County-level racial disparities in prostate cancer-specific mortality from 2005 to 2020.

Background: Local conditions where people live continue to influence prostate cancer outcomes. By examining local characteristics associated with trends in Black-White differences in prostate cancer-specific mortality over time, we aim to identify factors driving county-level prostate cancer-specific mortality disparities over a 15-year period.

Methods: We linked county-level data (Area Health Resource File) with clinicodemographic data of men with prostate cancer (Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results registry) from 2005 to 2020.

Engaging Men of Diverse Racial and Ethnic Groups With Advanced Prostate Cancer in the Design of an mHealth Diet and Exercise Intervention: Focus Group Study.

Background: Healthy diet and exercise can improve quality of life and prognosis among men with prostate cancer. Understanding the perceived barriers to lifestyle change and patient preferences in a diverse cohort of men with prostate cancer is necessary to inform mobile health (mHealth) lifestyle interventions and increase health equity.

Objective: We conducted a multisite study to understand the preferences, attitudes, and health behaviors related to diet and lifestyle in this patient population.

Rapid Utilization of Telehealth in a Comprehensive Cancer Center as a Response to COVID-19: Cross-Sectional Analysis.

Background: The emergence of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic in March 2020 created unprecedented challenges in the provision of scheduled ambulatory cancer care. As a result, there has been a renewed focus on video-based telehealth consultations as a means to continue ambulatory care.

Objective: The aim of this study is to analyze the change in video visit volume at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) Comprehensive Cancer Center in response to COVID-19 and compare patient demographics and appointment data from January 1, 2020, and in the 11 weeks after the transition to video visits.
