Summary
The Oncology Nursing Society developed research priorities to address structural racism and cancer care disparities. These priorities aim to improve health equity in oncology nursing research, practice, and workforce development.
Area of Science:
- Oncology Nursing
- Health Equity Research
- Health Disparities
Background:
- The Oncology Nursing Society (ONS) recognized the need to expand its research agenda to address racism and cancer care disparities.
- Structural racism and health inequities are significant issues within oncology nursing practice and research.
Purpose of the Study:
- To develop and refine research priorities focused on addressing structural racism and cancer care disparities.
- To identify critical gaps in the literature to guide future oncology nursing research.
- To inform strategies for improving health equity and reducing racism in oncology nursing.
Main Methods:
- A multimethod consensus-building approach was employed.
- A panel of oncology nurse scientists and equity scholars conducted a rapid literature review.
- Consultations with experts, oncology nurses, and funding agency priorities were incorporated.
Main Results:
- Critical gaps in the existing literature were identified.
- Three priority areas for oncology nursing research were established.
- These priorities encompass research, practice, and workforce development.
Conclusions:
- The identified research priorities will guide future studies to develop methods and tools.
- The goal is to increase health equity and reduce structural racism in oncology nursing.
- This work informs oncology nursing practice, research, education, policy, and advocacy.

The person's health status fluctuates continually, varying from being in good health to becoming ill and returning to being healthy. To understand the concept of illness prevention, there are two models. First, the health-illness continuum model is a graphic representation of an individual's wellness. It states that a person is considered healthy in the absence of physical disease and the presence of good emotional health.

Biases can arise at various stages of research, from study design and data collection to analysis and interpretation. Recognizing and addressing these biases is essential to ensure the validity and reliability of epidemiological findings.Broadly speaking, biases in epidemiology fall into three main categories: selection bias, information bias, and confounding. A more detailed description of possible biases is:

Health promotion allows a person to control the determinants of health, resulting in an improved health status. It enhances the quality of life and reduces premature deaths. Health promotion and illness prevention programs help people make beneficial choices to reduce the risk of disease and disabilities. There are three health promotion and illness prevention levels: primary, secondary, and tertiary prevention.

A model is a theoretical way to understand a concept or an idea. Models can overcome barriers to health regardless of diverse economic and cultural backgrounds. In addition, models make the task easier by providing different ways to approach complex issues. There are two major health promotion models: the health belief model and the health promotion model.

01:25Strategies for Assessing and Addressing Confounding
174
Confounding is a critical issue in epidemiological studies, often leading to misleading conclusions about associations between exposures and outcomes. It occurs when the relationship between the exposure and the outcome is mixed with the effects of other factors that influence the outcome. Given that, addressing confounding is of high importance for drawing accurate inferences in research.
Confounding can be addressed at both the design phase of a study and through analytical methods after data...
