- چکیده انگلیسی: Introduction: Colorectal cancers (CRC) continues to increase worldwide and is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. CRC can be prevented through early detection using several modalities. However, like any screening program participation remains suboptimal. This study assessed the factors associated with participation in a stool based CRC screening that was carried out as part of an Integrated Health Screening Survey for civil servants. Materials and Methods: Civil servants who participated in a health survey (N=10,756, mean age 48.08 ± 5.26 years old) were studied. Demographic factors (gender, age groups, marital status, employment status, body mass index [BMI] categories, smoking status, personal and family history of cancers) were analyzed to assess for features associated with willingness to participate in this fecal immunohistochemistry test (FIT) screening for CRC. Comorbid conditions studied were cardiac disease, diabetes mellitus, dyslipidemia, hypertension and stroke. Multivariate analysis was performed to evaluate variables associated with participation in CRC screening programme. Results: Of the invited 10,756 participants, 7,360 returned a stool specimen giving a participation rate of 68.4%. Those who participated were significantly older (60 years [77.8%], p0.05). Multivariate analyses showed that older age (45-49, 50-54, 55-59 and >60) and employment status (professional) remained significant factors associated with participation in a stool based CRC screening. Conclusions: Our study showed that older age and professional employment status were significantly associated with willingness to participate in a stool based CRC screening.

- چکیده:
- چکیده انگلیسی: Objectives: To culturally adapt the Short Form Health-36 version 2 (SF-36v2) into the Brunei-Malay context and
determine its reliability and validity for measuring health-related quality of life (HRQOL) in healthy individuals and
patients with chronic kidney disease in Brunei Darussalam. Methods: An iterative multistep strategy involving setting up
a bilingual expert panel, pretesting, text revision and back translation was used to prepare the Brunei-Malay SF-36v2 as
an adaptation from the Malaysian-Malay SF-36v2. The Brunei-Malay SF-36v2 was then self-administered to a sample of
healthy individuals (n=95) and predialysis chronic kidney disease outpatients (n=95) resident in Brunei. The mean
(SD) age of the participants was 46.6 (17.8) years. Results: Data completion rate was 100% with minimal floor effects
(≤0.21) in all the 8 domains and >15% ceiling effects in 3 of the 8 domain scales. Cronbach’s alpha was >0.70 for all
the 8 domain scales. Scaling success was 100% for convergent validity, with 100% item discriminant validity for all
domain scales except Social Functioning (94%), Mental Health (85%) and General Health (85%). Principal component
analysis of the two-factor dimension explained 68% overall variance and accounted for 81% reliable variance, but the
exact SF-36 two-factor summary constructs in the standard algorithm were not replicated in the Bruneian population.
Conclusions: The Brunei-Malay SF-36v2 is a valid and reliable instrument for measuring HRQOL in healthy individuals
and patients with chronic kidney disease in Brunei. The summary scales should, however, be interpreted with caution.
Further studies should be carried out to assess additional psychometric properties of the Brunei-Malay SF-36v2.- انتشار مقاله: 24-09-1396
