TI  - A population-based study comparing HRQoL among breast, prostate, and colorectal 
      cancer survivors to propensity score matched controls, by cancer type, and 
      gender.

AB  - BACKGROUND: Objectives were to compare health-related quality of life (HRQoL) 
      between breast cancer survivors, prostate cancer survivors (PCS), and colorectal 
      cancer survivors (CCS) to matched controls, stratified by short and long-term 
      survivors, by cancer type, and gender. METHODS: By using the 2009 Behavioral Risk 
      Factor Surveillance System, propensity scores matched three controls to adult 
      survivors >1 year past diagnosis (N = 11,964) on age, gender, race/ethnicity, 
      income, insurance status, and region of the USA Chi-square tests and logistic 
      regression models compared HRQoL outcomes (life satisfaction, activity 
      limitations, sleep quality, emotional support, general, physical, and mental 
      health). RESULTS: Although all cancer survivors reported worse general health 
      (p < 0.000) and more activity limitations (p < 0.004) than controls, these 
      disparities decreased among long-term survivors. Short-term PCS and male CCS were 
      more likely to report worse outcomes across additional domains of HRQoL than 
      controls, but PCS were 0.61, 0.63, and 0.70 times less likely to report activity 
      limitations, fair/poor general health, and 1-15 bad physical health days in the 
      past month than male CCS. Breast cancer survivors and female CCS were 2.12 and 
      3.17, 1.58 and 1.86, and 1.49 and 153, respectively, times more likely to report 
      rarely/never receiving needed emotional support, 1-15 bad mental health days in 
      the past month, and not receiving enough sleep 1-15 days in the past month than 
      PCS and male CCS. CONCLUSIONS: Cancer survivors experience worse HRQoL than 
      similar individuals without a history of cancer and the severity of affected 
      HRQoL domains differ by time since diagnosis, cancer type, and gender.
