Abstract
BACKGROUND Behavioral health disorders (BHDs) can often be exacerbated in the setting of cancer. We sought to define the prevalence of BHD among cancer patients and characterize the association of BHD with surgical outcomes. STUDY DESIGN Patients diagnosed with lung, esophageal, gastric, liver, pancreatic, and colorectal cancer between 2018 and 2021 were identified within Medicare Standard Analytic Files. Data on BHD defined as substance abuse, eating disorder, or sleep disorder were obtained. Postoperative textbook outcomes (ie no complications, prolonged length of stay, 90-day readmission, or 90-day mortality), as well as in-hospital expenditures and overall survival were assessed. RESULTS Among 694,836 cancer patients, 46,719 (6.7%) patients had at least 1 BHD. Patients with BHD were less likely to undergo resection (no BHD: 23.4% vs BHD: 20.3%; p < 0.001). Among surgical patients, individuals with BHD had higher odds of a complication (odds ratio [OR] 1.32 [1.26 to 1.39]), prolonged length of stay (OR 1.36 [1.29 to 1.43]), and 90-day readmission (OR 1.57 [1.50 to 1.65]) independent of social vulnerability or hospital-volume status resulting in lower odds to achieve a TO (OR 0.66 [0.63 to 0.69]). Surgical patients with BHD also had higher in-hospital expenditures (no BHD: $16,159 vs BHD: $17,432; p < 0.001). Of note, patients with BHD had worse long-term postoperative survival (median, no BHD: 46.6 [45.9 to 46.7] vs BHD: 37.1 [35.6 to 38.7] months) even after controlling for other clinical factors (hazard ratio 1.26 [1.22 to 1.31], p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS BHD was associated with lower likelihood to achieve a postoperative textbook outcome, higher expenditures, as well as worse prognosis. Initiatives to target BHD are needed to improve outcomes of cancer patients undergoing surgery.

Abstract
Although the relationship between psychological factors and pancreatic cancer outcomes has been widely discussed, controversy remains. We will for the first time systematically summarize the literature to explore the correlation of anxiety and depression to the prognosis of patients with pancreatic cancer. The findings will fill existing research gaps, informing healthcare providers about better psychological care and medical treatment. The following databases will be retrieved from their inception to July 2023: Cochrane Library, MEDLINE (PubMed), Web of Science, EMBASE, and four Chinese databases (Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang Database, Chinese Biomedical Literature Database, and Chongqing VIP Chinese Science and Technology Periodical Database). The World Health Organization Clinical Trials Registry, Chinese Clinical Registry, and ClinicalTrials.gov will be searched to identify other related studies. A manual search will be performed to identify missing eligible studies based on the reference list of selected articles. The search will focus on studies published in Chinese or English. To assess the risk of bias in the selected articles, Newcastle-Ottawa Quality Assessment Scale (NOS) will be used for the cohort study. Funnel plots and Egger's test will be used to assess whether publication bias exists. Moreover, the Grading of Recommendations Assessment Development and Evaluation (GRADE) will be utilized to analyze the credibility of the results from selected articles. Two independent evaluators will implement the study selection and data extraction, as well as evaluate the risk of bias and evidence quality. Data will be analyzed using Stata 16.0. Trial registration: PROSPERO registration number is CRD42022366232.

Poor Access to Mental Healthcare is Associated with Worse Postoperative Outcomes Among Patients with Gastrointestinal Cancer. Ann Surg Oncol 2024; 31:49-57. [PMID: 37814182 DOI: 10.1245/s10434-023-14374-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/13/2023] [Accepted: 09/17/2023] [Indexed: 10/11/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Mental health has an important role in the care of cancer patients, and access to mental health services may be associated with improved outcomes. Thus, poor access to psychiatric services may contribute to suboptimal cancer treatment. We conducted a geospatial analysis to characterize psychiatrist distribution and assess the impact of mental healthcare shortages with surgical outcomes among patients with gastrointestinal cancer. METHODS Medicare beneficiaries with mental illness diagnosed with complex gastrointestinal cancers between 2004 and 2016 were identified in the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER)-Medicare registry. National Provider Identifier-registered psychiatrist locations were mapped and linked to SEER-Medicare records. Regional access to psychiatric services was assessed relative to textbook outcome, a composite assessment of postoperative complications, prolonged length of stay, 90-day readmission and mortality. RESULTS Among 15,714 patients with mental illness and gastrointestinal cancer, 3937 were classified as having high access to psychiatric services while 3910 had low access. On multivariable logistic regression, areas with low access had higher risk of worse postoperative outcomes. Specifically, individuals residing in areas with low access had increased odds of prolonged length of stay (OR 1.11, 95%CI 1.01-1.22; p = 0.028) and 90-day readmission (OR 1.19, 95%CI 1.08-1.31; p < 0.001), as well as decreased odds of textbook outcome (OR 0.85, 95%CI 0.77-0.93; p < 0.001) and discharge to home (OR 0.89, 95%CI 0.80-0.99; p = 0.028). CONCLUSION Patients with mental illness and lower access to psychiatric services had worse postoperative outcomes. Policymakers and providers should prioritize incorporating mental health screening and access to psychiatric services to address disparities among patients undergoing gastrointestinal surgery.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Depression remains prevalent in patients undergoing head and neck cancer (HNCA) operations. The present study aimed to assess the impact of depression on perioperative and readmission outcomes following HNCA resection. METHODS All elective hospitalizations involving HNCA resection were identified from the 2010-2019 Nationwide Readmissions Database. Patients were stratified by history of depression. To perform risk-adjustment in assessing perioperative and readmission outcomes, 3:1 nearest neighbor matching was performed. A subpopulation analysis was also conducted to assess interval development of depression in the postoperative period. RESULTS Of an estimated 133,018 patients undergoing HNCA operations, 8.9% (n = 11,855) had comorbid depression. Over the decade-long study period, the prevalence of depression in this population increased (7.8% in 2010 vs. 10.0% in 2019, NPTrend<0.001). Among 24,938 propensity matched patients, those with depression had similar incidence of in-hospital mortality (0.4 vs. 0.7%, p = 0.14) as well as perioperative medical (22.0 vs. 21.9%, p = 0.93) and surgical (10.2 vs. 10.3, p = 0.84) complications, though had higher rates of non-home discharge (16.9 vs. 13.5%, p < 0.001) and 30-day readmission (13.6 vs. 11.8%, p = 0.030). Predictors of depression in the postoperative period included primary coverage by Medicare or Medicaid as well as comorbid anxiety or drug use disorder. CONCLUSION The prevalence of depression in HNCA patients continues to increase. Although depression was not associated with increased in-hospital mortality and complications, it did impact rates of rehospitalization as well as non-routine discharge. Screening and therapeutic interventions addressing such postoperative events may serve to improve long-term clinical and financial outcomes in this at-risk population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Major depressive disorder (MDD) and anxiety were recognized in treating pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). This longitudinal study identified risk factors for MDD and anxiety and established associations with patients' quality of life (QoL) and survival outcomes. MATERIALS AND METHODS We used PHQ-9 and GAD-7 questionnaires to diagnose MDD and anxiety in PDAC patients between October 2021 and March 2022 at a Chinese center. Characteristics and clinical data were analyzed for risk factors and EORTC QLQ-C30 questionnaire was administered for QoL before the first chemotherapy. Furthermore, chemotherapy compliance and 1-year survival were compared during follow-up. RESULTS MDD and anxiety occurred in 51.8% and 44.7% of 114 patients over the half-year period. Employment at work (odds ratio [OR]: 5.514, p = 0.001; OR: 3.420, p = 0.011) was an independent risk factor, while radical surgery (OR: 0.342, p = 0.034; OR: 0.238, p = 0.004) was a protective factor. Several aspects of decreased QoL were discovered after their onsets. Higher incidences of physical disorders (p = 0.004; p < 0.001), mental disorders (p = 0.001; p < 0.001), anti-therapy emotions (p = 0.002; 0.001), and chemotherapy suspensions (p = 0.001; p = 0.043) were observed. Furthermore, the 1-year mortalities for all patients and those receiving radical surgeries were correlated with MDD (p = 0.007; 0.036) and anxiety (p = 0.010; 0.031). CONCLUSIONS MDD and anxiety are common in PDAC patients and correlated with poor QoL and survivals. Therefore, appropriate mental management is required in future.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mental illness (MI) and suicidal ideation (SI) often are associated with a diagnosis of cancer. We sought to define the incidence of MI and SI among patients with gastrointestinal cancers, as well as ascertain the predictive factors associated with SI. METHODS Patients diagnosed between 2004 and 2016 with stomach, liver, pancreatic, and colorectal cancer were identified from the SEER-Medicare database. County-level social vulnerability index (SVI) was extracted from the Centers for Disease Control database. Multivariable logistic regression was used to identify factors associated with SI. RESULTS Among 382,266 patients, 83,514 (21.9%) individuals had a diagnosis of MI. Only 1410 (0.4%) individuals experienced SI, and 359 (0.1%) committed suicide. Interestingly, SI was least likely among patients with pancreatic cancer (ref: hepatic cancer; odds ratio [OR] 0.67, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.52-0.86; p = 0.002), as well as individuals with stage III/IV disease (OR 0.59, 95% CI 0.52-067; p < 0.001). In contrast, male (OR 1.34, 95% CI 1.19-1.50), White (OR 1.34, CI 1.13-1.59), and single (OR 2.03, 95% CI 1.81-2.28) patients were at higher odds of SI risk (all p < 0.001). Furthermore, individuals living in relative privilege (low SVI) had markedly higher risk of SI (OR 1.33, 95% CI 1.14-1.54; p < 0.001). Moreover, living in a county with a shortage of mental health professionals was associated with increased odds of developing SI (OR 1.21, 95% CI 1.04-1.40; p = 0.012). CONCLUSIONS Oncology care teams should incorporate routine mental health and SI screening in the treatment of patients with gastrointestinal cancers, as well as target suicide prevention towards patients at highest risk.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study evaluated risk factors predicting unplanned 30-day acute service utilization among adults subsequent to hospitalization for a new diagnosis of leukemia, lymphoma, or myeloma. This study explored the prevalence of medical complications (aligned with OP-35 measure specifications from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services [CMS] Hospital Outpatient Quality Reporting Program) and the potential impact of psychosocial factors on unplanned acute care utilization. METHODS This study included 933 unique patients admitted to three acute care inpatient facilities within a nonprofit community-based health care system in southern California from 2012 to 2017. Integrated comprehensive data elements from electronic medical records and facility oncology registries were leveraged for univariate statistics, predictive models constructed using multivariable logistic regression, and further exploratory data mining, with predictive accuracy of the models measured with c-statistics. RESULTS The mean age of study participants was 65 years, and 55.1% were male. Specific diagnoses were lymphoma (48.7%), leukemia (35.2%), myeloma (14.0%), and mixed types (2.1%). Approximately one fifth of patients received unplanned acute care services within 30 days postdischarge, and over half of these patients presented with one or more symptoms associated with the CMS medical complication measure. The predictive models, with c-statistics ranging from 0.7 and above for each type of hematologic malignancy, indicated good predictive qualities with the impact of psychosocial functioning on the use of acute care services (P values < .05), including lack of consult for social work during initial admission (lymphoma or myeloma), history of counseling or use of psychotropic medications (lymphoma), and past substance use (myeloma). CONCLUSION This study provides insights into patient-related factors that may inform a proactive approach to improve health outcomes, such as enhanced care transition, monitoring, and support interventions.
