Previous research has indicated a possible association between psychiatric conditions, particularly schizophrenia, and an increased risk of breast cancer. However, the specific risk of breast cancer in women with schizophrenia, compared with those with other psychiatric disorders and the general population, remains controversial and needs further clarification.</p><p><strong>Aims: </strong>To estimate the risk of breast cancer among people with schizophrenia compared with people with other psychiatric disorders and people in the general population.</p><p><strong>Method: </strong>We utilised medical claims data of women aged 18 to 80 years in the Korean National Health Information Database from 2007 to 2018. Individuals with schizophrenia were defined as women with ICD-10 codes F20 or F25 (<i>n</i> = 224 612). The control groups were defined as women with other psychiatric disorders (<i>n</i> = 224 612) and women in the general Korean population (<i>n</i> = 449 224). Cases and controls were matched by index date and age, in a 1:1:2 ratio.

{"title":"Equal, equitable or exacerbating inequalities: patterns and predictors of social prescribing referrals in 160 128 UK patients.","authors":"Feifei Bu, Daniel Hayes, Alexandra Burton, Daisy Fancourt","doi":"10.1192/bjp.2024.141","DOIUrl":"10.1192/bjp.2024.141","url":null,"abstract":"<p><strong>Background: </strong>Social prescribing is growing rapidly globally as a way to tackle social determinants of health. However, whom it is reaching and how effectively it is being implemented remains unclear.</p><p><strong>Aims: </strong>To gain a comprehensive picture of social prescribing in the UK, from referral routes, reasons, to contacts with link workers and prescribed interventions.</p><p><strong>Method: </strong>This study undertook the first analyses of a large database of administrative data from over 160 000 individuals referred to social prescribing across the UK. Data were analysed using descriptive analyses and regression modelling, including logistic regression for binary outcomes and negative binomial regression for count variables.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>Mental health was the most common referral reason and mental health interventions were the most common interventions prescribed. Between 72% and 85% of social prescribing referrals were from medical routes (primary or secondary healthcare). Although these referrals demonstrated equality in reaching across sociodemographic groups, individuals from more deprived areas, younger adults, men, and ethnic minority groups were reached more equitably via non-medical routes (e.g. self-referral, school, charity). Despite 90% of referrals leading to contact with a link worker, only 38% resulted in any intervention being received. A shortage of provision of community activities - especially ones relevant to mental health, practical support and social relationships - was evident. There was also substantial heterogeneity in how social prescribing is implemented across UK nations.</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>Mental health is the leading reason for social prescribing referrals, demonstrating its relevance to psychiatrists. But there are inequalities in referrals. Non-medical referral routes could play an important role in addressing inequality in accessing social prescribing and therefore should be prioritised. Additionally, more financial and infrastructural resource and strategic planning are needed to address low intervention rates. Further investment into large-scale data platforms and staff training are needed to continue monitoring the development and distribution of social prescribing.</p>","PeriodicalId":9259,"journal":{"name":"British Journal of Psychiatry","volume":" ","pages":"1-9"},"PeriodicalIF":8.7,"publicationDate":"2024-10-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7616880/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142495516","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
