Overview

Cross-sectional analysis reveals tobacco and alcohol use patterns in SGM cancer survivors, highlighting urbanicity as a significant factor.

Key Points

  • Higher alcohol consumption is associated with Black/African American SGM cancer survivors, with an adjusted odds ratio of 2.36.
  • Tobacco use does not significantly differ by residence but declines with age, showing an adjusted odds ratio of 0.97.
  • The study reveals urbanicity impacts alcohol use, emphasizing the need for targeted health interventions for SGM populations.
  • Graduate education and health insurance correlate with lower tobacco use in SGM cancer survivors, indicating socio-economic influences.
