Whether abstracts, articles, clinical notes or in conversation, treating patients w/respect when referring to them & their disease fosters respect, dignity & empathy, & recognizes complex factors at play - all essential ingredients for creating meaningful change! #WordsMatter

For me, this @TheLancetPH viewpoint represents the phoenix rising after a period of significant moral distress witnessing inadequate supports for grievers in health systems and in the community during the #mentalhealthcrisis of the past few years. We need to change the system

This was a fun paper to put together, and I'm excited to see it out in print! tl;dr Area-level SES didn't improve prediction of quality of life over individual-level variables alone. But if you don't have individual-level SES, area-level SES was a pretty good proxy! #EpiTwitter
Area-level variables affect outcomes for #CancerSurvivors, but do area-level or individual-level factors matter more? This paper from @DrClaireC @heatherdv_phd @KristiGravesVA @ReeveBryce and colleagues tries to answer that question! Read more ⤵️ https://t.co/gNY8gyFGVn
