Background: Malnutrition negatively impacts patients with hematologic malignancies and is considered a poor marker and indicator of prognosis. Our study explored the association between malnutrition and patients hospitalized with acute leukemia, including patients with both acute myeloid and acute lymphocytic leukemia. Methods: The National Inpatient Sample (NIS) 2019-2020 was analyzed with the use of the International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision (ICD-10) codes to identify the patients admitted with the primary diagnosis of Acute Leukemia (that included patients with both Acute Myeloid and Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia). The cohort was further classified into patients who had concurrent malnutrition and those without malnutrition. The association between several outcomes was studied after adjusting for the confounding variables through multivariate regression analysis. Results: A total of 24855 patients with the primary discharge diagnosis of acute leukemia were included in the study. Among these, 3425(13.7%) were found to have concomitant malnutrition. After adjusting for the confounding variables, patients with malnutrition were found to have significantly increased odds of mortality (OR 2.89, 95% CI: 2.11-3.94, P<0.001). Similarly, the length of stay was increased by 9.1

Ensuring a diverse cancer research workforce remains challenging despite national recommendations and pathway programs dedicated to this mission. A panel composed of researchers, educators, and implementation scientists convened at the Binaytara Foundation’s 2023 Summit on Cancer Health Disparities to discuss funded pathway opportunities, share case examples, and outline best practices to achieve a diverse workforce and support research in cancer health equity. The panelists highlighted existing pathway opportunities through the National Cancer Institute’s Center to Reduce Health Disparities and illustrated specific funded examples, such as the University of Utah’s Huntsman Cancer Institute’s PathMaker program, the University of Utah’s postbaccalaureate program, and NIH diversity supplement mechanisms. Programmatic examples were illustrated with success stories from the panel. The panelists concluded with the following insights for successful pathway implementation: 1) Since a diverse research workforce benefits society, investing in training and funding mechanisms is critical to promote individual and societal success in making progress towards cancer health equity; 2) A holistic, inclusive, and pathway-focused approach can successfully support, retain, and promote students, trainees, and faculty underrepresented in medicine and science; and 3) An inclusive workforce is best prepared to meet the needs of the diverse communities we serve.
尽管国家建议和路径计划都致力于这一使命,但确保癌症研究人员的多元化仍然充满挑战。一个由研究人员、教育工作者和实施科学家组成的小组在比奈塔拉基金会的 2023 年癌症健康差距峰会上讨论了受资助的途径机会、分享了案例并概述了实现多元化人才队伍和支持癌症健康公平研究的最佳实践。小组成员重点介绍了美国国立癌症研究所减少健康差异中心(National Cancer Institute's Center to Reduce Health Disparities)提供的现有途径机会,并举例说明了具体的资助案例,如犹他大学亨茨曼癌症研究所(University of Utah's Huntsman Cancer Institute)的PathMaker计划、犹他大学的学士后计划以及美国国立卫生研究院(NIH)的多元化补充机制。小组成员用成功案例对计划实例进行了说明。小组成员最后就成功实施路径提出了以下见解:1) 由于多元化的研究队伍有益于社会,因此投资于培训和资助机制对于促进个人和社会在实现癌症健康公平方面取得成功至关重要;2) 全面、包容和以途径为重点的方法可以成功地支持、留住和提升在医学和科学领域代表性不足的学生、受训人员和教师;3) 包容性的人才队伍是满足我们所服务的多元化社区需求的最佳准备。
