Survival of epithelial ovarian cancer in Black women: a society to cell approach in the African American cancer epidemiology study (AACES)

Joellen M. M. Schildkraut et al.

Summary: This study describes the likely multi-factorial causes for the survival disparity among Black women with epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). The African American Cancer Epidemiology Study (AACES) is the largest cohort of Black women with EOC, and the results show that the five-year overall survival rate of AACES participants is lower compared to Black women in the Surveillance Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) registry and white women in SEER. A significant proportion of women in AACES have low levels of household income, education, and insurance coverage.

Deprivation and segregation in ovarian cancer survival among African American women: a mediation analysis

Andrew B. Lawson et al.

Summary: This study assessed the impact of deprivation and segregation indices on the survival of self-identified Black women diagnosed with ovarian cancer. The results showed that high socioeconomic status-related indices were associated with increased survival, while the index of concentration at the extremes-race had no significant impact on overall survival. The study highlights the importance of area-level economic indices and urbanization index in the survival of Black women with ovarian cancer.

Systematic review of neighborhood socioeconomic indices studied across the cancer control continuum

Kristen A. Sorice et al.

Summary: This systematic review identified and compared existing nSES indices studied across the cancer continuum, and highlighted the significant association between nSES and cancer outcomes. The direction of association varied by cancer site, race/ethnicity, and nSES index, indicating the complex relationship between nSES and cancer disparities.

Neighborhood deprivation and risk of mortality among men with prostate cancer: Findings from a long-term follow-up study

K. C. Madhav et al.

Summary: The study found that participants living in the most deprived neighborhoods had a higher risk of all-cause mortality and prostate cancer-specific mortality. Therefore, neighborhood-level resources or health interventions are essential to improve survival among men with PCa. Further research should focus on understanding the mechanisms through which the neighborhood environment impacts mortality.

Increasing Area Deprivation Index negatively impacts ovarian cancer survival

Demetra H. Hufnagel et al.

Summary: Both state and national Area Deprivation Indices are significantly associated with overall survival of ovarian cancer patients, with a 9% or 10% greater risk of death for each decile increase in state or national ADI, respectively. Increasing area-level deprivation may negatively impact ovarian cancer survival.

Prediction of optimal debulking surgery in ovarian cancer

Yong Jung Song

Summary: The main management of advanced ovarian cancer is maximal cytoreductive surgery followed by chemotherapy. Alternative treatments include neoadjuvant chemotherapy and interval debulking surgery for patients who are not suitable for maximal cytoreductive surgery. Predicting optimal debulking before treatment is crucial for the successful management of ovarian cancer, with various biomarkers and imaging studies being used for this purpose.
