摘要

目的被诊断患有浆细胞疾病(PCDs)的患者非常希望通过服用营养补充剂来增强体质。本调查研究了与维生素 D、ω-3 脂肪酸、姜黄/姜黄素和益生菌有关的观念、习惯和意识。方法在 2023 年 9 月至 2024 年 1 月期间,通过 HealthTree Cure Hub 收集了 480 份调查回复。结果研究对象主要为女性(58%)、65 岁以上(61%)、至少受过大学教育(67%)和来自美国(90%)。虽然白人参与者占大多数(78%),但包括非裔美国人、西班牙裔美国人和美国印第安人或阿拉斯加原住民在内的少数族裔占受访者的 9%。在确诊前,71%的人使用补充剂,确诊后明显增加了46%,使用率达到95%。患者主要从在线医疗媒体(45%)或医疗服务提供者(肿瘤学家 46%,初级保健医生 34%)处获得补充剂信息。使用补充剂的动机是支持免疫系统(70%)、预防营养缺乏(54%)和减缓癌症进展(38%)。值得注意的是,63% 的患者与他们的医生讨论过补充剂的问题,其中有 74% 的患者更倾向于肿瘤科医生的建议。绝大多数 91% 的患者表示有兴趣进一步研究补充剂的风险和益处。结论这项调查突出表明,随着诊断后补充剂使用量的增加,对补充剂进行进一步调查的需求也在不断增长,而且患者明显倾向于肿瘤专家的建议。尽管招募工作面临挑战,但要解决医疗保健方面的差异,就必须在未来的研究工作中纳入不同的参与者。随着该领域研究的深入,加强外联和招募策略至关重要。

Understanding Patterns of Supplement Use among Plasma Cell Disorder Patients

Purpose

Individuals diagnosed with plasma cell disorders (PCDs) have a significant interest to incorporate supplements to enhance their health. This survey investigates perceptions, habits, and awareness related to vitamin D, omega-3 fatty acids, turmeric/curcumin, and probiotics.

Methods

Between September 2023 and January 2024, 480 survey responses were gathered through HealthTree Cure Hub. Summary statistics were employed to assess the deidentified survey responses.

Results

The study population was predominantly female (58%), aged 65+ (61%), at least college educated (67%), and from the US (90%). While white participants formed the majority (78%), minorities including African Americans, Hispanics, and American Indian or Alaska Natives comprised 9% of the respondents. Prior to diagnosis, 71% used supplements, with a notable 46% increase post-diagnosis, reaching 95% usage. Patients primarily obtained supplement information from online medical media (45%) or from healthcare providers (oncologists 46%, primary care physicians 34%). Motivations for supplement use were immune system support (70%), preventing nutritional deficiencies (54%), and slowing cancer progression (38%). Notably, 63% of patients discussed supplements with their physicians, with a strong preference for oncologist recommendations (74%). An overwhelming 91% of patients expressed interest in further research on supplement risks and benefits.

Conclusion

This survey highlights the growing demand for further investigation into supplements, as supplement usage increased post-diagnosis and there was a notable preference for oncologist recommendations. Addressing healthcare disparities necessitates diverse participant inclusion in future research endeavors, despite recruitment challenges. Enhanced outreach and enrollment strategies are crucial as research in this area progresses.

期刊介绍: Journal of the National Medical Association, the official journal of the National Medical Association, is a peer-reviewed publication whose purpose is to address medical care disparities of persons of African descent. The Journal of the National Medical Association is focused on specialized clinical research activities related to the health problems of African Americans and other minority groups. Special emphasis is placed on the application of medical science to improve the healthcare of underserved populations both in the United States and abroad. The Journal has the following objectives: (1) to expand the base of original peer-reviewed literature and the quality of that research on the topic of minority health; (2) to provide greater dissemination of this research; (3) to offer appropriate and timely recognition of the significant contributions of physicians who serve these populations; and (4) to promote engagement by member and non-member physicians in the overall goals and objectives of the National Medical Association.
