“…Although accredited centers are required to have a navigation process, at least 50% of biopsies are performed outside these centers, and women are more likely to receive fragmented care (RobinsonWhite et al, 2010;Williams et al, 2011). In these settings, the following would be a common scenario.…”

Navigated women had lower scores on every distress measure and were less likely to seek information from an outside source. Women who were more satisfied with their care reported decreased distress; the factors influencing distress varied depending on whether they were the recipient of navigation services. In the non-navigated population, general satisfaction with care and accessibility were more likely to influence distress.

“…During this same period, the increased percentage of non-normal mammograms is unlikely to be attributable to greater use of mammography because mammography use was nearly universal (>90%) among women in the high-risk age groups (>50 years). The decrease in lumpectomies may have been attributed to the increase in use of needle biopsies (Williams et al, 2011; Zimmerman et al, 2013). …”

Background Although screening mammography may contribute to decreases in breast cancer mortality in a population, it may also increase the risk of false positives, anxiety, and unnecessary and costly medical procedures in individuals. We report trends in self-reported non-normal screening mammography results, lumpectomies, and breast cancer in a representative sample of California women. Methods Data were obtained from the 2001, 2005, and 2009 cross-sectional California Health Interview Surveys (CHIS) and weighted to the California population. CHIS employed a multistage sampling design to administer telephone surveys in 6 languages. Our study sample was restricted to women 40 years and older who reported a screening mammogram in the past 2 years. Sample sizes were 13,974 in 2001, 12,069 in 2005, and 15,552 in 2009. Women reporting non-normal results were asked whether they had an operation to remove the lump and, if so, whether the lump was confirmed as malignant. Findings Between 2001 and 2009, the percent of California women who reported having been diagnosed with breast cancer was relatively stable. For each of the three age groups studied, the percentage of non-normal mammography results increased and the percentages of lumpectomies decreased and, for every woman reporting a diagnosis of breast cancer, three women reported a lumpectomy that turned out not to be cancer. This ratio was greater for younger women and less for older women. Conclusions Despite relatively constant rates of breast cancer diagnosis from 2001 to 2009, the percentage of non-normal mammography results increased and lumpectomies declined.

“…The large number of cases allows for robust evaluation of practice and outcomes in common cancers and for the study of rare cancers with numbers of cases that are often an order of magnitude greater than institution-based series. [9][10][11][12][13][14][15] The NCDB may also be used to study disparities and to direct policy. One study conducted by the American Cancer Society demonstrated that patients who lacked health insurance had a poorer outcome with any stage of cancer compared with patients with private insurance.…”

Although the NCDB was only available to a limited number of trained researchers in the past, the CoC recently established a participant user file that allows any investigator at a CoC-accredited program to conduct research using the NCDB.…”
