After adjusting for age, admission status, and treatment, excellent HRQoL was more likely among participants of Torres Strait Islander origin [adjusted odds ratio (AOR) 3.68; 95 % CI 1.23–11.01], those living in regional areas (AOR 5.59; 95 % CI 1.42–22.06), and those whose main language spoken at home was not English (AOR 3.60; 95 % CI 1.08–11.99) and less likely among those reporting less contact with Indigenous people (AOR 0.23; 95 % CI 0.68–0.81). Conclusion: Assessing HRQoL is important to identifying and improving the length and quality of cancer survivorship, especially in groups that have significantly poorer cancer outcomes, such as Indigenous Australians. Acknowledging the study’s observational nature, we found HRQoL was lower than reported for other Australians, and we identified some socio-demographic factors that were associated with excellent HRQoL. Such assessments are an important component of identifying and evaluating appropriate interventions to improve the health and well-being of Indigenous cancer patients.]]> Thu 13 Jan 2022 10:30:32 AEDT ]]> Health professional's perspectives of the barriers and enablers to cancer care for Indigenous Australians https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:24648 Thu 13 Jan 2022 10:28:23 AEDT ]]> The use of traditional, complementary and alternative medicine in Sri Lankan cancer care: results from a survey of 500 cancer patients https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:9524 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:35:32 AEDT ]]> Topical and oral CAM in acne: a review of the empirical evidence and a consideration of its context https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:844 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:31:26 AEDT ]]> The response of general practitioners to the threat of violence in their practices: results from a qualitative study https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:2934 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:27:04 AEDT ]]> Complementary and alternative medicine practitioner consultations among those who have or have had cancer in a Norwegian total population (Nord-Trondelag Health Study): prevalence, socio-demographics and health perceptions https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:11090 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:12:04 AEDT ]]> Evaluating the impact of cancer on complementary and alternative medicine use, distress and health related QoL among Australian women: a prospective longitudinal investigation https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:28493 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:39:31 AEDT ]]> The characteristics of women who use hypnotherapy for intrapartum pain management: preliminary insights from a nationally-representative sample of Australian women https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:29152 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:35:46 AEDT ]]> Complementary and alternative medicine use for constipation: a critical review focusing upon prevalence, type, cost, and users' profile, perception and motivations https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:29320 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:34:22 AEDT ]]> Women's attitudes towards the use of complementary and alternative medicine products during pregnancy https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:29316 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:34:20 AEDT ]]> Hypertension: what are the self-care and health-care-seeking behaviours in women over time? https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:27756 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:27:44 AEDT ]]> Prevalence of glucosamine and omega-3 fatty acid use and characteristics of users among mid-age women: analysis of a nationally representative sample of 10,638 women https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:27755 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:27:44 AEDT ]]>
