80 Background: Disparities in health outcomes exist among racial and ethnic groups in the United States, notably in patients with colon cancer. Metastasis is the primary cause of cancer morbidity and mortality. However, data on the metastasis risks and clinical outcomes on hospitalized individuals with colon cancer is still limited. Therefore, we aim to assess the association between metastatic colon cancer and racial differences. Methods: We analyzed the 2020 U.S. National Inpatient Sample (NIS) to explore patients who have colon 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 80,130 patients with primary diagnosis of colon cancer at discharge. The mean age was 67.4 years; 49.7% were female. Caucasians accounted for 69.3%, with African Americans at 13.3% and Hispanics at 8.2%. 15% of the patients had liver metastasis, whereas 22% had lung metastasis. In a multivariate analysis adjusting for patient, COVID-19, chemotherapy usage and hospital factors, African Americans had higher risk of lung metastasis (aOR 1.22; 95%CI (1.07, 1.40), p = 0.003), higher risk of liver metastasis (aOR 1.51; 95%CI (1.31, 1.74), p = 0.021) and longer length of stay (b = 0.95; 95%CI (0.56, 1.33), p = 0.001). Hispanics also had higher risk of lung (aOR 1.22, p < 0.05) and liver metastasis (aOR 1.24, p = 0.021). 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. To establish a causal relationship between races, metastasis, and mortality in patients with colon cancer, further longitudinal research is necessary. [Table: see text]

213 Background: Lung cancer patient often encounter disparities in health outcomes, especially in difference racial and ethnic groups. Metastasis is the primary cause of cancer morbidity and mortality. However, data on the metastasis risks and clinical outcomes on hospitalized individuals with lung cancer is still limited. Therefore, we aim to assess the association between metastatic lung cancer and racial differences. Methods: We analyzed the 2020 U.S. National Inpatient Sample (NIS) to explore patients who have lung 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 103,335 patients with primary diagnosis of lung and bronchus cancer at discharge. The mean age was 68.9 years; 50.5% were female. Caucasians accounted for 74.3%, with African Americans at 12.1% and Hispanics at 4.6%. 10% of the patients had brain metastasis, whereas 14% had bone metastasis. In a multivariate analysis adjusting for patient, COVID-19, chemotherapy usage and hospital factors, African Americans had higher risk of brain metastasis (aOR 1.18; 95%CI (1.02, 1.37), p = 0.002), higher risk of bone metastasis (aOR 1.16; 95%CI (1.02, 1.33), p = 0.025), higher risk of mortality (aOR 1.21; 95% CI (1.01, 1.45), p = 0.039) and longer length of stay (b = 0.85; 95%CI (0.55, 1.16), p = 0.001). Hispanics also had higher risk of brain (aOR 1.36, p < 0.05) and prolonged length of stay (b 0.79, p < 0.005). 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. Further longitudinal research is necessary to establish a causal relationship between races, metastasis, and mortality in patients with lung cancer. [Table: see text]

182 Background: Recent data showed the detrimental effects of COVID-19 infection on various conditions, resulting in a wide range of health disparities and worsening outcomes, as well as an increased burden of cost. However, limited information exists on the impacts of COVID-19 infection on the most commonly admitted with primary cancer, regarding clinical and economic impact. Methods: We analyzed the 2020 U.S. National Inpatient Sample (NIS) to investigate the effects of COVID-19 infection on cases primarily admitted with the most common admitted with primary cancer, using relevant ICD-10 CM codes. 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 the cost of hospitalization and length of stay. Statistical significance was established at a p-value of 0.05. Results: We estimated 919,104 hospitalizations with a primary discharge diagnosis of cancer conditions. Of these, 0.54% (4,985/919,104) had a concurrent diagnosis of COVID-19 infection and 46.1% were female. The mean age was 63.6 years old and Caucasians dominated the majority of the records (69.7%), followed by Hispanics (13.1%). In a multivariable logistic and linear regression model adjusting for patient and hospital factors, COVID-19 infection was associated with higher in-hospital mortality for all cancer conditions and other outcome. The txable denotes all-type and subpopulation analysis. Conclusions: In conclusion, our study encompasses all most common admitted primary cancer conditions and shed light how COVID-19 infection is associated with higher in-hospital mortality, prolonged hospital stays, and increased economic burden in various condition. Future longitudinal studies are warranted to comprehensively assess the long-term health sequelae in this population. [Table: see text]
