Preparing for future pandemics
Vaccine hesitancy remains a significant barrier to the success of global vaccination campaigns and vaccine programs. Understanding people’s perceptions of vaccines on social media during disease outbreaks can aid in reducing socially induced vaccine hesitancy and improve program implementation. Social media is an increasingly valuable tool for assessing public perceptions on critical issues, including vaccine adoption. This study examines percept…
Mental health symptoms and discrimination among immigrant and US-born Hispanic or Latino adults during the Covid-19 pandemic
Mental health symptoms and birthplace were significantly associated with experiences of discrimination among Hispanic or Latino individuals, with more pronounced risks for US-born individuals. These findings highlight birthplace-related disparities and broader disparities in mental health and discrimination within the growing US Hispanic or Latino population. More research should explore potential mechanisms for bidirectional associations between…
Examining Disparities in Current E-Cigarette Use among U.S. Adults before and after the WHO Declaration of the Covid-19 Pandemic in March 2020
This paper aims to estimate the prevalence of e-cigarette use before and after the COVID-19 pandemic declaration and to delineate disparities in use across subpopulations. Data were derived from the 2020 Health Information National Trends Survey ( N = 3865) to conduct weighted multivariable logistic regression and marginal analyses. The overall prevalence of current e-cigarette use increased from 4.79% to 8.63% after the COVID-19 pandemic declara…
A National Study of Colorectal Cancer Survivorship Disparities
Introduction: Long–standing disparities in colorectal cancer (CRC) outcomes and survival between Whites and Blacks have been observed. A person–centered approach using latent class analysis (LCA) is a novel methodology to assess and address CRC health disparities. LCA can overcome statistical challenges from subgroup analyses that would normally impede variable–centered analyses like regression. Aim was to identify risk profiles and differences i…
Sociodemographic and Geographic Disparities of Prostate Cancer Treatment Delay in Tennessee
The relationship of social determinants of health, Appalachian residence, and prostate cancer treatment delay among Tennessee adults is relatively unknown. We used multivariate logistic regression on 2005–2015 Tennessee Cancer Registry data of adults aged ≥18 diagnosed with prostate cancer. The outcome of treatment delay was more than 90 days without surgical or nonsurgical intervention from date of diagnosis. Social determinants in the populatio…
