16 Background: Breast cancer is the most frequently diagnosed cancer and the leading cause of cancer death in females worldwide. Recent data showed the detrimental effects of COVID-19 infection on other neoplasm conditions, causing increased mortality rates and complications. However, limited information exists on the specific impacts of COVID-19 infection in patients hospitalized for breast cancer, as well as racial impact differences. Methods: We analyzed the 2020 U.S. National Inpatient Sample (NIS) to investigate the effects of COVID-19 infection on cases primarily admitted due to breast cancers. Adjusted odds ratios (aORs) for specified outcomes were calculated through multivariable logistic and linear regression analyses. The primary outcome was inpatient mortality, with secondary outcomes including system-based complications. Statistical significance was established at a p-value of 0.05. Results: We identified 25,559 patients with a primary discharge diagnosis of breast cancer. The mean age was 59.7 years; 99.28% were female. In the non-COVID group, Caucasians accounted for 60%, followed by African Americans (19%). However, in the COVID-19 group, African Americans predominated with 41%, followed by Caucasian (35%) (p-value = 0.05). Of these, 0.52% (85/25,559) had a concurrent diagnosis of COVID-19 infection. In a survey multivariable logistic and linear regression model adjusting for patient and hospital factors, COVID-19 infection was associated with higher in-hospital mortality (aOR 6.07; 95% CI (1.26, 29.13), p = 0.024), higher mean length of stay(b 5.22; 95% CI (2.08,8.36) p =0.001), acute respiratory failure (aOR 4.88; 95% CI (1.51, 15.77), p = 0.008), coagulopathy (aOR 8.38; 95% CI (2.19, 32.02), p=0.002) and SIRS (aOR 6.38; 95% CI (1.25, 32.50), p = 0.026). We observed non-significant, but increased, risks of acute kidney injury (AKI), shock, and sepsis, as well as total hospitalization costs in COVID-19-positive patients. Conclusions: In conclusion, our study underscores that COVID-19 infection is associated with higher in-hospital mortality and other clinical outcomes in breast cancer patients, as well as, a disproportionated impact against some races. Future longitudinal studies are warranted to comprehensively assess the causation of these clinical outcomes in this population.

124 Background: Literature review has found profound disparities in clinical outcomes, for patient with ovarian cancer. Metastasis is the primary cause of cancer morbidity and mortality. However, data on the metastasis risks on hospitalized individuals with ovarian cancer is still limited. Therefore, we aim to assess the association between metastatic ovarian cancer and racial differences using large database analysis. Methods: We analyzed the 2020 U.S. National Inpatient Sample (NIS) to explore patients who have ovarian cancer as the primary diagnosis. Additionally, we identified evidence of metastasis, as recorded by ICD-10-CM. Adjusted odds ratios (aORs) for specified outcomes were calculated through multivariable logistic and linear regression analyses. The primary outcome was racial differences in organ metastasis and secondary outcomes included mortality and length of stay. Statistical significance was established at p-value of 0.05. Results: We identified 19,789 patients with primary diagnosis of ovarian cancer at discharge. The mean age was 61.6 years. Caucasians accounted for 68.3%, with Hispanics at 11.1 % and African Americans at 9.7%. We found that 7% of the patients had liver metastasis. In a multivariate analysis adjusting for patient, COVID-19, chemotherapy usage and hospital factors, African Americans and Hispanics had higher risk of liver metastasis (aOR 1.95; 95%CI (1.32, 2.88), p = 0.001) (aOR 1.78; 95%CI (1.19, 2.66), p = 0.004). We also observed reduced length of stay for Asian Americans (b = -0.74; 95%CI (-1.31, -0.17), p = 0.011). We observed an increase in risk of metastasis and mortality but non-statistically significant in some parameters and races, as shown in table provided. Conclusions: In conclusion, our study revealed that racial difference is associated with higher risk of metastasis, as well as other outcomes. More studies following patients over time are needed to determine if race directly affects how ovarian cancer spreads and other clinical outcomes. [Table: see text]

AbstractBackground and AimIn recent years, there has been a growing incidence of gastrointestinal cancer in young individuals. Despite its significant morbidity and mortality, research on upper gastrointestinal (UGI) cancer in young populations has been relatively limited. Therefore, studies on the epidemiological changes of this cancer are needed.MethodsUsing data from the Global Burden of Disease Study 2019, we examined the incidence, death, and disability‐adjusted life years (DALYs) from UGI cancers in the young, namely, early‐onset esophageal cancer (EOEC) and early‐onset gastric cancer (EOGC). These results were stratified by sex, geographical region, country, and sociodemographic index.ResultsThere was a total of 185 140 cases, 120 289 deaths, and 5.70 million DALYs attributable to early‐onset UGI cancers globally. From 2010 to 2019, the global incidence, death, and DALYs rates of early‐onset UGI cancers decreased. In contrast, the incidence rates increased in both EOEC (+1.15%) and EOGC (+0.21%) in the Eastern Mediterranean region.ConclusionsOver the past decade, the burden of UGI cancer in the young has decreased. However, it has increased in the Eastern Mediterranean region. Further research to elucidate the attributable risk factors in this population is warranted.
