P2-225 Prostate-specific antigen testing awareness and participation in New South Wales, Australia
Background Although the prostate-specific antigen (PSA) test is widely used to screen for prostate cancer, there is very little information on the characteristics of men who are aware of the PSA test, and their patterns of PSA testing. Methods A cross-sectional study used computer assisted telephone interviews to collect data in New South Wales, Australia. Multinomial logistic regression identified the factors independently associated with the aw…
P2-296 Differences in socioeconomic status, spread of disease, rural residence and access to surgery do not explain lower survival from breast cancer for aboriginal women
Introduction We wanted to investigate any differences in breast cancer survival for Aboriginal women compared with non- Aboriginal women in New South Wales, Australia (NSW). Methods All women diagnosed with primary invasive breast cancer in NSW in 1994–2002 (n=31 525) were probabilistically linked with all NSW hospital admissions. 296 women identified as Aboriginal at any hospital admission. Proportional hazards models were used to investigate th…
P1-346 Epidemiology and indigenous health policy
Introduction The Aboriginal Patterns of Cancer Care Project (APOCC) is investigating why Aboriginal people with cancer in New South Wales (NSW) Australia have a 60% higher mortality than non-Aboriginal people. Translating the results from APOCC to effect changes policy practice in an Indigenous health context presents a complex challenge. Methods The APOCC team hosted a 1 day workshop bringing together policymakers, Aboriginal community members, …
P1-63 Estimating fraction cured from cancer
Background Estimates of the fraction of patients cured from cancer provide important information to both patients and clinicians. But how reliable are the estimates? Methods Three statistical approaches, based on similar assumptions that a fraction of patients will be cured from cancer, were used to estimate the fraction cured. The first approach was CANSURV software and the second was developed by De Angelis et al (1999), both using grouped surv…
P1-379 Projecting prevalence by stage of care for colon cancer and estimating future health service needs in New South Wales Australia
Aim To estimate the number of colon cancer patients in New South Wales (NSW) Australia requiring cancer care in the future. Methods Prevalence of first primary colon cancer was estimated and projected forward, by stage of clinical care (initial care, long-term survivors, monitoring, and last year of life), for 2007–2016. Then using data from a patterns of care study for colorectal cancer, we estimated the type and amount of treatments that will b…
Low back pain in Hong Kong
STUDY OBJECTIVE--To compare the prevalence of low back pain and associated disability in Hong Kong with that in Britain, and to explore whether differences could be explained by certain known risk factors. DESIGN--A cross sectional survey with information collected at interview. Findings were compared with those from an earlier survey in Britain. SETTING--Two housing blocks in Hong Kong. SUBJECTS--Altogether 288 men and 364 women aged 18 years or…
