Prevalence and incidence of comorbidities associated with gastric cancer

-
Background: Understanding the burden of comorbidities in patients with gastric cancer may aid in treatment planning and evaluating the safety of new treatments. Methods: Using the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER)–Medicare combined dataset, we identified 12,612 patients diagnosed with gastric cancer 2000–2007. A cohort of 12,612 cancer-free individuals was frequency-matched by Medicare enrollment year and county of residence. Subjects were ≥66 years-old at index date to allow for ≥1 full year of Medicare coverage. Prevalence the year before index date and 3- and 12-month incidence rates (per 100 person-years) after index date were estimated for 42 common comorbidities. Results: Comorbidities with the highest (≥8%) 3-month incidence in patients with gastric cancer are shown. Conclusions: Comorbidity prevalence before index date was modestly higher, and incidence rates after index date were much higher in gastric cancer patients than in cancer-free individuals.

Identification of major dietary patterns in Korean adults and their association with cancer risk in the Cancer Screening Examination Cohort. Cancer is the primary cause of disease-related death in Korea. The purposes of this study were to confirm the major dietary patterns and to evaluate whether there were associations between these identified dietary patterns and the risk of cancer based on data from the Cancer Screening Examination Cohort (CSEC) 2004-2008 of the National Cancer Center (NCC) of Korea. This study included 8 024 subjects who completed a written survey on demographics and lifestyles, as well as a 3-day dietary record. Dietary patterns were identified by factor analysis using the principal component analysis method. The associations between the identified dietary patterns and cancer risk were examined using Cox proportional hazards regression models. During a median follow-up period of 9.0 years, 425 cancer cases were newly diagnosed. We identified 4 majo...
