BACKGROUND: Studies have identified associations between neighborhood disadvantage (ND), which is more likely to affect African American (AA) individuals, and aggressive prostate cancer. Thus, ND may contribute to prostate cancer disparities. However, it is unknown what ND components drive aggressive disease and whether associations vary by race. METHODS: We evaluated associations between aggressive prostate cancer and four ND metrics-Area Deprivation Index (ADI), validated Bayesian Neighborhood Deprivation Index (NDI), racial isolation (RI) index, and historical redlining, and whether these factors interacted with race, among men with prostate cancer treated at the University of Maryland Greenebaum Comprehensive Cancer Center (2004-2021). RESULTS: We included 1,458 men (698 European American and 760 AA). AA men were more likely to experience ND. In adjusted models, the ADI, RI, and redlining were significantly associated with aggressive versus nonaggressive prostate cancer overall [ADI, OR for one SD increase = 1.14, 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.00-1.30; RI, OR = 1.27, CI, 1.07-1.51; redlining, OR = 1.77; CI, 1.23-2.56] and among AA men. The NDI was associated with aggressive prostate cancer among AA men (OR = 1.32, 95% credible interval: 1.13-1.57); percent in poverty received the largest importance weight. The ADI (P heterogeneity = 0.002) and NDI (exceedance probability heterogeneity = 98.1%) significantly interacted with race, such that associations were significantly stronger for AA men. CONCLUSIONS: We identified novel significant positive associations for racial segregation and historical redlining with aggressive prostate cancer and significant interactions between ND indices and race. IMPACT: Findings inform specific ND components that are associated with aggressive prostate cancer and suggest the ND effect is stronger for AA men, which has implications for interventions to reduce disparities.
背景:研究已经确定了邻里贫困(ND)与侵袭性前列腺癌之间的关联,而 ND 更可能影响非裔美国人(AA)。因此,ND 可能导致前列腺癌的差异。然而,尚不清楚 ND 的哪些组成部分会导致侵袭性疾病,以及这些关联是否因种族而异。
方法:我们评估了四项 ND 指标(区域剥夺指数[ADI]、验证后的贝叶斯邻里剥夺指数[NDI]、种族隔离[RI]指数和历史上的红线)与在马里兰大学格林伯格综合癌症中心接受治疗的前列腺癌男性(2004-2021 年)的侵袭性前列腺癌之间的关联,以及这些因素是否与种族相互作用。
结果:我们纳入了 1458 名男性(698 名欧洲裔美国人和 760 名非裔美国人)。AA 男性更有可能经历 ND。在调整后的模型中,ADI、RI 和红线与侵袭性与非侵袭性前列腺癌总体相关[ADI,每增加一个 SD 的比值比(OR)=1.14,95%置信区间(CI)为 1.00-1.30;RI,OR=1.27,CI 为 1.07-1.51;红线,OR=1.77;CI 为 1.23-2.56],并且在 AA 男性中也存在这种相关性。NDI 与 AA 男性的侵袭性前列腺癌相关(OR=1.32,95%可信区间:1.13-1.57);贫困百分比的重要性权重最大。ADI(P 异质性=0.002)和 NDI(超出概率异质性=98.1%)与种族显著相互作用,使得 AA 男性的关联明显更强。
结论:我们发现了种族隔离和历史红线与侵袭性前列腺癌之间存在新的显著正相关关系,以及 ND 指数与种族之间存在显著的相互作用。
影响:研究结果为与侵袭性前列腺癌相关的特定 ND 成分提供了信息,并表明 ND 对 AA 男性的影响更大,这对减少差异的干预措施具有重要意义。
