The impact of ageism in the care of older adults with cancer.
Purpose of review: This review summarizes recent research on the impact of ageism in older adults with cancer and how society can best address the issue. Despite older individuals representing the vast majority of those with cancer, with a dramatic increase in incidence anticipated in the coming decades, ageism remains an under-recognized and extremely detrimental phenomenon in cancer care.
Recent findings: We examine the associations between ageism and health, and highlight the consequences of higher mortality, a deterioration in mental and physical health, worse functional status and increased comorbidity burden. We then discuss the oncologic-specific impacts of ageism, including lower rates of cancer screening, decreased histological confirmation of cancer, decreased surgical intervention and systemic therapy prescription and poorer survivorship experience. To conclude, we illustrate the opportunities within oncologic systems of care to engage with, and dismantle, the damaging effects of ageism, namely policy and legislation, education and intergenerational contact.
Summary: Despite recognition of the numerous negative sequelae of ageism, there remains a paucity of literature regarding the intersection between ageism and cancer. Our piece summarizes the key developments in this field, but further evaluation is desperately required.
期刊介绍：
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
