Cancer incidence and mortality in Asian Indians: a review of literature from the United States, South Asia, and beyond. 亚洲印第安人的癌症发病率和死亡率:来自美国、南亚和其他地区的文献综述。
Hozefa A Divan

Objective: The purpose of this paper is to provide a framework for future research and awareness activities in the United States.

Methods: The current literature in the English language on cancer incidence and mortality among Asian Indians was reviewed.

Results: Asian Indians comprise 89% of the U.S. South Asian population. There are few studies in the United States or Canada on cancer incidence or mortality. In India, oral and cervical cancers have high incidence and mortality rates, but the rates of cancers common in the West are rising. In Great Britain, cancer rates in the South Asian community are similar to those of their non-Asian counterparts.

Conclusions: Cancer incidence and mortality rates in India and Great Britain provide a foundation for scientific inquiry among this population in the United States, but more data is needed to assess the cancer burden and implement cancer prevention activities in this country.

目的:本文的目的是为美国未来的研究和意识活动提供一个框架。方法:回顾目前有关亚洲印第安人癌症发病率和死亡率的英文文献。结果:亚裔印度人占美国南亚人口的89%。在美国和加拿大,很少有关于癌症发病率和死亡率的研究。在印度,口腔癌和子宫颈癌的发病率和死亡率很高,但西方常见的癌症发病率正在上升。在英国,南亚社区的癌症发病率与非亚洲社区相似。结论:印度和英国的癌症发病率和死亡率为美国这一人群的科学调查提供了基础,但需要更多的数据来评估美国的癌症负担和实施癌症预防活动。

Cervical cancer among young Vietnamese American women: incidence, risk factors, and early detection. 年轻越南裔美国妇女的子宫颈癌:发病率、危险因素和早期发现。
Jenny H Pham McNeill

Objectives: This paper has three objectives: 1) to review the problem of cervical cancer in Vietnamese American women; 2) to identify the gaps in the published literature regarding this problem in young Vietnamese American women; and 3) to gain a better understanding of their health behavior in order to address an important health concern for this population in the future.

Methods: Published literature about the health status of Vietnamese American women was reviewed.

Results: Little has been published about the health of Young Vietnamese American women (are 18-30), the age group at highest risk for Hepatitis B infection. Also, it is unclear why they do not have regular Pap screenings.

Conclusions: A greater understanding of this population's high-risk behaviors, such as sexual and smoking behaviors, must be reached. More research is needed on the impact of acculturation and their knowledge and understanding of screening. Educational approaches targeting risky behaviors and the need for screening must be developed. Implementation of effective health education and disease prevention strategies are needed.

目的:本文有三个目的:1)回顾越南裔美国妇女宫颈癌的问题;2)找出已发表文献中关于年轻越南裔美国女性这一问题的差距;3)更好地了解他们的健康行为,以便在未来解决这一人群的重要健康问题。方法:回顾已发表的有关越南裔美国妇女健康状况的文献。结果:关于年轻越南裔美国女性(18-30岁)健康状况的报道很少,这一年龄组是乙型肝炎感染风险最高的年龄组。此外,目前还不清楚为什么他们没有定期进行子宫颈抹片检查。结论:必须进一步了解这一人群的高危行为,如性行为和吸烟行为。需要对文化适应的影响以及他们对筛查的认识和理解进行更多的研究。必须制定针对危险行为和筛查需求的教育方法。需要实施有效的卫生教育和疾病预防战略。

Cancer, Cancer Risk Factors, and Community-Based Cancer Control Trials in Vietnamese Americans. 癌症,癌症危险因素和基于社区的癌症越南裔美国人对照试验。
Stephen J. McPhee, Tung T. Nguyen

OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this paper is to describe the epidemiology of cancer in Vietnamese Americans and reviews some of the successful intervention strategies that have been accomplished in Northern California. FINDINGS: Preventable cancers are among the leading causes of death in Vietnamese Americans, who have higher than average rates of smoking and lower than average rates for breast and cervical cancer screening, and lower rates of hepatitis B vaccination. Community­based intervention trials have shown good success in reducing these risk factors. CONCLUSIONS: Despite successes, more work needs to be done. Continuing research and dissemination of successful intervention strategies will help improve the health of Vietnamese Americans, one of the fastest growing populations in the U.S.

目的:本文的目的是描述癌症在越南裔美国人中的流行病学,并回顾在北加利福尼亚州成功的一些干预策略。研究结果:可预防的癌症是越南裔美国人的主要死因之一,他们的吸烟率高于平均水平,乳腺癌和宫颈癌筛查率低于平均水平,乙肝疫苗接种率较低。社区­;基于干预的试验显示,在减少这些风险因素方面取得了良好的成功。结论:尽管取得了成功,但还需要做更多的工作。继续研究和传播成功的干预策略将有助于改善越南裔美国人的健康,越南裔美国人是美国增长最快的人口之一。

A Socio-cultural Perspective on Cancer Control Issues for Asian Americans. 从社会文化角度看亚裔美国人的癌症控制问题。
Marjorie Kagawa-Singer

PURPOSE: Eighty­five to ninety percent of cancer incidence is attributable to lifestyle choices, such as diet, life habits such as smoking, and environmental factors. Culture is the single force most influential on lifestyles. This paper provides a framework to understand the potential contribution of sociocultural factors to cancer control. METHODS: This literature review of culture and cancer control provides a perspective on Asian American populations. Culture is defined in a manner that enables researchers and practitioners to begin to focus on the fundamental elements of culture that directly influence health behavior. FINDINGS: Only four studies were found that address sociocultural factors in cancer control for Asian Americans. Each of these studies found significant variations in the response to cancer than Euro­American populations. Only mainstream researchers or practitioners, who are knowledgeable enough about Asian American cultures to be sensitive to these differences, would recognize these variations. CONCLUSIONS: The widening disparities in cancer outcomes between Asian- and Euro­Americans challenges the current research and practice paradigms for cancer control. A Cultural Systems Approach would strengthen future studies. This paradigm requires multi­level analyses of individuals and populations within specific contexts in order to identify culturally based strategies to improve practice along the cancer care continuum.

目的:百分之八十到九十的癌症发病率可归因于生活方式的选择,如饮食、吸烟等生活习惯以及环境因素。文化是对生活方式影响最大的单一力量。本文为了解社会文化因素对癌症控制的潜在贡献提供了一个框架。方法:这篇关于文化与癌症控制的文献综述提供了一个关于亚裔美国人的视角。文化的定义使研究人员和从业人员能够开始关注直接影响健康行为的文化基本要素。研究结果:仅发现四项研究涉及美国亚裔癌症控制中的社会文化因素。每项研究都发现亚裔美国人对癌症的反应与欧裔美国人相比存在明显差异。只有对亚裔美国人文化有足够了解并对这些差异保持敏感的主流研究人员或从业人员才能认识到这些差异。结论:亚裔美国人与欧裔美国人在癌症治疗结果上的差距不断扩大,这对当前的癌症控制研究和实践模式提出了挑战。文化系统方法将加强未来的研究。这种范式需要在特定背景下对个人和人群进行多层次分析,以确定基于文化的策略,从而改善癌症治疗过程中的实践。

It has become something of a tradition for each year’s Program Chairs to choose a way to make a contribution to the VL Symposium series. This year, the theme of the conference is “Visual Languages and Innovation,” and in keeping with this theme, we have chosen diversity as our contribution. Our goal was to encourage a diverse group of researchers to participate in this conference so that we would have interaction among a wide variety of ideas relevant to visual languages. Towards this end, we formed a heterogeneous program committee composed of researchers representing a wide variety of areas including: HCI issues of languages: visual programming language design, theory, and implementation; visual databases; software visualization; and end-user programming languages, to name but a few. We are very pleased that we received such a wide variety of high-quality submissions. Eighty submissions were received, and of these we accepted 35 papers plus 10 posters. We have attempted to arrange the program so as to encourage plenty of interaction among the attendees. In addition to formal paper presentations, there are informal one-on-one presentations in the form of demos and posters, sizable coffee breaks, and unstructured lunch breaks to give people a chance to brainstorm and exchange ideas. We have also arranged special events aimed at sharing ideas from two particularly challenging applications of visual languages. The first of these special events is the Child’s Play pre-conference workshop organized by Alexander Repenning, Roland Huebscher, and Clayton Lewis. This workshop brings together researchers interested in programming languages for end-users particularly children. Demos from this workshop will be presented during the main conference to share the highlights of this work with the rest of the VL community. The second of these events is the Visual Programming Challenge, organized by Allen Ambler. Throughout the year, participants in this event have been working on using their own visual languages to manage the control of vehicles built from LEG0 Programmable Bricks in real-time, and the results of their work will be shared during a special session. Many thanks to the organizers of these events for their imagination and hard work in finding ways to share the excitement and innovative ideas gleaned from these areas with the rest of the conference. Our goal of diversity includes not only bringing in brand new research ideas, but also looking at how the mainstream ideas from this research area have grown and matured over the years. For VL research to reach its zenith, we must not only concentrate on innovation in the future, but also study and build on the gains made in the past. One way we are addressing this need is through tutorials from an introductory tutorial aimed at newcomers to the VL field to in-depth tutorials on VL topics aimed at those who may be familiar with VLs in general but wish to learn more about specific topic areas. We also thank
每年的计划主委选择一种方式对VL专题讨论会系列作出贡献已成为一种传统。今年会议的主题是“视觉语言与创新”,与这一主题相一致,我们选择了多样性作为我们的贡献。我们的目标是鼓励不同的研究人员参加这次会议,这样我们就可以在与视觉语言相关的各种各样的想法之间进行互动。为此,我们成立了一个由代表各个领域的研究人员组成的异构项目委员会,包括:语言的HCI问题:可视化编程语言的设计、理论和实现;可视化数据库;软件可视化;以及终端用户的编程语言,仅举几例。我们很高兴收到这么多高质量的作品。我们收到了80份投稿,其中我们接受了35篇论文和10张海报。我们试图安排节目,以鼓励与会者之间的充分互动。除了正式的书面报告之外,还有非正式的一对一的演示和海报形式的报告,相当大的咖啡休息时间,以及非结构化的午餐休息时间,让人们有机会进行头脑风暴和交流想法。我们还安排了特别活动,旨在分享视觉语言的两个特别具有挑战性的应用。这些特别活动中的第一个是由Alexander Repenning, Roland Huebscher和Clayton Lewis组织的儿童游戏会前研讨会。本次研讨会汇集了对最终用户(尤其是儿童)编程语言感兴趣的研究人员。该研讨会的演示将在主会议期间展示,与VL社区的其他成员分享这项工作的亮点。第二个活动是由Allen Ambler组织的可视化编程挑战。在这一年中,该活动的参与者一直致力于使用他们自己的视觉语言来实时管理由乐高积木(LEG0 Programmable Bricks)制造的车辆的控制,他们的工作成果将在特别会议上分享。非常感谢这些活动的组织者,他们的想象力和辛勤工作,设法与会议的其他成员分享从这些领域收集到的令人兴奋和创新的想法。我们多元化的目标不仅包括引入全新的研究理念,还包括研究这个研究领域的主流理念是如何在过去的几年里成长和成熟的。为了使VL研究达到顶峰,我们不仅要专注于未来的创新,还要研究和巩固过去取得的成果。我们解决这一需求的一种方法是通过教程,从针对VL领域新手的入门教程到针对那些可能熟悉VL但希望更多地了解特定主题领域的人的VL主题的深入教程。我们还要感谢尼克·王尔德组织了一个由三位最杰出的先驱组成的小组,s - k。张,菲利普·考克斯和大卫·坎菲尔德·史密斯,他们将发表他们对VL长期研究的看法。我们还要感谢约翰·斯塔斯科和特雷弗·斯梅德利负责监督特别活动和辅导项目;约翰·阿特伍德、朱迪·古尔卡和朱迪·海斯在管理任务上提供了很多帮助;和总主席h - j。Hoffmann,指导委员会和项目委员会,感谢他们帮助我们计划和实施高质量的会议。最重要的是,我们要感谢所有的作者和与会者,他们使这次会议成为新思想的源泉,并加深了对VL研究领域的理解。欢迎来到VL ' 96!
