Participación informada en el Programa de Prevención del Cáncer Colorrectal de la Comunidad Valenciana desde una perspectiva de género
Abstract Objective: To examine the factors that influence informed participation in a Colorectal Cancer Screening Programme (CRCSP) from a gender perspective. Methods: Cross-sectional telephone survey directed to men and women invited to participate (2009-2010) in the Valencian Community CRCSP (Spain). Sample size: 785 subjects. Outcome variables: participation in CRCSP and being informed. Bivariate and multivariate analysis using logistic regression models (95% confidence interval [95%CI], p <0.05). Results: Being a woman (odds ratio [OR]: 1.52; 95%CI: 1.06-2.19), receiving information from a general practitioner (OR: 1.64; 95%CI: 1.05-2.55) and being informed (OR: 1.54; 95%CI: 1.08-2.21) …

Occupational Heat Exposure and Breast Cancer Risk in the MCC-Spain Study.
Background: Mechanisms linking occupational heat exposure with chronic diseases have been proposed. However, evidence on occupational heat exposure and cancer risk is limited. Methods: We evaluated occupational heat exposure and female breast cancer risk in a large Spanish case-control study. We enrolled 1,738 breast cancer cases and 1,910 frequency-matched population controls. A Spanish job exposure matrix, MatEmEsp, was used to assign estimates of the proportion of workers exposed (P greater than or equal to 25% for at least one year) and work time with heat stress (wet bulb globe temperature ISO 7243) for each occupation. We used three exposure indices: ever vs. never exposed, lifetime c…
Inequalities in the participation and outcomes of breast cancer screening programs in Valencia, Spain
Abstract Background Breast cancer remains the most frequent tumour and first cancer related cause of death in the Valencian Community. Despite most of the population being aware of the existence of breast cancer screening programs (BCSP), there are great differences in uptake that are likely attributed to social determinants. The objective of this study, alligning with SDGs 3 and 10, is to assess inequalities in breast cancer screening uptake, diagnosis and treatment delay in the city of Valencia. Methods The population of study included 128 123 women invited to participate in the BCSP in the city of Valencia between 2014 and 2016. Uptake, diagnosis and treatment delay were assessed as outc…
Calidad de la atención al paciente oncológico: Tiempos asistenciales recomendables entre sospecha clínica y definición del plan terapéutico en cáncer de mama y colorrectal
Fundamento. Determinar tiempos recomendables para el tratamiento desde la sospecha clínica fundada en los procesos asistenciales de cáncer de mama y colorrectal considerando factibilidad y situación personal del paciente. Método. Estudio cualitativo de búsqueda de consenso entre profesionales. Primero, se revisaron mediante 4 sesiones grupales (N=19), los procesos asistenciales de cáncer de mama y cáncer colorrectal y se fijaron los tiempos deseables de ambos procesos. Segundo, mediante una modificación de la técnica Delphi (N=49), se validó la propuesta de tiempos de atención recomendables para cada proceso asistencial. Resultados. La tasa de respuesta en el estudio Delphi fue del 69% en e…
