2019, Journal of Stroke and Cerebrovascular DiseasesCitation Excerpt :CCI is the most extensively studied comorbidity index for predicting mortality.17,18 Predictive validity of CCI has been confirmed by reports based on various outcome criteria, such as mortality, disability, readmissions, and length of stay.18-22 High CCI score has been used to predict poor outcome and death in patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage and ischemic stroke.23
Long-term outcomes among African-American and white women with breast cancer: What is the impact of comorbidity?
2014, Journal of Geriatric OncologyCitation Excerpt :Multiple potential causes of disparity have been identified including biological variations in tumor characteristics,4–7 healthcare access-related differences in screening8 and treatment,9–12 as well as cultural and psychosocial factors.13,14 Comorbidity, the presence of concurrent diseases in addition to the index condition, has been associated with survival disparities by race15–18 but few studies comparing African–American with white breast cancer survivors have been able to examine 10-year mortality or longer.15 Functional measures are associated with comorbidity and functional limitations at the time of breast cancer diagnosis and following initial treatment have been associated with a number of adverse outcomes among breast cancer survivors.19–22
