• Delayed Colorectal Cancer Diagnosis during the Covid-19 Pandemic in Alberta

  Incluir item

  The frequency of colorectal cancer (CRC) diagnosis has decreased due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Health system planning is needed to address the backlog of undiagnosed patients. We developed a framework for analyzing barriers to diagnosis and estimating patient volumes under different system relaunch scenarios. This retrospective study included CRC cases from the Alberta Cancer Registry for the pre-pandemic (1 January 2016-4 March 2020) and intra-p…

• A Randomized Multicenter Trial to Evaluate Simple Utility Elicitation Techniques in Patients With Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease

  BACKGROUND: Despite recommendations that patients rating their own health using utility and preference measures such as the feeling thermometer (FT) and standard gamble (SG) should also rate hypothetical marker states, little evidence supports marker state use. We evaluated whether the administration of marker states improves measurement properties of the FT and SG. METHODS: We randomized 217 patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease to compl…

• Burden of disease from Helicobacter pylori infection in western Canadian Arctic communities

  Katharine Fagan-Garcia, John Geary et al.

  The observed pattern of disease is consistent with increased risk of stomach cancer and reflects substantial inequity in the Hp-associated disease burden in western Arctic Canadian hamlets relative to most North American settings. This research adds to evidence that demonstrates the need for interventions aimed at reducing health risks from Hp infection in Indigenous Arctic communities
