No nationwide studies on social position and prevalence of comorbidity among cancer survivors exist.
We performed a nationwide prevalence study defining persons diagnosed with cancer 1943-2010 and alive on the census date 1 January 2011 as cancer survivors. Comorbidity was compared by social position with the non-cancer population.
Cancer survivors composed 4% of the Danish population. Somatic comorbidity was more likely among survivors (OR 1.59, 95% CI 1.57-1.60) and associated with higher age, male sex, short education, and living alone among survivors.
Among cancer survivors, comorbidity is common and highly associated with social position.
目前尚无关于癌症幸存者社会地位与合并症患病率的全国性研究。
我们开展了一项全国性患病率研究,将1943年至2010年被诊断患有癌症且在2011年1月1日人口普查日仍在世的人定义为癌症幸存者。通过社会地位将合并症与非癌症人群进行比较。
癌症幸存者占丹麦人口的4%。幸存者中躯体合并症更为常见(比值比1.59,95%置信区间1.57 - 1.60),且与幸存者年龄较大、男性、受教育时间短以及独居有关。
在癌症幸存者中,合并症很常见且与社会地位高度相关。
