Housework Reduces All-Cause and Cancer Mortality in Chinese Men
BACKGROUND Leisure time physical activity has been extensively studied. However, the health benefits of non-leisure time physical activity, particular those undertaken at home on all-cause and cancer mortality are limited, particularly among the elderly. METHODS We studied physical activity in relation to all-cause and cancer mortality in a cohort of 4,000 community-dwelling elderly aged 65 a...
متن کاملDepression, cardiac mortality and all-cause mortality
Depression is an illness that kills. The links between depression and medical illness are well established and bi-directional, but evidence is mounting that depression increases mortality as well as morbidity in adults, particularly older adults. We examine the evidence that the increase in mortality in depression applies to all-cause mortality as well as cardiac mortality, and describe plausib...
متن کاملRenal Function and All-Cause Mortality Risk Among Cancer Patients
Renal dysfunction predicts all-cause mortality in general population. However, the prevalence of renal insufficiency and its relationship with mortality in cancer patients are unclear.We retrospectively studied 9465 patients with newly diagnosed cancer from January 2010 to December 2010. Renal insufficiency was defined as an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) <60 mL/min/1.73 m using th...
متن کاملRe: All-cause mortality in randomized trials of cancer screening.
To support their argument that results of cancer screening trials based on disease-specific mortality are unreliable, Black et al. (1) compared the treatment effect measured by disease-specific mortality with the effect measured by all-cause mortality in 12 such trials. They found “major inconsistencies” between the two measures. We disagree with their interpretation and illustrate our reasons ...
متن کاملAll-cause mortality in randomized trials of cancer screening.
BACKGROUND The most widely accepted end point in randomized cancer screening trials is disease-specific mortality. The validity of this end point, however, rests on the assumption that cause of death can be determined accurately. An alternative end point is all-cause mortality, which depends only on the accurate ascertainment of deaths and when they occur. We compared disease-specific and all-c...
