    Co-Authors: Dong Wook Shin, Kui Son Choi, Dongkyung Chang, Jin Hyung Jung, Kyungdo Han, So Young Kim, Won Chul Lee, Jong Heon Park, Jong Hyock Park
    Abstract:

    Purpose Implementation of screening program may lead to increased health disparity within the population if Participation differs by socioeconomic status. In Korea, colorectal cancer screening is provided at no or minimal cost to all people over 50 by National Cancer Screening Program. We investigated colorectal cancer screening Participation Rate and its trend over the last 10 years in relation to disabilities. Materials and methods We linked national disability registration data with National Cancer Screening Program data. Age, sex-standardized Participation Rates were analyzed by type and severity of disability for each year, and factors associated with colorectal cancer screening Participation were examined by multivariate logistic regression. Results Age, sex-standardized Participation Rate in people without disability increased from 16.2 to 33.9% (change, +17.7), but it increased from 12.7% to 27.2% (change, +14.5) among people with severe disability. People with severe disabilities showed a markedly lower colorectal cancer screening Participation Rate than people without disability (adjusted odds ratio [aOR], 0.714; 95% confidence interval, 0.713 to 0.720). People with autism (aOR, 0.468), renal failure (aOR, 0.498), brain injury (aOR, 0.581), ostomy (aOR, 0.602), and intellectual disability (aOR, 0.610) showed the lowest Participation Rates. Conclusion Despite the availability of a National Cancer Screening Program and overall increase of its usage in the Korean population, a significant disparity was found in colorectal cancer screening Participation, especially in people with severe disabilities and or several specific types of disabilities. Greater effort is needed to identify the barriers faced by these particularly vulnerable groups and develop targeted interventions to reduce inequality.

  • effectiveness of interventions to increase the Participation Rate of gastric cancer screening in the republic of korea a pilot study
    Asian Pacific Journal of Cancer Prevention, 2012
    Co-Authors: Myungha Lee, Yoonyoung Lee, Dawon Jung, Boyoung Park, Ehwa Yun, Hooyeon Lee, Jaekwan Jun, Kui Son Choi
    Abstract:

    This study assessed the effectiveness of three intervention stRategies to improve the Participation Rate of gastric cancer screening among people who had never undergone such screening, and those who had been screened for the disease, but not recently. It was conducted in the Ilsandong-gu District of Goyang City, Korea. The population for the current study was restricted to male residents, aged 40-65 years, who received an invitation letter to undergo gastric cancer screening from the National Health Insurance (NHI) Corporation at the beginning of 2010. The subjects were divided into two categories according to their screening history: never-screened, and ever-screened. A total of 2,065 men were eligible: 803 never-screened and 1,262 everscreened. In each screening category they were randomly assigned to one of three intervention groups: 1) tailored telephone counseling; 2) tailored postcard reminder after tailored telephone counseling;and 3) tailored telephone counseling after tailored postcard reminder. At 3 months post-intervention, neverscreened men with any intervention were more likely to undergo gastric cancer screening (OR=2.75, 95% CI: 1.22-6.18) compared to those in the reference group (no intervention). However, there was no statistically significant intervention effect in ever-screened men (OR=1.21, 95% CI: 0.65-2.27). Examination of the intervention effects by intervention group among never-screened men showed that those in the postcard reminder after telephone counseling group to be statistically significantly more likely to undergo gastric cancer screening (OR=4.49, 95% CI: 1.79-11.29) than the reference group (no intervention). Our results highlight that use of tailored postcard reminders after tailored telephone counseling is an effective method to increase Participation in gastric cancer screening among men who had never been screened.

  • Participation Rate and related socio-demographic factors in the national cancer screening program
    Journal of preventive medicine and public health = Yebang Uihakhoe chi, 2005
    Co-Authors: Na Young Sung, Eun-cheol Park, Hai Rim Shin, Kui Son Choi
    Abstract:

    Background : Cancer is the leading cause of death and one of the largest burdens of disease in Korea. In 1996, the Ten year Plan for Cancer Control was formulated and the government then adopted the plan as a national policy. As part of this plan, the National Cancer Screening Program (NCSP) for Medicaid recipients was formulated, and the government adapted this in 1999. For low-income beneficiaries of the National Health Insurance Corporation (NHIC), the screening program has been in place since 2002. In 2002, the target cancers of NCSP were stomach, breast and cervical cancer. This study was conducted to examine the relationships between the Participation Rate, the abnormal screening Rate and the socio-demographic factors associated with Participation in the screening program. Methods : To analyze the Participation Rate and abnormal Rate for the NCSP, we used the 2002 NCSP records. The information on the socio-demographic factors was available from the database of the beneficiaries in the NHIC and Medicaid. Results : The Participation Rate of the Medicaid beneficiaries for the stomach, breast and cervical cancer screening were 9.2%, 15.5% and 15.0%, respectively, and 11.3% and 12.5%, except cervical cancer which wasn't be included in the NCSP, for the beneficiaries of the NHIC. The abnormal Rate of stomach, breast and cervical cancer screening were 25.7%, 11.2% and 21.0%, respectively, for the beneficiaries of Medicaid and 42.6% and 19.4% for the beneficiaries of the NHIC. On the multiple logistic regression analysis, gender, age and place of residence were significantly associated with Participation Rates of the NCSP. For stomach cancer, women participated in the NCSP more than men. The Participation Rate was higher among people in their fifties and sixties than for those people in their forties and those people over seventy years in age. For the breast and cervical cancer, people in their fifties were more likely to participate in the NCSP than people in their forties and people over sixty. For the place of residence, people in the rural areas participated more than those people in any other places. Conclusions : The above results show that the Participation Rate and abnormal Rate were significantly associated with the socio-demographic factors. To improve the Participation Rate for the NCSP, more attention should be given to the underserved groups.

    Co-Authors: He Zhu, Ke Tao, Jing Wang, Carissa Scurlock, Xiaofei Zhang
    Abstract:

    Background To compare the Participation Rate between CT colonography and colonoscopy in screening population among randomized controlled trials (RCTs). Methods A search was performed using the PubMed, Web of Science, and Cochrane databases. Studies including unselected screening populations reporting Participation Rates were limited to randomized controlled trials published in English. The quality of the included articles was ranked in accordance with the Jadad composite scale. Stata 12.0 was used to analyze the data. Risk ratios (RR) were used to compare trials and assess the value of the screening method used. The Higgins I2 statistic was used to determine the total variation across studies due to heterogeneity. If the I2 statistic was ≤50%, the findings among the studies were considered homogeneous, and the fixed effects model was used to pool studies; otherwise, the random-effects model was used. Results Six of 760 studies were included in this meta-analysis (figure 1). There were 17958 invitees in total. Participation Rates were 29.0% (2716/9378) for CT colonography and 21.5% (1841/8580) for colonoscopy, and the difference was statistically significant (RR=1.241; 95% CI:1.001 to 1.538; P=0.049; I2=90.4%, (figure 1)). We excluded one study used flexible sigmoidoscopy (FS), but the Participation Rate was not with statistically significantly different between the two groups (pooled RR=1.266; 95% CI:0.988 to 1.623; P=0.063; I2=89.8%, (figure 3)). However, when the two low-quality studies which also were community-based studies excluded again in these six studies, we found that the Participation Rate in the CT colonography group was significantly higher than that in the colonoscopy group (pooled RR=1.327; 95% CI:1.034 to 1.702; P=0.026; I2=93.4%). Conclusions The Participation Rate in colorectal cancer screening with CT colonography was significantly higher than with colonoscopy. This Rate also has a trend over time and sample size. In the future, more large-sample RCTs are needed to confirm the reliability of this study.

  • Relationships between set-out Rate, Participation Rate and set-out quantity in recycling programs
    Resources Conservation and Recycling, 1997
    Co-Authors: F. S. Wang, A. J. Richardson, Felicity A. Roddick
    Abstract:

    The most often used indicators for Participation in recycling programs are the set-out Rate, the Participation Rate and the quantity of recyclables per recycler. The Participation Rate, measured from the set-out Rate over a period of time, is often used to estimate the amount of recyclables to be collected. However, the behavioural mechanisms that underlie the set-out Rate, and hence the Participation Rate and the estimation of amount of recyclables collected, are largely unknown. This paper briefly evaluates the factors contributing to public Participation in recycling programs and discusses the factors influencing set-out Rate and set-out frequency. The effective Participation Rate is introduced as the ratio of the amount of recyclables collected to the amount of recyclables geneRated. The relationships between the set-out Rate, the Participation Rate as measured over a period time, and the amount of recyclables collected as measured through the effective Participation Rate, are simulated on the basis of two hypotheses for behavioural mechanisms. The simulation shows that a meaningful period for determining the effective Participation Rate largely depends on the relative storage capacity. The larger the storage capacity compared with the generation of recyclables, the longer the period that should be used to estimate the effective Participation Rate to predict more accuRately the amount of recyclables collected. This paper provides a basis for further research by offering some insight into Participation behavioural mechanisms.

  • Participation Rate and its influencing factors of a model demonstration cervical screening programme in rural China
    Journal of Cancer Policy, 2019
    Co-Authors: Jun Zhao, Lin Yang, Hutcha Sriplung, Huailan Guo, Wenjie Zeng, Xiaohui Gong
    Abstract:

    Abstract Objectives To assess the Participation Rate of the cervical cancer screening programme during the first six years of operation and to explore practical factors that affect the Participation Rate in a screening demonstration programme in rural China. Methods A descriptive analysis was conducted to evaluate the Participation Rate of organised cervical cancer screening programme in Zhushan county from 2009 through 2014. Screening data were linked to the population data and the climate data to explore the effect of them on the Participation Rate in the screening programme. Results Of the 73,847 Pap tests from 59 events of mobile cervical cancer screening performed from 2009 to 2014, 93.6% of the screened women were in the target age groups (25–64 years). The screening Participation Rates by township were between 10% and 30% in each 2-year screening round. About half of eligible women underwent at least once Pap test over the six-year period. The recall Rates for the second and third period were 11.3% and 17.2%, respectively. The Participation Rates were low when the uptakes of screening were in winter or summer seasons. Conclusion Our results indicate that the 2-year screening programme announced by the government cannot be achieved. The effort of the screening team in finding unscreened women by throughout the area could raise the Participation Rate reaching 49.5% within 6 years. Our study also revealed an association between the extreme temperatures at screening undertaken and the low Participation Rates. In planning cervical screening activities in an area should consider such the environmental factors.

  • The Third French Individual and National Food Consumption (INCA3) Survey 2014–2015: method, design and Participation Rate in the framework of a European harmonization process
    Public Health Nutrition, 2019
    Co-Authors: Carine Dubuisson, Ariane Dufour, Sandrine Carrillo, Peggy Drouillet-pinard, Sabrina Havard, Jean-luc Volatier
    Abstract:

    Objective: Assessing dietary exposure or nutrient intakes requires detailed dietary data. These data are collected in France by the cross-sectional Individual andNational Studies on Food Consumption (INCA). In 2014–2015, the third survey(INCA3) was launched in the framework of the European harmonization process which introduced major methodological changes. The present paper describes the design of the INCA3 survey, its Participation Rate and the quality of its dietary data,and discusses the lessons learned from the methodological adaptations. Design: Two representative samples of adults (18–79 years old) and children (0–17 years old) living in mainland France were selected following a three-stage stratified random sampling method using the national census database. Setting: Food consumption was collected through three non-consecutive 24 h recalls (15–79 years old) or records (0–14 years old), supplemented by an FFQ. Information on food supplement use, eating habits, physical activity and sedentary behaviours, health status and sociodemographic characteristics were gathered by questionnaires. Height and body weight were measured. Participants: In total, 4114 individuals (2121 adults, 1993 children) completed the whole protocol. Results: Participation Rate was 41·5 % for adults and 49·8 % for children. Mean energy intake was estimated as 8795 kJ/d (2102 kcal/d) in adults and 7222 kJ/d (1726 kcal/d) in children and the Rate of energy intake under-reporters was 17·8 and 13·9 %, respectively. Conclusions: Following the European guidelines, the INCA3 survey collected detailed dietary data useful for food-related and nutritional risk assessments at national and European level. The impact of the methodological changes on the Participation Rate should be further studied.
