abstract: 'Background: The purpose of this study was to investigate whether there
|
|
|
|
is an association between stage of incident breast cancer (BC) and
|
|
|
|
personal income three years after diagnosis. The analysis further
|
|
|
|
considered whether the association differed among educational groups.
|
|
|
|
Methods: The study was based on information from Danish nationwide
|
|
|
|
registers. A total of 7,372 women aged 30-60 years diagnosed with BC,
|
|
|
|
48\% with metastasis, were compared to 213,276 controls. Generalised
|
|
|
|
linear models were used to estimate the effect of a cancer diagnosis on
|
|
|
|
personal gross income three years after diagnosis, stratified by
|
|
|
|
education and stage of cancer. The models were adjusted for income two
|
|
|
|
years prior to cancer diagnosis and demographic, geographic and
|
|
|
|
co-morbidity covariates.
|
|
|
|
Results: Adjusting for income two years prior to cancer diagnosis and
|
|
|
|
other baseline covariates (see above), cancer had a minor effect on
|
|
|
|
personal income three years after diagnosis. The effect of metastatic BC
|
|
|
|
was a statistically significant reduction in income three years after
|
|
|
|
diagnosis of -3.4\% (95\% CI -4.8;-2.0), -2.8\% (95\% CI -4.3;-1.3) and
|
|
|
|
-4.1 (95\% CI -5.9;-2.3) among further, vocational and low educated
|
|
|
|
women, respectively. The corresponding estimates for the effect of
|
|
|
|
localised BC were -2.5\% (95\% CI -3.8; -1.2), -1.6\% (95\% CI -3.0;
|
|
|
|
-0.2) and -1.7\% (95\% CI -3.7; 0.3); the latter estimate (for the
|
|
|
|
low-educated) was not statistically different from zero. We found no
|
|
|
|
statistically significant educational gradient in the effect of cancer
|
|
|
|
stage on income.
|
|
|
|
Conclusions: In a Danish context, the very small negative effect of BC
|
|
|
|
on personal income may be explained by different types of compensation
|
|
|
|
in low- and high-income groups. The public income transfers are equal
|
|
|
|
for all income groups and cover a relatively high compensation among
|
|
|
|
low- income groups. However, high-income groups additionally receive
|
|
|
|
pay-outs from private pension and insurance schemes, which typically
|
|
|
|
provide higher coverage for high-income workers.'
