Insurance Status at Time of Diagnosis |
||||
---|---|---|---|---|
Private | Medicaid/Uninsured | Medicare, <65 y | Medicare, ≥65 y | |
Overall survival, all-cause mortality | ||||
No. of deaths | 145 | 50 | 39 | 225 |
No. at risk | 547 | 128 | 81 | 475 |
Adjusted HR (95% CI) a | 1 [reference] | 1.50 (1.07–2.11) | 1.69 (1.16–2.48) | 1.22 (0.85–2.11) |
Relapse-free survival | ||||
No. of recurrences | 175 | 39 | 34 | 158 |
No. at risk | 547 | 128 | 81 | 475 |
Adjusted HR (95% CI) a | 1 [reference] | 0.93 (0.65–1.35) | 1.19 (0.80–1.77) | 0.95 (0.65–1.77) |
CI indicates confidence interval; HR, hazard ratio.
HRs and corresponding 95% CIs are adjusted for age, gender, race, smoking, alcohol consumption, tumor site, treatment, stage at diagnosis, and socioeconomic status (based on occupational prestige scores).
