Nogueira, Ph.D., M.P.H., from the American Cancer    Society in Atlanta, and colleagues selected individuals aged 18    to 49 years racialized as non-Hispanic Black and White    (self-identified) and newly diagnosed with CRC during 2004 to    2019. Individuals who received recommended care, which included    staging, surgery, lymph node evaluation, chemotherapy, and    radiotherapy, were considered to have received    guideline-concordant care.  <\/p>\n<p>    Overall, 20.8 and 14.5 percent of the 84,882 patients with    colon cancer and 62,573 with rectal cancer, respectively, were    racialized as Black. The researchers found that the likelihood    of not receiving guideline-concordant care for colon and rectal    cancers was increased for individuals racialized as Black    (adjusted hazard ratios, 1.18 and 1.27, respectively). Among    patients with colon and rectal cancer, 28.2 and 21.6 percent of    the disparity, respectively, was explained by health insurance.    Compared with individuals racialized as White, those racialized    as Black had increased time to adjuvant chemotherapy for colon    cancer and neoadjuvant chemoradiation for rectal cancer.  <\/p>\n<p>    \"With health insurance being the largest modifiable factor    contributing to racial disparities in this study, it's critical    to eliminate this barrier,\" Nogueira said in a statement.    \"Expanding access to health insurance coverage could help    improve colorectal care and outcomes from individuals of all    racialized groups.\"  <\/p>\n<p>    Two authors disclosed ties to industry.  <\/p>\n<p>    Abstract\/Full    Text (subscription or payment may be required)  <\/p>\n<p><!-- Auto Generated --><\/p>\n<p>Read more here:<br \/>\n<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.healthday.com\/healthpro-news\/cancer\/receipt-of-guideline-concordant-care-lower-for-black-colorectal-cancer-patients\" title=\"Disparities in Guideline-Concordant Care Found for Black CRC ... - HealthDay\" rel=\"noopener\">Disparities in Guideline-Concordant Care Found for Black CRC ... - HealthDay<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> TUESDAY, Nov. 14, 2023 (HealthDay News) -- Individuals racialized as Black and newly diagnosed with colorectal cancer (CRC) receive worse and less-timely guideline-concordant care, according to a study published online Nov. 8 in the Journal of Clinical Oncology.  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.euvolution.com\/prometheism-transhumanism-posthumanism\/transhuman-news-blog\/human-genetics\/disparities-in-guideline-concordant-care-found-for-black-crc-healthday\/\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[27],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1119322","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-human-genetics"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.euvolution.com\/prometheism-transhumanism-posthumanism\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1119322"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.euvolution.com\/prometheism-transhumanism-posthumanism\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.euvolution.com\/prometheism-transhumanism-posthumanism\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.euvolution.com\/prometheism-transhumanism-posthumanism\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.euvolution.com\/prometheism-transhumanism-posthumanism\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1119322"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.euvolution.com\/prometheism-transhumanism-posthumanism\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1119322\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.euvolution.com\/prometheism-transhumanism-posthumanism\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1119322"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.euvolution.com\/prometheism-transhumanism-posthumanism\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1119322"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.euvolution.com\/prometheism-transhumanism-posthumanism\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1119322"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
