Cancer-Related Behavioral Risk Factors Among Volunteer and Career Firefighters Enrolled in the Cancer Assessment and Prevention Study (CAPS) and the Fire Fighter Cancer Cohort Study (FFCCS).

Graber, Judith M. ;

Shah, Nimit N.

March 28, 2025 | International Fire Service Journal of Leadership and Management, 2025, v. 18

Although nearly two-thirds of U.S. firefighters serve as volunteers, they are rarely included in studies of firefighters' health. The Firefighter Cancer Assessment and Prevention Study (CAPS), a research component of the Fire Fighter Cancer Cohort Study (FFCCS), has enrolled over 600 U.S. volunteer firefighters to help address this gap.

The Firefighter Cancer Assessment and Prevention Study (CAPS), a research component of the Fire Fighter Cancer Cohort Study (FFCCS), has enrolled over 600 U.S. volunteer firefighters to help address this gap. This study found a greater prevalence of cancer-related health behaviors among volunteers compared to career firefighters. These behaviors included cigarette smoking, heavy alcohol use, and obesity. While the differences in behaviors varied between U.S. states, all state-level prevalences were higher among volunteer firefighters than career firefighters. The findings of this study support the need to provide volunteer firefighters with overall and targeted health promotion and cancer prevention programs.

AB - Systematic review. AB - We searched in the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Prevention Research Synthesis database through June 2024 (PROSPERO: CRD42023458870). We included infodemiology studies published in English and reported using AI to process social media posts on PrEP. Two reviewers independently screened citations, extracted data, and conducted a risk of bias assessment using the Joanna Briggs Institute Critical Appraisal Checklist for Prevalence Studies. Findings are narratively summarized. AB - Of the 135 citations screened, eight infodemiology studies were identified, analyzing over 58.9 million posts. Infodemiology studies found the PrEP topics commonly discussed in communities (e.g., barriers of uptake), rumors that may raise public health concerns (e.g., PrEP is a prevention method against COVID-19 infection), geographic locations where concerns regarding risk of acquiring HIV were raised (e.g., most HIV-related posts were from the 10 states with the highest numbers of new HIV diagnoses), and predicted HIV trends (e.g., HIV-related tweets were negatively correlated with the county-level HIV incidence rate in the following year). AB - Despite the limitations of this review including a small number of studies reviewed, our review suggests social media posts may provide information on real-time PrEP-related concerns, and AI can accelerate and enhance the processing of mass data to identify the information that communities need and the areas/locations that may need HIV prevention intervention.

Latino/a/x populations face heightened structural and social barriers to effective interventions for HIV prevention, including pre-exposure prophylaxis, and across the HIV care continuum. Implementation science provides a timely methodology for developing, testing, and scaling effective interventions into practice. Implementation science considers a specific population's priorities and environment, which is especially relevant given the diversity of Latino/a/x populations. In this article, we present lessons learned from our group's experiences leading HIV-related implementation research with various Latino/a/x populations in the United States and Puerto Rico. We highlight the importance of structural and social determinants of health, community-engaged research, and culturally tailored interventions to address HIV disparities. Implementation researchers and institutional leaders can leverage these lessons learned to drive the multilevel change needed to end the HIV epidemic among Latino/a/x populations.

AB - We evaluated seven combinations of data from six administrative data sources (American Community Survey (ACS) five-year estimates, built environment, emergency medical services non-fatal overdose response, prescription drug monitoring program, carceral release, and historical fatal overdose data). Fatal overdoses in Rhode Island census block groups (CBGs) were predicted using two machine learning approaches: linear regressions and random forests embedded in a nested cross-validation design. We evaluated performance using mean squared error and the percentage of statewide overdoses captured by CBGs forecast to be in top percentiles from 2019 to 2021. AB - Linear models trained on ACS data combined with one other data source performed well, and comparably to models trained on all available data. Those including emergency medical service, prescription drug monitoring program, or carceral release data with ACS data achieved a priori goals for percentage of statewide overdoses captured by CBGs prioritized by models on average. AB - Prioritizing neighborhoods for overdose prevention with forecasting is feasible using a simple-to-implement model trained on publicly available ACS data combined with only one other administrative data source in Rhode Island, offering a starting point for other jurisdictions.

AB - This study examined associations between access to leisure-time physical activity (LTPA) facilities and parks and repeated measures of glycated hemoglobin (A1C) over time, using follow-up tests among United States Veterans with newly diagnosed type-2 diabetes (T2D). AB - Data were analyzed from 274,463 patients in the Veterans Administration Diabetes Risk cohort who were newly diagnosed with T2D between 2008 and 2018 and followed through 2023. Generalized estimating equations with a logit link function and binomial logistic regression were used to examine associations. AB - Patients were on average 60.5 years of age, predominantly male (95.0 %) and white (66.9 %), and had an average of 11.7 A1C tests during the study follow-up period. In high- and low-density urban communities, a one-unit higher LTPA facility density score was associated with 1 % and 3 % greater likelihood of in-range A1C tests during follow-up, respectively, but no association was observed among patients living in suburban/small town and rural communities. Across community types, closer park distance was not associated with subsequent greater odds of in-range A1C tests. Unexpectedly, in low-density urban areas, the likelihood of in-range A1C tests was 1 % lower at farther park distances. AB - These results suggest that broader access to LTPA facilities, but not park proximity, may contribute in small ways to maintaining glycemic control after T2D diagnosis in urban communities. Tailored interventions may be needed to promote patients' effective use of LTPA facilities and parks.

This study determined probable Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) rates in a cohort of 142 commercial fishermen in the United States and assessed factors that influence PTSD outcomes and severity. Fishermen representing four fisheries were sampled: salmon gillnetters (Alaska), Dungeness crab (Oregon), scallopers and lobstermen (Massachusetts). Participants self-reported information on health, sleep, activity, and substance use through surveys, and responded to a brief PTSD screener (PC-PTSD-5) that assesses probable PTSD under the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5). Positive PTSD screening rates in male fishermen were 12% (as compared to 10% for female fishermen), roughly three times the national average for US men (4%). Fishermen with self-reported depression, financial struggles, inability to control important things in their lives, difficulty going to ( AB - = .0278) or staying ( AB - = .038) asleep were significantly more likely to screen positive for PTSD. Factors influencing the severity of PTSD symptoms in those that have experienced a traumatic event included: financial insecurity, interpersonal concerns (family, crew), stress, and concern for safety on the vessel. Interestingly, sleep variables did not impact the severity of PTSD symptoms, only the outcome of probable PTSD. These results suggest the need to better understand the nature of traumatic events in fishing communities and to validate existing PTSD screening tools with fishermen to determine their accuracy in diagnosing PTSD in this population.

AB - Prenatal alcohol exposure has been linked to adverse neurodevelopmental outcomes. However, its effects on developmental outcomes in children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) remain unclear. We examined associations between prenatal alcohol exposure during the first trimester (PAE-FT) and early learning ability, behavioral problems, and severity of autistic traits in preschool-aged children in a large multi-site case-control study, the Study to Explore Early Development. Children were classified as ASD (n = 1237) or population comparison without ASD (POP, n = 1334) after an in-person assessment covering cognitive abilities and detailed autistic traits. Mothers completed questionnaires on their child's behavior and autism-related traits, as well as their alcohol use during pregnancy. Of children in the ASD and POP groups, 18.5% and 20.2%, respectively, were exposed to PAE-FT. Exposure to 3 or more alcoholic drinks per week was associated with increased externalizing behaviors (i.e., attention deficits and aggressive behaviors) in children in both the ASD and POP groups, and with exacerbated social communication and interaction deficits in children with ASD only. First trimester exposure to 1-2 alcoholic drinks per week was associated with early learning delays for children in the ASD group, but not the POP group. As expected, our findings suggest that PAE-FT is associated with adverse behavioral development of children regardless of ASD status. However, PAE-FT may exacerbate autism-specific developmental problems and learning difficulties in children with ASD. Gathering a prenatal alcohol exposure history for children with and without ASD could contribute to a better understanding of developmental trajectories, aiding informed decisions for interventions and support.

Marmosets were identified as the predominant NHP species that is susceptible to spontaneous Pseudomonas infections based on a 27-year survey in a primate colony, encompassing several NHP species. 26 common marmosets were retrospectively identified and evaluated for spontaneous Pseudomonas spp. infections. Clinical symptoms included lethargy, weight loss, gastrointestinal issues (diarrhea, bloating, vomiting, poor appetite), increased respiratory effort, and difficulty urinating. Affected organs (larynx, lungs, liver, gallbladder, intestines, colon, uterus, and urinary bladder) appeared discolored, distended, or enlarged. Microscopic findings included inflammatory infiltrates, edema, necrosis, hemorrhage, and pseudomembranous lesions. Only animals with clinical symptoms or gross evidence of bacterial infection were cultured; therefore, the actual incidence of Pseudomonas spp. infections is unknown.

Poor nutrition can lead to adverse fetal development and complications for women. In 2009, the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infant, and Children (WIC), a US safety net program for low-income pregnant, breastfeeding or postpartum women and young children, was revised to improve dietary quality, promoting intake of whole grains, fruits, and vegetables. Prior studies found the revision improved dietary quality, but its impact on downstream health is less understood. We analyzed 2008-2012 national birth certificate data (N = 11,855,417) and employed a quasi-experimental difference-in-differences analysis to examine pre-post trends in outcomes among women predicted to be to be eligible for WIC (treatment group) while "differencing" out pre-post trends among predicted WIC-ineligible women (control group). Outcomes include infant birth weight and size for gestational age, and maternal gestational-diabetes-mellitus (GDM) and gestational-weight gain (GWG). The 2009 WIC revision was associated with small reductions in birth weight (-3.52 g; 95 %CI, -4.75 to -2.30) and small-for-gestational-age (-0.08 % points; 95 %CI, -0.15, -0.01), and GWG (-0.05 pounds; 95 %CI, -0.09, -0.02). While the results were robust to most sensitivity tests, they were not for some and therefore should be interpreted cautiously. Disparities emerged in the impact on GDM and GWG across subgroups. The limited evidence of positive effects on infant and maternal health underscores the need for ongoing research to better understand the impact of the 2019 WIC revision, including implementation factors and program design, on downstream health.

The relative durability of eight non-overlapping human B cell sub-populations covering 100% of all human class-switched B cells was interrogated. Only two long-lived B cell populations persisted in the relative absence of antigen. In addition to canonical germinal center-derived switched-memory B cells with an IgD AB - CD27 AB - CXCR5 AB - phenotype, a second, non-canonical, but distinct memory population of IgD AB - CD27 AB - CXCR5 AB - DN1 B cells was also durable, exhibited a unique TP63-linked transcriptional and anti-apoptotic signature, had low levels of somatic hypermutation, but was more clonally expanded than canonical switched-memory B cells. DN1 B cells likely evolved to preserve immunological breadth and may represent the human counterparts of rodent extrafollicular memory B cells that, unlike canonical memory B cells, can enter germinal centers and facilitate B cell and antibody evolution.

Traditional assessment tools, such as the Revised NIOSH Lifting Equation (RNLE), require significant training and practice for deployment. This study presents an approach that integrates tactile gloves with computer vision (CV) to enhance the assessment of lifting-related injury risks, addressing the limitations of existing single-modality methods. Thirty-one participants performed 2747 lifting tasks across three lifting risk categories (LI < 1, 1 ≤ LI ≤ 2, LI > 2). Features including hand pressure measured by tactile gloves during each lift and 3D body poses estimated using CV algorithms from video recordings were combined and used to develop prediction models. The Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) model achieved an overall accuracy of 89 % in predicting the three lifting risk categories. The results highlight the potential for a real-time, non-intrusive risk assessment tool to assist ergonomic practitioners in mitigating musculoskeletal injury risks in workplace environments.

AB - Longitudinal WTC Health Program data, collected between July 2002 and December 2022, were used to describe the sample characteristics, diagnostic procedures, and treatment of consenting cohort members with self-reported GERD who reported incident GERD for a year or longer (n = 19,067). Cross-tabulations and binomial logistic regression, adjusted for confounders including comorbidities, assessed the associations with intermittent and resolved, compared with unresolved, GERD. AB - 12.6% of the study cohort reported intermittent GERD; 5.5% reported GERD resolution. Analyses indicated that most GERD resolution was reported by people of color and those with body mass index <25, and by cohort members who had longer postdiagnosis follow-up and implemented dietary modifications together with proton pump inhibitors or Program-approved antacids. GERD-certified members who underwent endoscopy, used medications without dietary modifications, or used bed head-elevation, and those with Barrett's disease (5.8%) or esophageal cancer (0.1%) may have had more severe GERD and reported little resolution. AB - The use of GERD services was consistent with clinical guidelines. Members' implementing dietary modifications in conjunction with proton pump inhibitors or Program-approved antacids reported more resolution and may have had less severe GERD. Earlier diagnosis and intervention might increase earlier therapeutic resolution.

AB - We estimated respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) and human metapneumovirus (hMPV) illness incidences among pregnant women and examined the association between antenatal RSV illness and preterm birth and small-for-gestational-age (SGA) infant. AB - Pregnant women aged ≥18 years were contacted twice weekly until the end of pregnancy to identify illness episodes with ≥1 of the following: myalgia, cough, runny nose/nasal congestion, sore throat, or difficulty breathing. Midturbinate nasal swabs were collected and tested for RSV and hMPV by real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction. Incidences were calculated. Cox proportional hazards regression was used to estimate hazard ratios (HRs) comparing participants with and without RSV illnesses for preterm birth (live birth before 37 weeks' gestation) and SGA infant. AB - Among 2764 participants, the median age was 29 years (IQR, 24-34), and the median enrollment gestational age was 10 weeks (IQR, 7-14). Overall, 71 (3%) and 29 (1%) cases of RSV and hMPV illnesses were identified, respectively. Among these, 30 (42%) and 10 (34%) participants sought medical care. Incidence rates per 10 000 pregnant woman-months were 57 (95% CI, 44-72) for RSV illnesses and 23 (95% CI, 16-33) for hMPV illnesses. Antenatal RSV illness in the third trimester conferred an increased risk of preterm birth (adjusted HR, 2.50; 95% CI, 1.04-6.00) but not SGA infant (adjusted HR, 0.79; 95% CI, .29-2.16). AB - Antenatal RSV illness was associated with some adverse antenatal outcomes. Pregnant women had a 0.4%-0.7% risk of RSV illness per pregnancy month, of which one-third resulted in medical visits.

AB - Greater immunosuppression is associated with an elevated risk of virus-associated cancers among people with HIV. We investigated racial and ethnic disparities in cancer risk among MSM with HIV (MSMWH). AB - Among MSMWH from 2001 to 2019 in the HIV/AIDS Cancer Match Study, we examined Kaposi sarcoma, non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL), liver cancer, anal cancer, and Hodgkin lymphoma. Within racial/ethnic groups, we estimated cancer rates relative to the general population with standardized incidence ratios (SIRs). We calculated incidence rate ratios (IRRs) comparing cancer risk between racial/ethnic groups among MSMWH using Poisson regression. We stratified these calculations according to prior AIDS diagnosis to assess whether differences persisted after accounting for AIDS. AB - We evaluated 358 023 MSMWH followed for 3.2 million person-years. The SIRs for KS for Hispanic/Latino MSMWH [887; 95% confidence interval (95% CI) = 833-943] and Black MSMWH (772; 95% CI = 727-819) were higher than White MSMWH (417; 95% CI = 392-443). Among MSMWH, risk of Kaposi sarcoma was higher for Hispanic/Latino and Black MSMWH compared to White MSMWH (IRR = 1.40 and 1.24, respectively). We did not detect differences in IRRs when stratified by AIDS diagnosis. While the SIR for anal cancer was lower among Black MSMWH (24.1; 95% CI = 22.3-26.0) compared to White MSMWH (38.4; 95% CI = 36.3-40.6), incidence was not statistically different (IRR = 0.98; 95% CI = 0.89-1.08). AB - Incidence rates and relative risks for several virus-related cancers were greater for Hispanic/Latino and Black MSMWH than White MSMWH, even when examined exclusively among those with or without AIDS. These disparities in cancer risk point to inequities in access to HIV care and disease burden.

AB - Chlamydia and gonorrhea are among the most commonly reported sexually transmitted infections in the United States. Testing for chlamydia and gonorrhea infection can be conducted by anatomic site (site-specific). Monitoring testing volume and positivity by anatomic site is important. AB - Using a large national laboratory dataset, we assessed chlamydia and gonorrhea test volume and positivity by anatomical site in patients aged 15 to 60 years. AB - The data contained 45 million tests each for chlamydia and gonorrhea for 2019 to 2023. Of chlamydia tests, 71.6% were for women. Among women, 0.4%, 1.5%, and 98.1% were performed on rectal, pharyngeal, and urogenital specimens; chlamydia positivity rates were 7.3%, 2.0%, and 4.3%, respectively. Among men, 10.5%, 13.7%, and 75.8% were performed on rectal, pharyngeal, and urogenital specimens; chlamydia positivity rates were 8.0%, 1.4%, and 6.3%, respectively. Among people aged 15 to 24 years, chlamydia positivity was 12.8% for rectal, 3.4% for pharyngeal, and 8.7% for urogenital among women, and 11.6%, 2.4%, and 12.2% among men, respectively. Gonorrhea testing volume overall and by age and sex was similar to that of chlamydia. Gonorrhea rectal, pharyngeal, and urogenital positivity rates were 3.2%, 2.4%, and 1.0% among women; 6.8%, 5.2%, and 3.3% among men; and 4.3%, 3.0%, and 1.6% among women aged 15 to 24 years, and 10.5%, 7.2%, and 4.6% among men aged 15 to 24 years, respectively. AB - Although men accounted for <30% of overall chlamydia and gonorrhea testing, they accounted for a majority of extragenital testing. High rates of chlamydia and gonorrhea positivity by specimen type among many demographic groups, especially for extragenital specimens from men and young people, highlight the importance of sexually transmitted infection prevention in the United States.

September 2025 | Sexually Transmitted Diseases, 2025, v. 52, no. 9

Since 2013, national trends in behavioral factors that increase sexually transmitted infection risk among adolescent and young adult (A/YA) females have been mixed (e.g., fewer sex partners, lower condom use). We used data from a national sample of A/YA females to examine racial disparities in Chlamydia trachomatis (CT) prevalence considering these ...

AB - Since 2013, national trends in behavioral factors that increase sexually transmitted infection risk among adolescent and young adult (A/YA) females have been mixed (e.g., fewer sex partners, lower condom use). We used data from a national sample of A/YA females to examine racial disparities in Chlamydia trachomatis (CT) prevalence considering these trends. AB - Using 2011-March 2020 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey data, we estimated the prevalence, and unadjusted and adjusted prevalence ratios of a positive CT urine test result among sexually experienced non-Hispanic Black (Black), Hispanic, non-Hispanic Other race (NHO), and non-Hispanic White (White) A/YA females. Percentages were categorized by race/ethnicity, and each was compared with the average of the other race/ethnic groups (e.g., Black vs. Hispanic, NHO, and White). Covariates included age group, health insurance coverage, number of sex partners, and condom use (both past year). AB - Overall, the prevalence of CT infection among A/YA females was 5.8% (95% confidence interval [CI], 4.5%-7.3%). The prevalence of CT was higher among Black females (vs. Hispanic, NHO, and White; 11.7%; 95% CI, 8.7%-15.2%) and lower among White females (vs. Black, Hispanic, and NHO; 3.2%; 95% CI, 1.7%-5.5%). Compared with the average CT prevalence for Hispanic, NHO, and White females, Black females had a higher adjusted CT prevalence (adjusted prevalence ratio, 2.48; 95% CI, 1.63-3.75). AB - Nationally, CT prevalence was 2.5 times as high among Black A/YA females than the average prevalence for Hispanic, NHO, and White females. Inclusion of behavioral sexually transmitted infection risk factors did not attenuate this association. Research incorporating sexual network-level factors associated with CT transmission may provide additional insights.
