Social and Healthcare Disruptions Due to the Covid-19 Pandemic and Associations with Psychosocial Well-Being Among Cancer Survivors With and Without HIV
Manifestations and Lived Experiences of Structural Racism for Racial and Ethnic Minority Communities Affected by HIV Across the United States
Objective: To elucidate some of the manifestations of structural racism as a root cause of racialized inequities in HIV in the context of COVID-19, centered through the lens of community members with lived experiences. Methods: We partnered with eight community-based organizations to conduct focus group discussions structured around COVID-19 and HIV-related experiences. We utilized inductive coding and thematic analysis. Results: We conducted 10 …

Associations of County-Level Social Determinants of Health with Covid-19 Related Hospitalization Among People with HIV
Individually, the COVID-19 and HIV pandemics have differentially impacted minoritized groups due to the role of social determinants of health (SDoH) in the U.S. Little is known how the collision of these two pandemics may have exacerbated adverse health outcomes. We evaluated county-level SDoH and associations with hospitalization after a COVID-19 diagnosis among people with (PWH) and without HIV (PWOH) by racial/ethnic groups. We used the U.S. N…
The Intersections of Covid-19, HIV, and Race/Ethnicity
Cancer Incidence, Mortality, Years of Life Lost, Years Lived With Disability, and Disability-Adjusted Life Years for 29 Cancer Groups From 2010 to 2019
IMPORTANCE: The Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, and Risk Factors Study 2019 (GBD 2019) provided systematic estimates of incidence, morbidity, and mortality to inform local and international efforts toward reducing cancer burden. OBJECTIVE: To estimate cancer burden and trends globally for 204 countries and territories and by Sociodemographic Index (SDI) quintiles from 2010 to 2019. EVIDENCE REVIEW: The GBD 2019 estimation methods were used t…
The Black Panther, Masculinity Barriers to Medical Care, and Colorectal Cancer Screening Intention Among Unscreened American Indian/Alaska Native, Black, and White Men
Objective To determine if masculinity barriers to medical care and the death from colorectal cancer (CRC) of actor Chadwick Boseman (The Black Panther) influenced CRC early-detection screening intent among unscreened American Indian/Alaska Native (AIAN) and Non-Hispanic-Black (Black) men compared with Non-Hispanic-White (White) men. Methods Using a consumer-panel, we surveyed U.S. men aged 18–75 years ( N = 895) using the 24-item Masculinity Barr…
Financial hardship and mental health among cancer survivors during the Covid-19 pandemic
Purpose: Our objective was to (1) identify associated characteristics of financial hardship (FH), and (2) evaluate associations of FH with mental health symptoms among cancer survivors during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods: = 854,7.6%). We defined FH using the following question: "Based on your current financial situation, how would you pay for an unexpected $400 expense?" Multivariable Poisson regression was used to estimate adjusted prevalence …
Food Insecurity Disparities and Mental Health Impacts Among Cancer Survivors During the Covid-19 Pandemic
Introduction: Food insecurity can negatively impact adherence and receipt of high-quality cancer care. The purpose of the study was to (1) compare the prevalence of COVID-19-associated food insecurity by cancer history and (2) examine determinants associated with COVID-19-related food insecurity among cancer survivors. Methods: We used nationally representative data from the 2020 COVID-19 Household Impact Survey (n=10,760). Our primary exposure w…
Food Insecurity, Financial Hardship, and Mental Health Among Multiple Asian American Ethnic Groups
Background: The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely impacted the financial and mental well-being of U.S. adults, however, Asian American (AA)-specific data are lacking, particularly disaggregated by AA ethnicity. Our objective was to evaluate food insecurity (FI), financial hardship, and mental health among disaggregated AA ethnic groups during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods: ) and provided as follows: Chinese American, South Asian, Filipino+Vietname…
Burden of Food Insecurity and Mental Health Symptoms among Adults with Cardiometabolic Conditions during the Covid-19 Pandemic
Our study objectives were to (1) identify the national prevalence and patterns of food insecurity among adults with and without a history of CMCs and (2) determine associations between food insecurity and mental health outcomes among adults with CMCs during the early COVID-19 pandemic period (April−June 2020). We computed prevalence ratios with Poisson regression using the robust estimation of standard errors to identify disparities in the report…
Social Engagement and Mental Health Symptoms Across Asian American Ethnic Groups During the Covid-19 Pandemic
Heterogeneity of social engagement and mental health symptoms across AA ethnicities was observed. Understanding associations between social engagement and mental health within different communities is necessary to provide culturally and linguistically appropriate mental health treatment and care
Spatial, temporal, and demographic patterns in prevalence of smoking tobacco use and attributable disease burden in 204 countries and territories, 1990–2019
BACKGROUND: Ending the global tobacco epidemic is a defining challenge in global health. Timely and comprehensive estimates of the prevalence of smoking tobacco use and attributable disease burden are needed to guide tobacco control efforts nationally and globally. METHODS: We estimated the prevalence of smoking tobacco use and attributable disease burden for 204 countries and territories, by age and sex, from 1990 to 2019 as part of the Global B…
Prevalence and Risk Factors of Covid-19 Symptoms among U.S. Adults with Allergies
This study included 10,760 participants, of whom 44% self-reported having allergies. Adults with allergies were more likely to report physical symptoms compared to adults without allergies including fever (aOR 1.7, 95% CI 1.44-1.99), cough (aOR 1.9, 95% CI 1.60-2.26), shortness of breath (aOR 2.04, 95% CI 1.71-2.43), and loss of taste or sense of smell (aOR 1.9, 95% CI 1.58-2.28). Adults with allergies were more likely to report feeling nervous (…
Health Care Access Measures and Palliative Care Use by Race/Ethnicity among Metastatic Gynecological Cancer Patients in the United States
Palliative care improves quality-of-life and extends survival, however, is underutilized among gynecological cancer patients in the United States (U.S.). Our objective was to evaluate associations between healthcare access (HCA) measures and palliative care utilization among U.S. gynecological cancer patients overall and by race/ethnicity. We used 2004-2016 data from the U.S. National Cancer Database and included patients with metastatic (stage I…
Perceptions and Patterns of Cigarette and E-Cigarette Use among Hispanics
There are documented disparities in smoking behaviors among Hispanic adults in the U.S., but little is known about patterns of e-cigarette use. Using data from the HINTS 5 cycle 1-3, we examined cigarette and e-cigarette history and current use, as well as perceptions of the dangers of e-cigarette use relative to cigarette use. Primary predictors were Hispanic ethnic group, gender, age, education, income, and English language proficiency. Binary …
Mental health among LGBTQ cannabis users during the Covid-19 pandemic
The purpose of this study is to compare the responses of LGBTQ cannabis consumers and their non-LGBTQ counterparts on anxiety, depression, substance use, and COVID-19 coping and stress during the pandemic. Data from an internet-survey of cannabis users during the COVID-19 pandemic were analyzed ( N = 2,319). Approximately 18% of the sample identified as LGBTQ. Bivariate analyses were used to examine the relationship between LGBTQ identity and sym…
Associations Between Chronic Health Conditions and Covid-19 Preventive Behaviors Among a Nationally Representative Sample of U.S. Adults
This study provides U.S. national prevalence estimates and differences in adherence to COVID-19 preventive behaviors among those with and without the presence of underlying chronic health conditions. The prevalence of key preventive measures was high in the overall sample. Yet, engagement in COVID-19-related preventive behaviors varied significantly across chronic disease conditions. Messages around continued maintenance of the behaviors should b…
