Cacer is a group of diseases characterized by ucotrolled growth ad spread of abormal cells. Cacer is caused by both exteral factors (tobacco, poor diet, physical iactivity, chemicals, radiatio ad ifectious orgaisms) ad iteral factors (iherited mutatios, hormoes, immue coditios ad mutatios that occur from metabolism). These causal factors may act together or i sequece to iitiate or promote carciogeesis. Ayoe ca develop cacer. The risk of beig diagosed with cacer icreases with icreasig age; about 77% of all cacers are diagosed i persos 55 ad older.

Treds i Cacer Icidece ad Mortality I 1996, the America Cacer Society Board of Directors set a ambitious challege goal of a 50% reductio i age-adjusted cacer mortality rates by the year 2015. As a measure of our progress towards the 2015 goal, U.S. cacer mortality rates have decreased 14.6% sice 1990. I 1998, the Board of Directors set a parallel challege goal for a 25% reductio i age-adjusted cacer icidece rates by 2015. As of 2005, the cacer icidece for the U.S., based o SEER data, has decreased 5.4% sice 1990.

Cacer Amog Hispaics ad Latios Itroductio The Hispaic/Latio populatio is ofte described as a mosaic of cultures. Moreover, the diversity exteds to atioality, customs, heritage, lifestyles ad socioecoomic status. The Hispaic heritage ca be traced back to Spai. Latio/a refers to persos livig i Spaish-speakig Lati America ad their heritage ca be traced back to the Lati laguage. The terms Hispaic ad Latio/a are used iterchageably i this report. The Hispaic/Latio populatio comprises early 15% of the U.S. populatio ad is the fastest growig racial/ethic group. As of 2007, a estimated 2,400,500 Hispaic/Latios reside i This report icludes the followig sectios: Health profile amog Hispaic adults Health profile amog Hispaic youth Cacer screeig patters Cacer icidece & mortality amog Hispaics Stage at diagosis ad survival Access to care Programs to promote healthy behaviors amog Hispaics Limitatios Table 1.

Withi the Divisio, the District of Columbia raks highest i the proportio of Hispaic residets (8.7%), followed by Georgia at 7.5%, ad West Virgiia has the smallest proportio at 0.9%. (Table 1) Official cesus couts of the Hispaic/Latio populatio, however, are believed to be uderrepreseted due to idividual idetity preferece (black/white versus Hispaic/Latio) as well as legal status cocers of the commuity ad recet chages i immigratio patters. Overall, six out of te Hispaic/Latio residets i the SAD have reported to be from Mexico, Puerto Rico or Cuba. 8 I North Carolia, Georgia ad South Carolia, Mexicas comprise the majority of Hispaic residets, with 66.6%, 65.4% ad 63.0%, respectively. Delaware has the largest proportio of Latios of Puerto Rica descet (27.3%) ad District of Columbia has the highest proportio from Cuba (4.9%). Persos from other Hispaic/Latio coutry are most commo i the District of Columbia (76.5%), Marylad (67.6%) ad Virgiia (61.3%). (Table 2) Additioal data reveal that the District of Columbia, with more tha three-quarters of its populatio i the other Hispaic/ Latio category, is home to the largest Bolivia populatio i the U.S., the secod largest cocetratio of Salvadoras ad sigificat populatios from Peru, Colombia, Mexico, Guatemala, Hoduras, Ecuador ad Nicaragua. The District also icludes embassies ad cosulates from may Lati America coutries. Health Profile amog Hispaic Adults Experts believe that if curret kowledge about cacer prevetio ad early detectio were applied, at least half of all cacer deaths could be preveted. The America Cacer Society estimates that i 2008, about 10,000 cacer deaths will be attributed to tobacco use aloe. I additio, approximately oe-third (188,550) of the 565,650 cacer deaths expected i 2008 are attributable to poor utritio, overweight/obesity ad lack of physical activity.

A exceptio is oted i South Carolia, where the cigarette smokig rate amog Hispaics (24.8%) is higher tha amog o-hispaic whites (22.0%) ad the same as o-hispaic blacks (24.7%). (Table 3) Smokig rates amog Hispaic me are about 25% lower tha i o-hispaic white me, ad Hispaic wome are about half as likely to smoke as o-hispaic white wome. 6 Cigarette smokig rates amog Hispaics bor i the U.S. are higher tha amog those bor elsewhere. 2 Tobacco Use: The Natioal Latio Coucil o Alcohol ad Tobacco Prevetio, more commoly kow as LCAT, is a oprofit 501(c)(3) atioal orgaizatio established i 1989 i order to combat alcohol ad tobacco problems ad their uderlyig causes i Latio commuities (www.lcatp.org). As the oly Latio atioal orgaizatio dedicated solely to reducig the harm caused by alcohol ad tobacco i the Latio commuity, their work is coducted through research, advocacy, policy aalysis, commuity educatio, traiig ad iformatio dissemiatio. Results of their research show that: Puerto Ricas are more likely tha other Latios to be curret smokers. For Latias, there is a positive relatioship betwee level of acculturatio ad smokig. I 2005, 22 percet of Hispaic high school studets smoked, a 19 percet icrease over the 2003 smokig rate of 18.4 percet. I 2004, 9.4 percet of Hispaic middle school studets smoked. Puerto Rica wome are early twice as likely to smoke as wome of other Hispaic groups. Lug cacer is the leadig cause of cacer deaths amog Latios livig i the Uited States. The Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillace System survey (BRFSS) is a aual survey of the Ceters for Disease Cotrol ad Prevetio (CDC) ad the U.S. states ad territories. 6 Although the state-specific data o risk behaviors amog Hispaics are Poor utritio, lack of physical activity ad beig obese or overweight are major cacer risk factors, secod oly to tobacco use. Approximately oe-third, or 188,550 of the 565,650 cacer deaths i 2008 will have bee associated with these three risk factors. This statistic would mea that 7,772 of the 23,320 U.S. cacer deaths expected amog Hispaics i 2006 could have bee preveted through a healthy diet, regular physical activity ad weight cotrol. Nutritio ad Physical Activity: The ACS Recommedatios for Nutritio ad Physical Activity, updated i 2006, highlight the importace of havig a healthy weight ad physical activity i the prevetio of cacer. 5 The recommedatios iclude the followig: Maitai a healthy weight throughout life. Balace calorie itake with physical activity. Avoid excessive weight gai throughout life. Achieve ad maitai a healthy weight if curretly overweight or obese. Adopt a physically active lifestyle. Adults: Egage i at least 30 miutes of moderate to vigorous physical activity, above usual activities, o 5 or more days of the week; 45 to 60 miutes of itetioal physical activity are preferable. Childre ad adolescets: Egage i at least 60 miutes per day of moderate to vigorous physical activity at least 5 days per week. Fruits ad Vegetables: Eatig five or more servigs of a variety of vegetables ad fruits every day is a recommedatio i the America Cacer Society s Nutritio Guidelies, updated i 2006. 5 Ufortuately, BRFSS estimates show that more tha Cotiued Table 3.

three-quarters of adult Americas DO NOT meet the ACS recommedatio for miimum fruit ad vegetable cosumptio. I the SAD, cosumptio is lowest amog Hispaics (80.9%), followed by NH blacks (77.9%) ad NH whites (75.7%). (Table 4) Physical Activity: Research idicates that regular physical activity ca prevet cacer by helpig reduce overweight ad obesity. Achievig ad/or maitaiig a ideal weight ca help decrease the risk of cacers of the colo/rectum, breast (premeopausal), uterus ad prostate. Regular physical activity is also beeficial i the prevetio of chroic diseases, particularly diabetes ad heart disease. The BRFSS questio do you have at 30+ miutes of moderate physical activity five or more days per week, or vigorous physical activity for 20+ miutes three or more days per week? is the measure of adult physical activity that most closely resembles the ACS guidelie listed above. The South Atlatic Divisio overall has a higher prevalece tha the U.S. of persos that DO NOT have regular physical activity i each of the race/ethicity groups show i Table 5. The rate of physical iactivity amog Hispaics i the SAD is 18% higher tha the U.S. Hispaic rate, but data are oly available for the District of Columbia, Marylad ad North Carolia. I North Carolia ad South Carolia, prevalece of physical iactivity is higher tha the U.S. amog both white ad black o-hispaics. Obesity/Overweight: Beig overweight or obese is associated with icreased risk of cacers of the breast, prostate, colo/ rectum ad uterus, i additio to other chroic diseases such as diabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease ad premature death. A commo measure to establish whether a perso is u- derweight, ormal weight, overweight or obese is the Body Mass Idex (BMI) which is determied by the perso s height ad weight. Obese is havig a BMI of 30 or higher ad overweight is defied as havig a BMI of 25 to less tha 30. Obesity has bee icreasig i the U.S. i both Hispaics ad o-hispaics. Data from the BRFSS survey, where overweight ad obese are classified based o the idividual s self-reported height ad weight, show that i the U.S. early 67 percet of Hispaic residets were overweight or obese compared with 62.6% of o-hispaic whites. No-Hispaic blacks, however, had a obesity/overweight prevalece of 72.6%. Data from other surveys suggest that the rate of obesity is higher amog Puerto Ricas ad Mexicas tha i other Hispaic subgroups. 2 I the South Atlatic Divisio, the prevalece of overweight/ obesity amog o-hispaics is similar to the U.S. rate. A exceptio is the District of Columbia, where the prevalece of overweight/obesity for NH whites at 39.3% is 37% lower tha the U.S. rate for that race/ethic group. Although data for Hispaics are oly available for 2 states ad the District of Columbia, the SA combied rate (58.9%) is lower tha the U.S ad lower tha NH whites ad NH blacks i the SA Divisio; 62.0% ad 72.6%, respectively.

Cigarette Smokig: Data from the YRBSS 2007 show that the prevalece of cigarette smokig amog white NH youth (23.8% male ad 22.5% female) is still higher tha amog Hispaic youth (18.7% male ad 14.6% female). (Table 7) Amog black o-hispaic studets, 14.9% of male ad 8.4% of female studets reported curret cigarette use (at least oe cigarette per day over the past 30 days). Although Hispaic youth i the U.S. ted to smoke less tha NH youth, these patters may chage as marketig efforts icrease i Lati America coutries, particularly amog wome, ad also target Hispaic wome ad youth i the Uited States. 2 Smokeless Tobacco Use: Smokeless tobacco products, icludig chewig tobacco ad suff, are ot safe substitutes for cigarette smokig. These products ca cause oral ad pacreatic cacers, ocacerous oral coditios ad ca lead to icotie addictio. The tobacco idustry cotiues to market ew ad existig products as supplemetal sources of icotie i smoke-free settigs ad misleadigly markets these products as a low-risk optio for smokers who are uable to quit. I Table 7 are usage rates for smokeless tobacco products amog high school studets. Amog Latios, 6.7% of male ad 2.7% of female studets used smokeless tobacco products. The highest prevalece rate was 18.0% of white NH youth usig smokeless tobacco products ad the lowest rate was 0.5% amog black o-latias. I each race/ethicity category i Table 7, male studets are more likely tha female studets to be users of smokeless tobacco products, Fruits ad Vegetables: ACS recommedatios o fruit ad vegetable cosumptio for childre/youth parallel those for adults. Amog male studets, the prevalece of ot eatig 5 or more fruits ad vegetables was highest amog white NH (72.2%) tha Hispaic (76.0%) ad black NH (75.1%). I each race/ethicity category, female studets ate more fruits ad vegetables daily tha male studets, although the differece was oly about two percetage poits i each category. (Table 7) Physical Activity: The recommeded physical activity for childre ad adolescets is to egage i at least 60 miutes per day of moderate to vigorous physical activity at least 5 days per week. I each race/ethicity category, the prevalece of studets who DO NOT meet the recommeded physical activity level is higher amog female tha male studets. Amog male studets, 18.8% of Hispaics did ot meet the physical activity requiremets; black o-hispaics had the highest rate (21.8%) ad white o-hispaics the lowest rate at 16.7%. A similar patter is see amog female studets. (Table 7) Overweight/Obesity: Sice 1990, the prevalece of overweight childre has icreased sharply i childre of all racial ad ethic groups i the U.S. Overweight childre ofte become overweight adults, with icreased risks of poor health outcomes such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol ad diabetes. 3 I Table 7 are prevalece rates for overweight/obese by geder ad ethicity/race category. As i adults, the weight category for childre is determied by the Body Mass Idex (BMI), but the formulas for the childhood BMI vary by age. Amog male youth, the rate of beig overweight/obese is highest amog Hispaic high school studets (38.6%), followed by o-hispaic black (35.5%) ad NH white (30.3%) high school studets. Amog female high school studets, o-latia blacks have the highest rate of overweight (39.2%), followed by Latias (30.6%) ad o-latia white high school studets (19.6%).

Those that are at icreased risk for certai cacers should cosult their physicia as they may eed to follow a differet screeig schedule, such as startig at a earlier age or beig screeed more ofte. Also, persos with symptoms that could be related to cacer should see their doctor right away. 4 Breast Cacer Screeig: The ACS guidelies state that yearly mammograms are recommeded startig at age 40 ad cotiuig for as log as a woma is i good health. 2 A mammogram is a low-dose X-ray procedure that ca detect breast cacer at a early stage whe treatmet would be more effective. I 2006 i the South Atlatic Divisio, Latias have a lower rate of mammography screeig (60.7%) tha o-latia whites (62.8%) ad o-latia blacks (63.8%). (Table 8) Additioal survey data from 2003 show that wome from Cetral ad South America, ad Cuba have higher mammography screeig rates tha Mexica wome. 2 U.S. data show a screeig patter that is similar to the SAD, but the U.S. screeig rate i each race/ethicity group is 1-2 percetage poits lower tha see i the SAD. Although the mammography screeig rates amog Latias have improved cosiderably durig the past 20 years ad are approachig those of o-latias, breast cacers diagosed amog Latias are, o average, diagosed at a more advaced stage tha those diagosed amog o-latias. 2 Prostate Cacer Screeig: The ACS suggests screeig for prostate cacer by a combiatio of the prostate-specific atige (PSA) test ad digital rectal exam (DRE) at ages ad time itervals that are depedet upo each ma s race, age ad kow risk factors. 5 The BRFSS questioaire asks me ages 40 ad older if they have had a PSA (prostate-specific atige) test withi the past two years. I the U.S., Hispaic me have the lowest PSA screeig rate (43.0%), followed by NH black me (48.1%) ad NI white me (55.6%). No-Hispaic me i the SA Divisio follow the same patter as U.S. me. I fact, PSA screeig rates are lower for black NH me tha white NH me i each state i the South Atlatic Divisio, most otably i Delaware ad South Carolia.

Although the ew guidelies recommed a flexible sigmoidoscopy every 5 years or a colooscopy every 10 years, the BRFSS questio ca still be used to approximate regioal as well as sex- ad race/ ethicity-specific screeig patters across the SAD. The rate of screeig by edoscopy amog South Atlatic Divisio residets ages 50+ is higher tha that see for the U.S. i each race/ethicity category.

rates at 62.7% ad 61.7%, respectively. No-Hispaic blacks have the highest screeig rates i Delaware ad Virgiia (both at 59.3%). The BRFSS survey also asks adults ages 50+ if they have had a blood stool test withi the past two years. (Table 11) The blood stool test, ofte referred to as the Fecal Occult Blood Test or FOBT, is also oe of the tests recommeded i the ACS guidelies. Hispaics have the lowest frequecy of FOBT screeig of the race/ethic groups i the U.S. (11.3%) ad i the SAD (10.9%). The FOBT rate amog NH blacks is higher tha or equal to the rate for NH whites i each South Atlatic state. Cervical Cacer Screeig: The ACS suggests screeig for cervical cacer by Pap tests at time itervals that are depedet upo the woma s age, risk factors ad sexual history. 5 The BRFSS questioaire measures cervical cacer screeig by the questio have you had a Pap test withi the past 2 years? for wome ages 18 ad older. Although Latias have bee less likely to participate i cervical cacer screeig, their rates have improved i recet decades. Amog Latias, cervical cacer screeig rates are lowest amog Mexica wome ad amog uisured wome. 2 Latias have the lowest cervical cacer screeig rates i the South Atlatic Divisio (82.8%) as well as the U.S. (82.0%). I Delaware, however, the rate for Latias is higher tha that for o-latias, but the opposite is true (higher amog o-latias tha Latias) i the District of Columbia, Georgia, Marylad ad North Carolia. (Table 12) Cacer Icidece ad Mortality amog Hispaics About 39,940 ew cacer cases i Hispaic me ad 42,140 cases i Hispaic wome were expected to be diagosed i the U.S. i 2006. The most commoly diagosed cacers amog Hispaic me were expected to be prostate (30%), colo/rectum (11%) ad lug (8%). Amog Latias, the most commo cacers were expected to be breast (34%), colo/rectum (9%) ad lug (6%). 2 Cacer Icidece: State-specific data o cacer icidece ad mortality have ot bee published by South Atlatic state cacer registries due to the relatively small umbers of Hispaic residets i each state. Data for the Uited States, however, show that Hispaics have 30% lower icidece rates for all cacers combied whe compared to whites, but Latios geerally have higher rates of cacers associated with certai ifectios, such as cacers of the uterie cervix, liver, gallbladder ad stomach. 2 Hispaic me ad wome are 1.5 to 2 times more likely to have oe of these four cacers tha o-latios. Cacer Mortality: The umbers of cacer deaths i 2006 were expected to be 12,320 amog Hispaic me ad 11,000 i Latias i the U.S. I Hispaic me, lug cacer would accout for 21% of the deaths, followed by colo/rectum (11%) ad prostate (9%). Amog Latias, breast cacer is the leadig cause of cacer death (21% expected), followed by lug (9%) ad colo/rectum (6%). This patter is i cotrast with white o-hispaic wome, amog whom lug cacer is the most commo cause of cacer death. Childhood Cacer: Cacer is relatively rare amog childre (0-14 years) ad adolescets (15-19 years), ad the types of cacers foud i childre/adolescets are differet from those see i adults. It was estimated that 1,850 Hispaic childre would be diagosed with cacer i the U.S. i 2006. The prevalece of child/adolescet cacers i Hispaics (2.3% of all cacers) is higher tha that see i the total U.S. populatio, where oly 1% Cotiued Table 11.

of cacers are childhood cacers. Oe reaso is that the U.S. Hispaic populatio is youger o average tha the rest of the U.S. populatio; childre accout for 34% of the Hispaic populatio compared to 25% of the total U.S. populatio. 2 It was estimated that 350 Hispaic childre would die from cacer i 2006. Latios are affected by may ecoomic ad cultural disparities i health care, icludig a disproportioate lack of participatio i federally-fuded cacer research. Their lack of iclusio i health research had hidered the developmet of prevetio guidelies ad treatmets appropriate for this special populatio group. Amog Latios, iadequate screeig ad prevetive care ofte lead to late diagosis, delayed ad/or iadequate treatmet ad, with some cacers, higher mortality. The iequalities see i cacer icidece ad mortality betwee Latio ad o-latio populatios ca be reduced by elimiatig exposure to ifectious agets that cause cacer, prevetig Hispaics from adoptig traditioally-avoided high risk cacer behaviors, icreasig use of effective cliical prevetive behaviors ad assurig that every perso diagosed with cacer has affordable ad timely access to state-of-the-art, affordable cacer care. 10 Stage at Cacer Diagosis ad Survival Stage at diagosis idicates whether or ot the cacer has spread to other orgas ad regios of the body ad is oe of the tumor characteristics that is used to select a treatmet for the patiet. I geeral, cacers diagosed i the later stages (regioal ad distat) have a poorer progosis because the tumor has spread beyod the site of origi. Health care barriers such as lack of health isurace or a usual source of care are experieced by may Hispaic me ad wome i the U.S., as reflected i their lower rates of cacer screeig as well as other prevetive behaviors. Oe example of the effects of lack of access to care ca be see for female breast cacer. 14 Stages At Diagosis I Situ refers to a eoplasm that is oivasive ad cofied to a small area withi the tissue of origi Localized is a ivasive maligat cacer cofied etirely to the orga of origi Regioal is a cacer that 1) exteds beyod the limits of the orga of origi ito surroudig orgas/tissues or 2) ivolves regioal lymph odes by way of lymphatic system Distat idicates that the cacer has spread to other parts of the body, such as the lugs, liver, brai or to distat lymph odes. Breast cacer is the leadig cacer amog wome i the Uited States, represetig 32% of all cacer cases amog wome. It is estimated that 1 i 7 wome will develop breast cacer durig their lifetime. Although breast cacer icidece rates are lower amog Latias compared to o-latias, Latias are more frequetly diagosed at a later stage of breast cacer tha o-latias. Data for the U.S. below show that for female breast cacers diagosed durig 2000-2003, oly 54% of Latias compared with 63% of o-latias were diagosed i the local stage. (Chart 1) Latias are also more likely to be diagosed with larger breast tumors tha o-hispaic wome. I additio, Natioal data show that Hispaic me diagosed with prostate cacer are 3.7 times more likely to be diagosed at a later stage tha o-latios. 2 A cacer survival rate idicates the percetage of patiets who are alive for a give time period, usually five years, after a diagosis of cacer. SEER data show that Hispaic me ad wome have lower survival rates for most cacers, eve after adjustig for differece i age ad stage distributio. For example, a Hispaic ma diagosed with stomach cacer is 26% more likely to die from stomach cacer durig the five years after diagosis compared to a o-hispaic white ma of the same age ad same stage at diagosis. SEER data show that five-year survival from breast cacer for Latias durig 1992-2000 was oly 83.0% compared to 87.5% for o-latias. I additio, whe survival is adjusted for stage ad age at diagosis, Latias were 22% more likely to die from breast cacer tha white o-latias. 2 These differeces may reflect poorer access to timely, adequate health care. Access to Care Health disparities have log bee documeted amog Latios ad other special ethic ad/or racial miority groups i the U.S. Research studies, however, cosistetly show that whe patiets from ethic ad racial miority groups receive the same quality of health care as o-hispaic whites, for example, their health outcomes are very similar. Although the Spaish laguage is the secod most commo laguage i the U.S. ad the Natio has the fifth largest Spaish-speakig populatio i the world, laguage barriers prevet may Latios from uderstadig iformatio from a doctor s office or istructios for prescriptio medicie. Lack of culturally-appropriate services adds to barriers for Hispaics to access adequate health care services ad for them to be able to avigate successfully through the complex health care system. I additio, Hispaics i the U.S. are less likely to have health isurace coverage tha o-hispaics. 2 The Hispaic populatio comprises 15% of the U.S. populatio but Hispaics make up 31.3% of the Natio s uisured. 11 Data from the 2007 BRFSS survey show that whe asked Do you have Chart 1.

ay usual source of health care coverage?, Hispaics are more likely to aswer o tha o-hispaics. I the SAD, sparse data from the BRFSS also show that the proportio of adults without ay usual source of health care coverage is markedly higher amog Hispaic (58.9%) tha o-hispaic whites (12.7%) ad blacks (22.8%). (Table 13) Although data are limited to three states, the weighted average of these states estimates that 58.9% of South Atlatic Hispaics do ot have access to health care, compared to 43.3% for the U.S. I the South Atlatic Divisio 12.7% of o-hispaic whites ad 22.8% of o-hispaic blacks do ot have a usual source of health care coverage compared with 13.0% ad 22.9%, respectively, for the U.S. Several measures of disparities amog Hispaics are 9 : Demographics: Hispaics/Latios (H/L) are twice as likely to live i poverty as white o-hispaics (WN-H). H/L have a media icome that is 39% lower tha WN-H ad oe-third lower tha the atioal average H/L have lower rates of educatioal attaimet tha WN-H; oly 57% of H/L have completed a high school educatio compared with 89% of W-NH Health Status: 51% of H/L compared with 65% of WN-H ad 51% of BN-H report their health status as fair or poor. Access to Health Care: H/L are 2.5 times more likely to report ot havig a doctor tha WN-H. This disparity holds eve whe cotrollig for icome ad isurace status. H/L are more likely (54%) tha WN-H (43%) ad BN-H (44%) to go without eeded care. H/L are most likely to use a commuity health ceter, as their usual place of care (21% vs. 9% WN-H). Health Isurace Coverage: H/L are three times more likely to lack health isurace coverage tha NH-W (35% H/L vs. 12% WN-H). Eve at high icome levels, Hispaics are more likely to be uisured. Nearly half of Hispaics report beig uisured at some poit i the past year. H/L are least likely to have cotiuous isurace coverage eve whe a family member has full-time employmet (53% H/L vs. 82% WN-H). Quality Care (i additio to cacer screeig patters): H/L (140/1,000 discharges with complicatios), alog with Asia/Pacific Isladers (155/1,000), are more likely to die from complicatios i hospital care tha WN-H ad BN-H (both 133/1,000). Hispaics (55%) ad Asias (54%) are less likely to get a same day or ext day appoitmet tha WN-H (66%), ad more likely to wait six days or loger to see a doctor (26% H/L ad 18% Asia compared with 14% WN-H ad 19% BN-H). Hispaics ad Asias are less likely to uderstad their doctor ad less likely to feel their doctor listeed to them tha WN-H ad BN-H. H/L are twice as likely as WN-H to leave the doctor s office with uasked questios. America Cacer Society South Atlatic Cacer Facts & Figures 2008 15 Programs to Promote Healthy Behaviors amog Hispaics The lack of access to health care amog Hispaics as well as other disadvataged populatios ca adversely affect cacer icidece ad mortality throughout the cacer spectrum, from cacer prevetio ad early detectio to treatmet, survivorship ad palliative care. Studies have show, however, that social support offered i local outreach programs ad culturally-appropriate itervetios will help icrease participatio i these services. Lay Hispaic health advisors, alog with physicia ecouragemet, are a effective strategy to improve participatio i cacer screeig as well as prevetio iitiatives. 2 Numerous Hispaic outreach programs have bee active or are i various phases of developmet i the South Atlatic Divisio. Below are just a few examples of such programs desiged to improve access to care amog Hispaics ad help improve the overall health amog Latios i the SAD. Dedicated staff members for Hispaic outreach are strategically placed i regios with the highest Hispaic populatio. The SAD has hired biligual ad/or bicultural staff employed i key positios, icludig commuity outreach to specific populatios, patiet avigatio, ad Cacer Resource Network iformatio specialists. I some istaces, the South Atlatic Divisio was able to ifluece, ad i some cases, provide fudig for hirig of full time staff dedicated to Hispaic/Latio Outreach: Hispaic Parterships Project Maager, Hispaic Outreach Project Maager, Biligual Missio Delivery Maager ad Missio Delivery Maager.

The Istitute of Mexicas Abroad (IME), a divisio of the Secretary of Foreig Affairs of Mexico, has established VDS program guidelies ad officially promoted the developmet of this program sice 2004. The America Cacer Society is curretly i parterships with the Mexica cosulates i the District of Columbia; Raleigh, North Carolia ad Atlata, Georgia. The VDS Program Objectives are (1) to provide persoal ad culturally sesitive couselig ad referral services osite to cosular cliets ad their families o how to access available health services i both coutries, (2) whe ecessary ad appropriate, provide backup legal advocacy to cosular cliets o health-related issues such as erollmet i public health isurace programs ad establishig medical homes, (3) to educate ad iform cosular cliets o health issues ad prevetio topics relevat to their commuity ad their specific eeds ad (4) to build a close, direct partership likage of cliet referral ad health educatio amog local Mexica cosulates, local health departmets, commuity health orgaizatios ad the major health istitutios i Mexico. VDS or Health Widows icorporates biligual, bicultural ad highly traied health educators ad health advocates ito the regular flow of cosular services to provide o-site assessmet, referral ad likage to available health services. Advocates assess cosulate cliets for eligibility for govermet-fuded health isurace ad for other primary care services, facilitated by a tool called Guide to Health Programs. I additio, health educators coduct 15 to 30 miute cosumer educatio sessios for a large umber of persos per day. The educatioal presetatios iclude a array of importat public health ad health care access topics. Materials such as Public Service Aoucemets ad short health educatio videos are ofte used to ehace the presetatios. 16 America Cacer Society South Atlatic Cacer Facts & Figures 2008
III. Estacio de Salud y Servicios de El Cosulado de El Salvador - Health ad Services Statio of the Salvadora Cosulate The Hispaic Istitute for Blidess Prevetio (HIBP) is a o-profit orgaizatio (status 501 (3)) whose missio is to cotribute to lowerig the risk of blidess by focusig o uderserved families, miorities ad other groups who are more likely to be at risk of eye-related diseases. Sice November 2005, HIBP has partered with the Salvadora Cosulate ad other local ad federal agecies to create ad implemet a Program called Estacio de Salud y Servicios de El Cosulado de El Salvador (Health ad Services Statio of the Salvadora Cosulate). HIBP is the leadig agecy for this program i both the Cosulates of El Salvador i Washigto, D.C. ad Woodbridge, VA. The goal of this partership is to help overcome barriers such as laguage, educatio, opportuity ad icome that limit access to existig health programs, commuity health resources ad public health isurace programs. The Salvadora Cosulate Program improves cacer awareess amog Salvadora families who atted the cosulate for their legal eeds. Through a o-site cliic for prevetive health care, family members receive health screeigs for chroic diseases ad culturally-appropriate iformatio through educatioal sessios, speakers, prit ad audiovisual materials. For example, patiets who receive a screeig for diabetes, hypertesio or other disease risk factors will also have a oe-o-oe cacer educatio sessio which icludes persoalized cacer iformatio ad referral for cacer screeig as appropriate for age ad geder of the patiet. Topics iclude cacer prevetio, early detectio ad treatmet for the most commo types of cacer amog Hispaics, as well as iformatio o commuity programs that offer free or low-cost screeigs for the uderserved. Limitatios These data should be iterpreted with cautio. Although BRFSS ad YRBSS data i this report are suppressed if less tha 50 persos, the relatively small umbers of resposes preseted here may result i variatios due to small umbers aloe. The risk factor data, however, ca give a geeral idicatio of the cacer risk behaviors amog Latios relative to o-hispaic whites ad o-hispaic blacks. Also, cacer icidece ad mortality data for U.S. Hispaics caot easily be extrapolated to the experieces of Hispaics withi the South Atlatic states because of regioal ad cultural differeces. Idetificatio of ethic populatios is still icosistet ad uderreported i medical records ad death certificates. I additio to the suspected uderrepresetatio of the Hispaic/ Latio populatio i U.S. Cesus data, aecdotal reports are that Hispaic immigrats may retur to their ative couty after a diagosis of cacer, which would result i uderreportig of cacer deaths amog Latios. 10 Refereces 1.

Colorectal Cacer Screeig Guidelies The America Cacer Society, the America College of Radiology, ad the U.S. Multi-Society Task Force o Colorectal Cacer (a group that comprises represetatives from the America College of Gastroeterology, America Gastroeterological Associatio, ad America Society for Gastroitestial Edoscopy) have released the first-ever joit cosesus guidelies for colorectal cacer screeig. The guidelies, which represet the most curret scietific evidece ad expert opiio available, also outlie quality elemets essetial to each of the recommeded testig methods. Of sigificace i the ew guidelies: two ew tests are added to the list of recommeded optios: stool DNA (sdna) ad CT coloography (CTC), also kow as virtual colooscopy a preferece is stated for screeig tests that ot oly detect cacer early but also detect precacerous polyps, as those tests provide a greater potetial for cacer prevetio through polyp removal. ay proposed colorectal screeig test that has ot bee show i the medical literature to detect the majority of cacers preset at the time of testig should ot be offered to patiets for colorectal cacer screeig. That icludes some types of previously edorsed guiaic-based stool tests. Based o a review of the historic ad recet evidece, the ew recommedatios are: Begiig at age 50, both me ad wome at average risk for developig colorectal cacer should use oe of the screeig tests below. The tests that are desiged to fid both early cacer ad polyps are preferred if these tests are available to you ad you are willig to have oe of these more ivasive tests. Talk to your doctor about which test is best for you. Tests That Detect Adeomatous Polyps ad Cacer flexible sigmoidoscopy every 5 years* colooscopy every 10 years double cotrast barium eema every 5 years* CT coloography (virtual colooscopy) every 5 years* Tests That Primarily Detect Cacer fecal occult blood test (FOBT) every year*,** fecal immuochemical test (FIT) every year*,** stool DNA test (sdna), iterval ucertai* *Colooscopy should be doe if test results are positive. **For FOBT or FIT used as a screeig test, the take-home multiple sample method should be used. A FOBT or FIT doe durig a digital rectal exam i the doctor s office is ot adequate for screeig. I additio, people should talk to their doctor about startig colorectal cacer screeig earlier ad/or beig screeed more ofte if they have ay of the followig colorectal cacer risk factors: a persoal history of colorectal cacer or adeomatous polyps a persoal history of chroic iflammatory bowel disease (Crohs disease or ulcerative colitis) a strog family history of colorectal cacer or polyps (cacer or polyps i a first-degree relative [paret, siblig, or child] youger tha 60 or i 2 or more first-degree relatives of ay age) a kow family history of hereditary colorectal cacer sydromes such as familial adeomatous polyposis (FAP) or hereditary o-polyposis colo cacer (HNPCC) It was the strog opiio of the expert pael that colo cacer prevetio should be the primary goal of colorectal cacer screeig, so the guidelies state a preferece for tests desiged to detect both early cacer ad adeomatous polyps, as log as resources are available ad patiets are willig to udergo a ivasive test. The pael recogized that some patiets will ot wat to udergo a ivasive test that requires a bowel prep, may prefer to have screeig i the privacy of their home, or may ot have access to the ivasive tests due to lack of coverage or local resources, so will opt for stool occult blood or DNA testig, which ca be performed at home, without bowel prep. But the pael said providers ad patiets should uderstad that those tests are less likely to prevet cacer compared with the ivasive tests; they must be repeated at regular itervals to be effective; ad if the test is abormal, a ivasive test (colooscopy) will still be eeded.

America Cacer Society Screeig Guidelies For the Early Detectio of Cacer i Asymptomatic People Site Breast Colo & rectum Prostate Uterus Cacer-related checkup Recommedatio Yearly mammograms are recommeded startig at age 40. The age at which screeig should be stopped should be idividualized by cosiderig the potetial risks ad beefits of screeig i the cotext of overall health status ad logevity. Cliical breast exam should be part of a periodic health exam about every 3 years for wome i their 20s ad 30s ad every year for wome 40 ad older. Wome should kow how their breasts ormally feel ad report ay breast chage promptly to their health care providers. Breast self-exam is a optio for wome startig i their 20s. Screeig MRI is recommeded for wome with a approximately 20%-50% or greater lifetime risk of breast cacer, icludig wome with a strog family history of breast or ovaria cacer ad wome who were treated for Hodgki disease. Begiig at age 50, me ad wome at average risk should begi screeig with oe of the examiatio schedules below. Tests that detect adeomatous polyps ad cacer: A flexible sigmoidoscopy every 5 years A colooscopy every 10 years A double-cotrast barium eema every 5 years Computed Tomographic (CT) coloography every 5 years Tests that primarily detect cacer: A guaiac-based fecal occult blood test (gfobt) or fecal immuochemical test (FIT), with high test sesitivity for cacer every year Stool DNA test (iterval ucertai) Idividuals with a persoal or family history of colorectal cacer or adeomas, iflammatory bowel disease, or high-risk geetic sydromes should cotiue to follow the most recet recommedatios for idividuals at icreased or high risk. The PSA test ad the digital rectal examiatio should be offered aually, begiig at age 50, to me who have a life expectacy of at least 10 years. Me at high risk (Africa America me ad me with a strog family history of 1 or more first-degree relatives diagosed with prostate cacer at a early age) should begi testig at age 45. For both me at average risk ad high risk, iformatio should be provided about what is kow ad what is ucertai about the beefits ad limitatios of early detectio ad treatmet of prostate cacer so that they ca make a iformed decisio about testig. Cervix: Screeig should begi approximately 3 years after a woma begis havig vagial itercourse, but o later tha 21 years of age. Screeig should be doe every year with regular Pap tests or every 2 years usig liquidbased tests. At or after age 30, wome who have had 3 ormal test results i a row may get screeed every 2 to 3 years. Alteratively, cervical cacer screeig with HPV DNA testig ad covetioal or liquid-based cytology could be performed every 3 years. However, doctors may suggest a woma get screeed more ofte if she has certai risk factors, such as HIV ifectio or a weak immue system. Wome aged 70 ad older who have had 3 or more cosecutive ormal Pap tests i the last 10 years may choose to stop cervical cacer screeig. Screeig after total hysterectomy (with removal of the cervix) is ot ecessary uless the surgery was doe as a treatmet for cervical cacer. Edometrium: The America Cacer Society recommeds that at the time of meopause all wome should be iformed about risks ad symptoms of edometrial cacer ad strogly ecouraged to report ay uexpected bleedig or spottig to their physicias. Aual screeig for edometrial cacer with edometrial biopsy begiig at age 35 should be offered to wome with or at risk for hereditary opolyposis colo cacer (HNPCC). For idividuals udergoig periodic health examiatios, a cacer-related checkup should iclude health couselig about tobacco, su exposure, diet ad utritio, sexual practices, evirometal ad occupatioal exposures ad depedig o a perso s age ad geder, might iclude examiatios for cacers of the thyroid, oral cavity, ski, lymph odes, testes, ad ovaries, as well as for some omaligat diseases. America Cacer Society guidelies for early cacer detectio are assessed aually i order to idetify whether there is ew scietific evidece sufficiet to warrat a re-evaluatio of curret recommedatios. If evidece is sufficietly compellig to cosider a chage or clarificatio i a curret guidelie or the developmet of a ew guidelie, a formal procedure is iitiated. Guidelies are formally evaluated every 5 years regardless of whether ew evidece suggests a chage i the existig recommedatios. There are 9 steps i this procedure, ad these guidelies for guidelie developmet were formally established to provide a specific methodology for sciece ad expert judgmet to form the uderpiigs of specific statemets ad recommedatios from the Society. These procedures costitute a deliberate process to esure that all Society recommedatios have the same methodological ad evidece-based process at their core. This process also employs a system for ratig stregth ad cosistecy of evidece that is similar to that employed by the Agecy for Heath Care Research ad Quality (AHCRQ) ad the US Prevetive Services Task Force (USPSTF). 2008, America Cacer Society, Ic.

Cacer Research The America Cacer Society pursues its goal of elimiatig cacer as a major health problem by fudig the work of qualified researchers at scietific ad medical istitutios across the coutry. The ACS is the largest source of private, ot-for-profit cacer research fuds i the Uited States, secod oly to the federal govermet. Sice the ACS Research Program bega i 1946, the Society has devoted over $3.2 billio to cacer research. By fudig groudbreakig research, the America Cacer Society has cotributed to may importat discoveries that have led to a better uderstadig of cacer ad cacer treatmet. The research program is composed of two mai umbrellas: Extramural Grats ad the Itramural compoets of Epidemiology ad Surveillace Research, the Behavioral Research Ceter (BRC) ad the Statistics ad Evaluatio Ceter (SEC). The extramural program supports ivestigator-iitiated projects takig place i leadig ceters across the coutry ad as well as health professioal traiig grats (HPTGs) awarded to urses, physicias ad ocology social work professioals. Applicatios for grats are subjected to a rigorous exteral peer review which esures that oly the highest quality applicatios receive fudig. The Society is justly proud of the 42 ivestigators who were supported before they wet o to wi the Nobel Prize, cosidered the highest accolade ay scietist ca receive. This is a tribute to the ACS s Research Program ad the stregth of its peer-review process. As importat as ay medal, however, is the cotributio each of these scietists has made toward uderstadig more about cacer ad traslatig that kowledge ito prevetio ad treatmet measures that help patiets ad their families.

Data Sources & Techical Notes Demographic Data Demographic data describe the populatio distributio withi a commuity. These data iclude age, race, icome, educatio, as well as a host of other variables that describe the socioecoomic ad cultural compositio of a commuity. Demographic data are helpful i idetifyig populatios most at risk for cacer i order to better target cacer cotrol efforts. We must, however, esure that itervetios utilize messages ad huma resources reflective of the racial ad cultural make-up of the commuity. Populatio data are obtaied from the U.S. Cesus Bureau ad Claritas. 9 Cacer Icidece ad Mortality Data Cacer icidece data are cases that are ewly-diagosed durig a specific time period; 2001-2005 i this issue, uless otherwise oted. Data o aual cacer icidece couts ca be helpful, for example, i plaig a particular survivorship program. Deaths due to cacer durig a specific time period are referred to as cacer mortality. Couts of cacer deaths ca also be used to describe the cacer burde i a commuity. Comparig the umber of ew cacer cases/deaths from year to year is ot recommeded because populatio demographics chage over time. Further, it is difficult to compare cacer patters across two or more regios i the same year because of potetial differeces i populatio characteristics. Therefore, age-adjusted rates, which accout for populatio differeces, are used to track year-to-year chages i the cacer burde. Both icidece ad mortality rates are age-adjusted to the 2000 U.S. stadard populatio to allow for comparisos across populatios with differet age distributios. Age-adjusted cacer icidece rates are the umber of people per 100,000 who are diagosed with cacer durig a give time period, 2001-2005 uless otherwise oted. Age-adjusted cacer icidece rates are adjusted as oted above for the age distributio of the populatio. Cacer mortality rates are defied as the umber of people per 100,000 who die ad have cacer listed as the uderlyig cause of death o their death certificate. Age-adjusted cacer mortality rates, like age-adjusted icidece rates, accout for populatio differeces ad should be used whe comparig cacer mortality patters from differet populatios. These mortality data also cover 2001-2005 uless otherwise oted. Couts of cacer cases ad deaths are preseted as total couts for the 5-year period 2001-2005 uless otherwise oted. For a average aual cout, divide the 5-year cout by five. For the couty- ad ward-specific cacer data, certai restrictios apply to the presetatio of the cacer case/death couts ad rates. I order to maitai privacy of idividuals, the umber of cases/deaths is ot icluded for categories i which the cout is less tha six. Also, to avoid variatio i data due to small umbers, icidece ad mortality rates are oly prseted 88 if the case/death cout exceeds 25. Exceptios to these restrictios are oted where applicable. Statistical sigificace is tested o the idividual couty/ward age-adjusted icidece ad mortality rates to determie whether or ot the rate is statistically sigificatly differet from the overall state rate. If a icidece or mortality rate is statistically sigificatly lower tha the state rate, this is idicated by a < placed ext to the rate ad if a rate is sigificatly higher tha the state rate, a > is ext to that rate. Statistical sigificace is oly tested i case/death categories whe the cout exceeds 25. A statistically sigificatly higher or lower rate does ot ecessarily mea that the differece is biologically or cliically importat or of special ote. These differeces could have occurred by chace aloe sice we are makig multiple comparisos. Stage at Time of Cacer Diagosis idicates whether or ot the cacer has spread to other orgas ad regios of the body. Also, stage at diagosis is oe of the tumor characteristics that the ocologist uses to select a treatmet for the patiet. Summary categories for stage at diagosis are as follows: I Situ refers to a eoplasm that is oivasive ad cofied to a small area withi the tissue of origi; Localized is a ivasive maligat cacer cofied etirely to the orga of origi; Regioal is a maligat cacer that 1) exteds beyod the limits of the orga of origi ito surroudig orgas/tissues or 2) ivolves regioal lymph odes by way of lymphatic system; ad Distat idicates that the cacer has spread to other parts of the body, such as the lugs, liver, brai or to distat lymph odes. Estimates of New Cacer Cases ad Deaths for 2008 are provided by the America Cacer Society s Surveillace Research Departmet. 2 Begiig i 2007, estimated ew cacer cases were computed usig a ew, more accurate method developed by re- America Cacer Society South Atlatic Cacer Facts & Figures 2008

For more detail, visit www.cacer.org/docroot/stt/stt_0.asp State ad couty cacer icidece ad mortality data are provided by the State Cacer Registries i the South Atlatic (SA) Divisio. I most SA states, mortality data are also provided by the State Cacer Registry, but i Marylad, Virgiia ad West Virgiia, these data are provided by the State Vital Statistics Departmets. Cotact iformatio for these state registries ad vital statistics offices is o page 87. Data o U.S. cacer icidece, mortality ad survival are from the Surveillace, Epidemiology ad Ed Results (SEER) Program. 7 Prevetio ad Early Detectio - Risk Factor Data Thirty percet of cacer deaths, icludig early 90% of lug cacer deaths, are the result of tobacco use. 3 Although tobacco use, primarily cigarette smokig, has bee associated most strogly with cacers of the lug, brochus ad other respiratory orgas, it also icreases risks of cacers of the pacreas, cervix, kidey, bladder ad stomach, ad acute myeloid leukemia. Utilizig tobacco prevalece data to idetify differeces betwee geder, race/ethicity, age ad educatioal status will help focus comprehesive efforts to decrease cosumptio of tobacco products i specific populatios. Idetificatio of populatios with high smokig rates will also help target areas where policies ad ordiaces regardig clea idoor air are still eeded. Eatig a healthy diet, egagig i physical activity ad maitaiig a healthy weight are additioal lifestyle factors that help reduce the risk of developig cacer. The prevalece of each of these modifiable risk behaviors amog both adults ad youth is reported here as a importat measure of each state s cacer burde. It is estimated that obtaiig recommeded cacer screeig tests ad adoptig healthy behaviors such as good utritio, reasoable body weight ad regular physical exercise could elimiate at least 50% of cacer deaths. 2 Adult Risk Factor Data: The BRFSS is a survey of the Ceters for Disease Cotrol ad Prevetio (CDC), Natioal Ceter for Chroic Disease Prevetio ad Health Promotio (NCCDPHP) ad the US states ad territories. Data are gathered through computer-assisted telephoe iterviews with adults ages 18 ad older who live i a household i a state or US territory. BRFSS data are reported o a aual basis although ot all questios are asked aually. Screeig data are from the 2006 BRFSS Survey ad risk factor data are from the 2007 survey. 5 Youth Risk Factor Data: The YRBSS is a state-based survey of the CDC ad NCCDPHP i volutary collaboratio with states. The survey is desiged to provide state ad local prevalece estimates o health risk behaviors, such as tobacco use, uhealthy dietary behaviors ad physical iactivity, amog youth who atted public high schools. The YRBSS is a bieial survey coducted i odd-umbered years ad data preseted here are from the 2007 survey. Not all states participate i the YRBSS. 11 Youth Tobacco Data (Virgiia): The Youth Tobacco Survey (YTS), also developed by the CDC, icludes iteratioal, atioal ad state school-based surveys of middle school ad high school studets. The YTS ad YRBSS use idetical samplig methods ad the same wordig for questios about tobacco use to eable states to use the high school data o tobacco use collected by both surveys. Not all states participate i the YTS. 11 Risk factor data selected for this publicatio are related to specific recommedatios i the Society s guidelies o Nutritio ad Physical Activity for Cacer Prevetio as follows: 2 Tobacco Use: ACS Recommedatio: Do ot use ay tobacco products. BRFSS Questio: Adults who are curret smokers. YRBSS Questios: High school studets who (1) have smoked cigarettes at least oe day durig the last 30 days, (2) have used chewig tobacco, suff or dip o at least 1 day durig the 30 days before the survey. Physical activity: ACS Recommedatio: Egage i at least 30 miutes of moderate to vigorous physical activity, above usual activities, o 5 or more days of the week; 45 to 60 miutes of itetioal physical activity are preferable. Risk factor data used i the South Atlatic Divisio Cacer Facts & Figures 2008 were obtaied from surveys coducted by the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillace System (BRFSS), the Youth Risk Behavior Surveillace System (YRBSS) ad the Youth Tobacco Survey (YTS) for studets i high school. A descriptio of the data sources as well as a summary of the risk factor determiats is provided below. BRFSS Questio: Adults with 30+ miutes of moderate physical activity five or more days per week, or vigorous physical activity for 20+ miutes three or more days per week. YRBSS Questio: High school studets who were physically active durig ay kid of physical activity that icreased their heart rate ad made them breathe hard some of the time, for a total of at least 60 miutes/day o 5 or more days durig the 7 days before the survey. Cotiued America Cacer Society South Atlatic Cacer Facts & Figures 2008 89
Nutritio: ACS Recommedatio: Eat 5 or more servigs of a variety of vegetables ad fruits every day. BRFSS Questio: Adults who have cosumed fruits ad vegetables 5 or more times per day. YRBSS Questio: High school studets who have cosumed 5 or more fruits ad vegetables per day. Overweight: ACS Recommedatios: (1) Avoid excessive weight gai throughout life, (2) Achieve ad maitai a healthy weight if curretly overweight or obese. BRFSS Questio: Weight classificatio by Body Mass Idex (BMI) that is overweight (BMI = 25 -< 30) or obese (BMI >= 30.0). YRBSS Questio: High school studets who were at or above the 85th percetile but below the 95th percetile for body mass idex (overweight) or above the 95th percetile (obese), by age ad sex, based o referece data from the Natioal Health ad Nutritio Examiatio Survey. Each state sectio also icludes a two-page At A Glace report that summarizes state-specific iitiatives o tobacco cotrol 10, cacer screeig 6, comprehesive cacer cotrol efforts 8, improved access to care 3 ad other achievemets 4. Special State Notes Notes o Marylad Cacer Registry Data Icidece data for 2004 ad 2005 from the Marylad Cacer Registry have bee suppressed sice these data are udergoig a data quality review ad were uavailable at time of publicatio. Marylad state ad couty icidece data are icluded up to 2003, or for multiple years 1999-2003. Stage at diagosis data are also available for 1999-2003. Notes o Virgiia Cacer Registry Data Data i the Virgiia Cacer Registry (VCR) reflect a coservative accout of the disease. Not all outpatiet facilities ad private pathology laboratories report cases to the registry yet. Virgiia residets sometimes travel out-of-state for diagosis ad treatmet ad may ot be reported to the VCR. While the registry does maitai exchage agreemets with cacer registries i eighborig states, there is some lag time i postig those cases. Cacer data for areas primarily i Southwest Virgiia may be uder-reported; iterpret these data carefully. Because the completeess of reportig varies i differet areas of the state, some observed differeces i case couts or rates are most likely reportig artifacts. For istace, rates may be higher i more urbaized areas because case ascertaimet is more complete. Similarly, case reportig may be more complete for certai racial groups, cacer sites, or diagosis stages. Cacer registry staff have ot bee able to assess the extet to which these biases exist, so iterpret the data with cautio. Data Sources 1. America Cacer Society, Cacer Facts & Figures 2008.
