Abstract:

ImportanceRates of early-onset (before 50 years of age) colorectal cancer (EOCRC) are increasing, with notable differences across racial and ethnic groups. Limited data are available on EOCRC-related mortality differences when disaggregating racial and ethnic groups.ObjectiveTo investigate racial and ethnic differences in EOCRC mortality, including disaggregation of Asian American populations separately, including Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander populations and specific Asian American groups, and to quantify the contribution of clinical and sociodemographic factors accounting for the

Abstract:

Background: Consistent use of effective contraceptives is directly associated with a lower risk of unintended pregnancies, a significant public health burden in the U.S. The Asian American population is heterogeneous and fast-growing. However, patterns and disparities in contraceptive use among Asian American women, particularly within racial/ethnic subgroups, have been understudied, hindering effective family planning. Objectives: This study aimed to identify the prevalence of contraceptive use and its pattern in Asian American women using the 2015–2016 California Health and Interview Survey

Abstract:

e12528 Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) incidence has decreased over the past three decades, due in part to screening for pre-malignant polyps. Relatively little is known about CRC incidence among adults under age 50 (when screening recommendations commence for average-risk individuals). We examined CRC incidence trends with a focus on adults under age 50, in order to identify high-risk subgroups. Methods: 231,544 incident CRC cases (including 21,220 adults <50) from the California Cancer Registry from 1988-2009 were analyzed. We assessed age-specific incidence rates by race/ethnic group

Abstract:

Abstract Gastric cancer (GC) is the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. While overall incidence and mortality rates have dropped in recent decades, GC remains a significant cause of health disparities for many racial and ethnic minority groups in the US, including Hispanic/Latino Americans (HLAs). Despite a high minority cancer burden, few FDA-approved targeted therapies are available for GC. This can be partially explained by limited availability of cancer genome data and patient-derived models from racial/ethnic minority populations, hampering therapeutic target identifi

Abstract Background: Racial and ethnic disparities in HCC risk have been documented, but disparities across detailed racial and ethnic groups and the relative contribution of these factors to HCC risk across those groups has not been assessed. We assembled a pooled, EHR-based cohort linked to cancer registry data to study disparities in HCC risk among detailed racial and ethnic groups and to examine the relative contribution of known and putative HCC risk factors to disparities in risk. Methods: Adults with at least one in-person encounter in 2000-2017 within three healthcare systems, San Fran

Abstract Cognitive health of sexual and gender minority (SGM) older adults with intersecting racial/ethnic minority identities is an under-researched topic. This research utilizes data from Aging with Pride: National Health Sexuality/Gender study to examine differences in health-promoting and risk factors for cognitive impairment among African American and Hispanic SGM older adults. Informed by the Health Equity Promotion Model, bivariate statistics and linear regression models were applied to better understand subgroup differences in cognitive impairment and risk and protective factors.

Abstract:

This issue of the journal takes a comparative look at the intersection of schooling, language, identity, and public policy as they impact ethnic minority population groups both domestically and internationally. In the first article Amara Holstein examines the social and political fallout of the recent anti-bilingual education initiative in California. Claimed by many as being anti-immigrant and anti-Hispanic, Holstein contends that this initiative falls within a broad, historical lexicon of nativist sentiment and backlash intended to disempower Hispanics and other linguistic minorities in the

<p>This essay analyzes Japanese-American immigration into the American West through the prism of athletics, specifically by examining a series of contests between judoka and wrestlers from 1900 to 1920 in California. The popularity of these matches demonstrates the complex relationship between Japanese-Americans and the dominant European-American culture of the western states during this period. This complexity will be shown first by looking at the way in which martial arts are closely linked to national and ethnic identity. The strong barnstorming tradition in both judo and wrestling le

Abstract Supermarkets in California Orange County’s Little Saigon are key sites in the negotiation of ethnic identity in Vietnamese refugee communities. Vietnamese supermarkets operate within global capitalist frameworks, while simultaneously serving as local spaces where community dynamics and ethnic identities are continuously redefined. This article outlines the economic, political, and social systems that structure refugee lives and undergird their right-wing and/or politically conservative positions.

This rate is substantially lower than the national objective of 93% (Healthy People.gov, 2020).

Studies show that adherence to NCCN guidelines is associated with improved ovarian cancer survival. Asian Americans have been found to have higher ovarian cancer survival than non-Hispanic Whites although the likelihood of receiving adherent care appears to be comparable between the two racial groups. It is unclear whether there may be ethnic-specific differences in the receipt of adherent care among disaggregated Asian

PurposeAlthough uncommon, melanoma is associated with poor survival characteristics among African Americans and Hispanics compared with non-Hispanic whites (NHWs). Low socioeconomic status (SES) is also associated with poor survival among patients with melanoma, but it is not known whether this is because of SES itself or because of treatment disparities. We set out to determine this by using the large, population-based California Cancer Registry (CCR) database as a model.Patients and MethodsWe conducted a case-only analysis of CCR data (1993 to 2003), including a descriptive analysis of relev

By participating in a Spanish-language expressive culture that was sophisticated and cosmopolitan, musicians, singers, disc jockeys, impresarios, fans, and dancers rejected an Anglo-imposed cultural identity as racialized labor commodities, flirting instead with an appealing latinidad, or Latinness.
