Abstract

Introduction: Cancer screening researchers have long observed that Latinas are less likely to be mammogram adherent, but little is understood how this varies by citizenship status. Methods: Logistic regression analysis. The sample size was weighed according to CDC specifications. There were 1002 latina women in the sample. The 2016 National Health Interview Survey was utilized. Results: Compared to naturalized Latina women, both U.S. citizen and non-citizen Latina women are less likely to be mammogram adherent (p Findings: Cancer screening researchers benefit from disaggregating Latina ethnicity by citizenship status to develop more tailored interventions regarding mammogram adherence in this population. This study points to the need for policy makers to advocate for Latina populations impacted by insurance coverage disparities. Citation Format: Roman B. Johnson, Sejong Bae.

3346:保险对拉丁裔和公民身份的乳房x光检查依从性的影响

癌症筛查研究人员长期以来观察到，拉丁美洲人不太可能坚持乳房x光检查，但很少了解这种情况如何因公民身份而变化。方法:Logistic回归分析。样本量按照CDC规范进行称重。样本中有1002名拉丁裔女性。采用2016年全国健康访谈调查。结果:与入籍的拉丁裔妇女相比，美国公民和非公民拉丁裔妇女都不太可能坚持乳房x光检查(p)。研究结果:癌症筛查研究人员受益于按公民身份分类拉丁裔，以开发更有针对性的干预措施，针对该人群的乳房x光检查依从性。这项研究指出，政策制定者需要为受保险覆盖差距影响的拉丁裔人口提供支持。引文格式:Roman B.
