Compliance With Recommendations of the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (Seer) Treatment Data Use Agreement
INTRODUCTION: The Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) Program collects data on the first course of cancer treatment, but no and unknown receipt of treatment cannot be distinguished for radiation therapy (RT) and chemotherapy. As part of the Data Use Agreement (DUA), users must acknowledge that they understand the data limitations and agree to include a description of the limitations in any analyses published using the data. The obj…
Estimating life expectancy adjusted by self-rated health status in the United States
Considerable shortage in life expectancy due to poor self-rated health existed. The life table developed can be helpful by including a patient perspective on their health and be used in conjunction with other predictive models in clinical decision making, particularly for younger adults in poor health, for whom life tables including comorbid conditions are limited
Urban/Rural Differences in Breast and Cervical Cancer Incidence
Estimating average annual per cent change in trend analysis
Trends in incidence or mortality rates over a specified time interval are usually described by the conventional annual per cent change (cAPC), under the assumption of a constant rate of change. When this assumption does not hold over the entire time interval, the trend may be characterized using the annual per cent changes from segmented analysis (sAPCs). This approach assumes that the change in rates is constant over each time partition defined …
Improvement in the Diagnostic Evaluation of a Positive Fecal Occult Blood Test in an Integrated Health Care Organization
BACKGROUND: Screening for fecal occult blood can be effective in reducing colorectal cancer mortality only if positive tests are appropriately followed up with complete diagnostic evaluation (ie, colonoscopy or flexible sigmoidoscopy with double contrast barium enema) and treatment. OBJECTIVES: To examine whether rates of complete diagnostic evaluation after a positive fecal occult blood test (FOBT) have improved over time after the implementatio…
Permutation tests for joinpoint regression with applications to cancer rates
The identification of changes in the recent trend is an important issue in the analysis of cancer mortality and incidence data. We apply a joinpoint regression model to describe such continuous changes and use the grid-search method to fit the regression function with unknown joinpoints assuming constant variance and uncorrelated errors. We find the number of significant joinpoints by performing several permutation tests, each of which has a corr…
Use of Medicare Hospital and Physician Data to Assess Breast Cancer Incidence
OBJECTIVES: Health claims data have the potential of being an inexpensive, timely, and nationally representative source of information about cancer. This study examined the utility of Medicare hospital and physician data as an independent source to identify incident breast cancer cases. METHODS: Data came from Medicare and the National Cancer Institute's SEER cancer registries. From 1992, for women residing in the SEER states (n = 659,260), Medic…
Disenrollment of Medicare Cancer Patients from Health Maintenance Organizations
OBJECTIVES: There is concern that financial incentives in health maintenance organizations (HMOs) might result in pressures to induce sicker members to disenroll. The authors compared disenrollment rates of Medicare HMO enrollees with cancer with disenrollment rates for cancer-free enrollees, using Medicare enrollment files linked to population-based tumor registry data from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) Program. METHODS:…
