Navigating Legal Labyrinths: Health Communication and the Experiences of Immigrant Healthcare Professionals in the US Healthcare System
No full textThis study examines how immigrant healthcare professionals experience immigration-related stress, cultural tension, and communication demands within U.S. clinical environments. A survey of 55 clinicians at Wyckoff Heights Medical Center showed varied levels of cultural conflict and socioeconomic worry, as well as frequent adjustments to communication styles. While many participants reported feeling culturally stable, a significant portion experienced tension or uncertainty tied to immigration status. These findings highlight the wide range of adaptation experiences among immigrant clinicians, supporting the need for institutional awareness and targeted support.

First mammography screening participation and breast cancer incidence and mortality
No full textThis population-based cohort study evaluated the long-term relationship between initial participation in mammography screening and subsequent breast cancer outcomes among approximately 432,000 women in Stockholm, Sweden. Women were invited to their first screening between 1991 and 2020 at ages 40 or 50 and followed for up to 25 years through national health registries. Overall, 32% did not attend their initial screening. Non-attenders were significantly less likely to participate in later screening rounds and were more likely to be diagnosed with advanced disease, showing 1.5-fold higher odds of stage III and more than 3.5-fold higher odds of stage IV breast cancer compared with attenders. Although cumulative 25-year breast cancer incidence was similar between groups (7.6–7.8%), breast cancer–specific mortality was markedly higher among non-attenders (adjusted HR 1.40; 95% CI 1.26–1.55). These findings indicate that missing the first mammography screening is associated with delayed detection and worse survival, underscoring the importance of promoting early participation as a key strategy in population-based breast cancer
