Men with low health literacy less likely to choose active surveillance for prostate cancer after tumor profiling

April 9, 2021
Tumor gene profiling is a tool that can help patients with a cancer diagnosis make informed decisions about treatment. In predominantly white populations, among men with early stage, favorable-risk prostate cancer, these tools have been shown to increase patient acceptance of active surveillance a common, evidence-based approach to monitor the tumor before a more aggressive treatment, like surgery or radiation.
However, a new study from researchers at the University of Illinois Chicago and Northwestern University shows that in a predominantly Black, urban patient population with substantial social disadvantage, tumor profiling had the opposite effect among men with clinically similar prostate cancers it decreased patient acceptance of active surveillance. In fact, men with low health literacy were more than seven times less likely to accept active surveillance if their tumors were profiled, compared with those with high health literacy. ....

Study: Exercise painful for peripheral artery disease patients, but beneficial

Study: Exercise painful for peripheral artery disease patients, but beneficial
By
(0)
Fast-paced walking is painful for the millions of people with peripheral artery disease. But new research shows that a slower, pain-free pace won t cut it if improvement in mobility is the goal.
The study included more than 300 of the roughly 8.5 million Americans with PAD. It s a condition in which plaque build-up in arteries slows the flow of blood to the legs.

People with PAD can typically walk only a couple of blocks before they have to stop and rest, said study author Dr. Mary McDermott, a professor at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine, in Chicago. ....

Study sheds light on benefits of exercise for people with peripheral artery disease

Study sheds light on benefits of exercise for people with peripheral artery disease

Washington [US], April 8 (ANI): In people with peripheral artery disease, walking for exercise at an intensity that induces ischemic leg pain (caused by restricted blood flow) improves walking performance, a new study suggested.
The findings of the study were published in the journal titled JAMA .
The study also showed that walking at a slow pace that does not induce ischemic leg symptoms is no more effective than no exercise at all.
This randomised trial is the first to show that a home-based walking exercise program improved walking ability in people with peripheral artery disease when exercise was conducted at a high intensity that induced ischemic leg symptoms but not when the exercise was conducted at a low intensity without ischemic leg symptoms. ....

Americans hit the road to get vaccinations, giving new meaning to the term 'covid long-haulers'

As I headed south on Interstate 55 in central Illinois recently, windshield wipers slap-tapping against a heavy rain, an overhead sign blared a warning in all-caps golden neon letters. “Pay Attention,” it said, “You Never Know What Is Ahead.”
Fitting, I thought. By driving 169 miles from my home in suburban Chicago to a downstate CVS Pharmacy for my first coronavirus vaccination, I was investing seven hours of a workday to protect myself from what may be ahead. As a 62-year-old with preexisting conditions, I had decided to take a one-day “vaccication.” ....

No pain, no gain in exercise for peripheral artery disease: study - World News

2021-04-08 16:35:25 GMT2021-04-09 00:35:25(Beijing Time) Xinhua English
CHICAGO, April 8 (Xinhua) No pain means no gain when it comes to reaping exercise benefits for people with peripheral artery disease (PAD), according to a study at the Northwestern Medicine in the U.S. state of Illinois.
For the study, 305 people with peripheral artery disease at four medical centers were randomized to high-intensity exercise, low-intensity exercise or a control group that got telephone calls that were not about exercise. Those randomized to an exercise intervention were asked to walk up to 50 minutes per session, five days a week. Those in high intensity were asked to walk at a pace that was fast enough to elicit ischemic leg symptoms during exercise. Those randomized to low intensity were asked to walk at a comfortable pace that did not induce ischemic leg symptoms. ....
