Factors affecting uptake of cervical cancer screening among Chinese women in New Zealand
2008, International Journal of Gynecology and ObstetricsCitation Excerpt :These findings are in line with other studies on the Chinese emigrant population [5,7]. A strong association between physicians' recommendations and women's use of cancer screening tests has been documented in diverse populations [15–17], demonstrating the importance of primary care relationships and engagement. Although age and years lived in New Zealand were found to be associated with cervical screening practice in the model that only considered sociodemographic factors [11], the effects of these two factors diminished and were no longer statistically significant after introducing other important factors.
Lower adherence to screening mammography guidelines among ethnic minority women in America: A meta-analytic review
2008, Preventive MedicineCitation Excerpt :Authors of four studies responded and provided the necessary information. Fourteen studies were excluded for the following three reasons: (a) sample sizes for ethnic/racial groups were not reported (Caplan et al., 1992; Casey et al., 2001; Friedman et al., 1995; Goel et al., 2003; Lane et al., 2000; O'Malley et al., 1997; Regan et al., 1999; Stoddard et al., 1998; Yood et al., 1999); (b) data on the white non-Hispanic comparison group were not reported (Wampler et al., 2006); and (c) combined screening and diagnostic mammograms (Henderson and Schenck, 2001; Parker et al., 1998; Preston et al., 1997; Sabogal et al., 2001). The 33 studies identified compared white non-Hispanic women to African American women, Hispanic women, and Asian/Pacific Islander women.
