Functional disabilities assessed included mobility disability (ie, serious difficulty walking or climbing stairs) and self-care disability (ie, self-reported difficulty dressing or bathing). Multivariable logistic regression models were used to assess the associations between functional disabilities and sociodemographic, lifestyle, and health-related factors. <\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>RESULTS<\/jats:title><jats:p> Cancer survivors tended to be older and non-Hispanic White than noncancer adults. The prevalence of mobility disability (27.9% v 13.4%) and self-care disability (7.4% v 3.8%) were higher among cancer survivors compared with noncancer adults. After multivariable adjustments, cancer survivors were more likely to report mobility (odds ratio [OR], 1.21 [95% CI, 1.16 to 1.26]) and self-care (OR, 1.19 [95% CI, 1.10 to 1.29]) disability than noncancer adults. The prevalence of mobility (34.9% v 26.3%) and self-care disability (9.8% v 6.7%) was higher in cancer survivors who were receiving active cancer treatment than in those who had completed cancer treatment. Higher prevalence of mobility and self-care disabilities was observed in cancer survivors who were racial\/ethnic minorities and with higher BMI, low physical activity, lower levels of education and\/or income, comorbidities, and those experiencing cancer\/treatment-related pain. Patterns of mobility and self-care disabilities varied across cancer types. <\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>CONCLUSION<\/jats:title><jats:p> Over a quarter of US cancer survivors reported mobility disability, and nearly 10% reported self-care disability, with patterns varying across cancer types and treatment status. Racial\/ethnic minorities, along with underserved groups and individuals with unhealthy lifestyles or comorbidities, were notably more affected by functional disabilities, underscoring the need for targeted disability prevention efforts. <\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1200\/jco.23.02536","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,4,4]],"date-time":"2024-04-04T20:01:12Z","timestamp":1712260872000},"page":"2257-2270","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1200\/crossmark","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":33,"title":["Prevalence and Cancer-Specific Patterns of Functional Disability Among US Cancer Survivors, 2017-2022"],"prefix":"10.1200","volume":"42","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0455-1171","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Chao","family":"Cao","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medical Oncology, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Boston, MA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1698-6666","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Lin","family":"Yang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cancer Epidemiology and Prevention Research, Alberta Health Services, Calgary, AB, Canada"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2400-2935","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Kathryn H.","family":"Schmitz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Hematology and Oncology, University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, PA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0633-3151","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jennifer A.","family":"Ligibel","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medical Oncology, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Boston, MA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"233","reference":[{"key":"b1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1158\/1055-9965.EPI-12-1356"},{"key":"b2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3322\/caac.21731"},{"key":"b3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/cncr.33913"},{"key":"b4","volume-title":"Diagnosing and Treating Adult Cancers and Associated Impairments","author":"National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine","year":"2021"},{"key":"b5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/jamanetworkopen.2021.30358"},{"key":"b6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/jamaoncol.2023.1180"},{"key":"b7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1200\/JCO.2017.77.5809"},{"key":"b8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/JTO.0b013e31819e77e8"},{"key":"b9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00520-021-06787-5"},{"key":"b10","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/jnci\/djad146"},{"key":"b11","volume-title":"Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System.
