Socio-demographic and medical variables, including sex, age, education attainment, disease stage, cancer site, treatment type, number of comorbidities, the Accessibility/Remoteness Index of Australia (ARIA) [ 20], and the Index of Relative Socioeconomic Disadvantage (IRSD) [ 21] classification were assessed at baseline.
Patient factors associated with both outcomes were increased age, reduced socioeconomic status, lower educational attainment, chronic disease and multimorbidity.
Her research project on smoking among primary school children – which made the link between cigarettes, poor attainment and lung disease – was later expanded for a medical degree.
Children who benefited from the program later posted better health, higher educational attainment, less heart disease and, for women, greater earnings and less reliance on welfare as adults.
Similar results for the attainment of inactive disease status were obtained in the German Registry.
Our study underscores the importance of disparities in educational attainment in cardiovascular disease, cancer and other causes of death in Asia and Australasia and, hence, the crucial role of education in disease prevention.
The primary endpoint of CERTAIN is attainment of low disease activity (LDA) one year after starting or switching biologic agents and will be assessed only among patients who have previously been treated with one or more anti-TNF-α therapies.
This suggests, at least among the present group of women, that antioxidants play a strong role in the development of frailty and disability, independent of other background factors, such as smoking, educational attainment and chronic disease.
We observe that common genetic variants associated with educational attainment, risk for neuropsychiatric disease, and intracranial volume are enriched within regulatory elements involved in cortical neurogenesis, demonstrating the importance of this early developmental process for adult human cognitive function.
A pCR rate of 28% was noted, with attainment of minimal residual disease in a further 23%, making surgery possible in 47 out of 49 patients.
