The effect of YOCAS©® yoga on cancer-related fatigue and quality of life in older (60+) vs. younger (≤ 59) cancer survivors: Secondary analysis of a nationwide, multicenter, phase 3 randomized controlled trial.

Introduction: Older cancer survivors consistently express the need for interventions to reduce cancer-related fatigue (CRF) and maintain quality of life (QOL). Yoga is a promising treatment to address CRF and QOL. However, research comparing the efficacy of yoga for improving fatigue and QOL in older survivors (60+) vs.

Knowledge and beliefs about lung cancer screening among Black individuals at high risk: a qualitative approach.

Background: Despite its efficacy in reducing lung cancer (LC)-specific mortality by 20%, screening with low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) in eligible groups remains low (5-16%). Black individuals are more commonly affected by LC than other racial/ethnic groups in the United States (U.S.

The impact of in-house pathology services on downstaging cervical cancer in Tanzania over an 18-year period.

Purpose: Reducing time between cancer screening, diagnosis, and initiation of treatment is best achieved when services are available in the same hospital. Yet, comprehensive cancer centers are typically unavailable in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), where resources are limited and services scattered. This study explored the impact of establishing an in-house pathology laboratory at the largest public cancer hospital in Tanzania on the downstaging of cervical cancer.

Prevalence of Shared Decision-making in Prostate Cancer Screening in New York State.

Current guidelines recommend that physicians use a shared decision-making (SDM) approach to engage with patients on the potential benefits and harms of prostate cancer screening based on their individual risk. In a sample of 4,118 men aged 55-69 from the 2018 New York State Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance Survey (BRFSS), we compared the frequency of screening recommendations and SDM conversations according to four race/ethnic groups. In logistic regression, we evaluated the likelihood of SDM conversations between race/ethnic groups.

Follicle-stimulating hormone is associated with low bone mass in postmenopausal women.

Unlabelled: We evaluated the influence of two endogenous hormones on bone health in older women. Higher FSH was associated with bone disease, especially in lower estradiol environments. FSH attenuated the relationship between estradiol and bone.
