metastatic breast cancer Collateral Damage project mbccd scale development and preliminary results of the survey of health impact needs and experiences shine
Breast Cancer Research and Treatment, 2018Co-Authors: Timothy J Williamson, Susan M Love, Jessica Dehart, Alexandra Jorgemiller, Leah Eshraghi, Heather Cooper Ortner, Annette L StantonAbstract:Until recently, people with metastatic breast cancer (MBC) had a very poor prognosis. New treatment approaches have prolonged the time that people with MBC live, but their quality of life has received less attention. Consequently, the needs and concerns across financial, vocational, psychological, social, and physical domains in MBC patients are poorly understood—particularly regarding the Collateral Damage or longer-term, life-altering impacts of MBC and its treatments. This study’s aims were to characterize MBC-related Collateral Damage, identify groups most likely to experience Collateral Damage, and examine its associations with psychological health, illness management, and health behaviors. Participants (N = 515) with MBC were recruited from Dr. Susan Love Research Foundation’s Army of Women® and other advocacy organizations. Participants completed questionnaires of MBC-related Collateral Damage, depressive symptoms, anxiety, self-efficacy for managing oncologic treatments and physical symptoms, sleep, and physical activity. Eight domains of MBC-related Collateral Damage, as well as MBC-related benefit finding, were reliably characterized. Concerns about mortality/uncertainty were most prominent. Participants also endorsed high levels of benefit finding. Participants younger than 50 years, with limited financial resources, or with children under 18 at home reported the most Collateral Damage. Collateral Damage was associated significantly with compromised psychological health, lower illness management efficacy, and poorer health behaviors, beyond sociodemographic and medical characteristics. Subgroups of MBC patients report long-term, life-altering consequences of MBC and its treatments, which relate to important health outcomes. Clinical implications and recommendations are discussed.

Collateral Damage refinancing constraints and regional recessions
Journal of Money Credit and Banking, 1997Co-Authors: Andrew Caplin, Charles Freeman, Joseph TracyAbstract:In the current structure of the U.S. residential mortgage market, a decrease in property values may make it very difficult for homeowners to refinance their mortgages to take advantage of declining interest rates. In this papr, we show that this form of Collateral constraint has greatly reduced refinancing in statds with depressed property markets. We outline the interaction between regional recessions and refinancing constraints. WHEN ADVERSE ECONOMIC SHOCKS cause property values in a region to decrease, the Damage to the Collateral makes it difficult or impossible for some homeowners to obtain new mortgages. In the recent period, this has meant that homeowners in economically depressed regions have been unable to refinance their mortgages to take advantage of declining interest rates. This inability to refinance has further economic impacts on the region through lowering the wealth and the discretionary income of local homeowners, thereby deepening the regional recession. While the possible link between regional declines in property values and refinancing activity has been understood for some time (for example, Monsen 1992), the subject has received very little empirical attention. We provide the first quantitative assessment of the impact of constraints arising from regional property market dynamics on refinancing activity. To accomplish this, we use a new data set on more than thirty-five thousand individual mortgages. The sample consists of all mortgages serviced by Chemical Bank with originations between June 1989 and May 1992.

mexico s northern border conflict Collateral Damage to health and human rights of vulnerable groups
Revista Panamericana De Salud Publica-pan American Journal of Public Health, 2012Co-Authors: Leo Beletsky, Tommi L Gaines, Lucie Nguyen, Remedios Lozada, Gudelia Rangel, Alicia Vera, Heather L Mccauley, Andrea Sorensen, Gustavo J Martinez, Steffanie A StrathdeeAbstract:OBJECTIVE: To compare distributions of human rights violations and disease risk; to juxtapose these patterns against demographic and structural environmental variables, and to formulate implications for structural interventions. METHODS: Female sex workers who inject drugs were surveyed in Tijuana and Ciudad Juarez, Mexico. Structured interviews and testing for sexually transmitted infections (STIs) were conducted (October 2008 to October 2009). Frequencies of individual and environmental factors, including police abuse, risk of HIV infection, and protective behaviors, were compared between sites using univariate logistic regression. RESULTS: Of 624 women, almost half reported police syringe confiscation despite syringes being legal; 55.6% reported extortion (past 6 months), with significantly higher proportions in Ciudad Juarez (P < 0.001). Reports of recent solicitation of sexual favors (28.5% in Tijuana, 36.5% in Ciudad Juarez, P = 0.04) and sexual abuse (15.7% in Tijuana, 18.3% in Ciudad Juarez) by police were commonplace. Prevalence of STIs was significantly lower in Tijuana than in Ciudad Juarez (64.2% and 83.4%, P < 0.001), paralleling the lower prevalence of sexual risk behaviors there. Ciudad Juarez respondents reported significantly higher median number of monthly clients (6.8 versus 1.5, P < 0.001) and lower median pay per sex act (US$ 10 versus US$ 20, P < 0.001) (in the past month). Relative to Tijuana, security deployment, especially the army's presence, was perceived to have increased more in Ciudad Juarez in the past year (72.1% versus 59.2%, P = 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: Collateral Damage from police practices in the context of Mexico's drug conflict may affect public health in the Northern Border Region. Itinerant officers may facilitate disease spread beyond the region. The urgency for mounting structural interventions is discussed.

mexico s northern border conflict Collateral Damage to health and human rights of vulnerable groups
Social Science Research Network, 2012Co-Authors: Leo Beletsky, Tommi L Gaines, Lucie Nguyen, Remedios Lozada, Gudelia Rangel, Alicia Vera, Heather L Mccauley, Andrea SorensenAbstract:Objectives: Given links between policing environment and infectious disease risk among vulnerable groups, we surveyed female sex workers who inject drugs in Tijuana and Ciudad (Cd.) Juarez. Data were used to 1. compare distributions of human rights violations and disease risk, 2. juxtapose these patterns against demographic and structural environment variables, and 3. formulate implications for structural interventions. Methods: Structured interviews and testing for sexually-transmitted infections (STIs) were conducted (October 2008-October 2009). Frequency of individual and environmental factors, including police abuse, HIV risk and protective behaviors were compared between sites using univariate logistic regression. Results: Of 624 women, almost half reported police syringe confiscation despite syringes being legal and 55.6% reported extortion (last 6 months), with significantly-higher proportions in Cd. Juarez (p Conclusions: Collateral Damage from police practices in the context of Mexico’s drug conflict may impact public health in the Northern Border Region. Itinerant officers may facilitate disease spread beyond the Region. The urgency for mounting structural interventions is discussed.
