
A two-step intervention of increase mammography among women aged 65 and older
OBJECTIVES: This study evaluated a two-step intervention for mammography screening among older women. METHODS: Four hundred and sixty women, identified from physician practices, were randomized to a control or a two-step intervention (physician letter and peer counseling call) group. Women in the intervention group who obtained a mammogram received a grocery coupon. RESULTS: Over the 12 months of the study, more women in the intervention group th…
The Use of a Rapid Enzymatic Assay in the Field for the Detection of Infections Associated with Adult Periodontitis
There are few objective assays for studies of the epidemiology of periodontal diseases. The PerioScan is an assay capable of detecting three periodontal pathogens, namely T. denticola, P. gingivalis, and B. forsythus, which have been associated with adult periodontitis. The PerioScan was tested in a sample of 301 Brazilians. Clinical indices--bleeding, probing depth, gingival index, and periodontal index--were recorded from four sites in each sub…
Breast cancer and oral contraceptive use
The risk of breast cancer in relation to oral contraceptive use was evaluated in a case-control study of 1191 patients with breast cancer and 5026 control patients. For ever-use compared with never-use, the estimated relative risk of breast cancer was 1.0 (95% confidence interval 0.9-1.2). Use of oral contraceptives for five or more years was not associated with breast cancer, regardless of whether use had ended as much as 10 or more years previo…
