摘要: Family health history (FHH) is the most basic form of genomic information. Although public efforts have been made to promote FHH collection, empirical data on extent which community residents in rural areas actively collect limited. Therefore, we examined rates collection a community-based sample South Carolina residents. We conducted structured telephone survey random black and white Respondents were asked if they had ever collected from relatives using an item developed by Centers for Disease Control Prevention. Overall, 42 % respondents reported that their FHH. Blacks significantly more likely than whites bivariate analysis, but race did not significant association with multivariate model (OR = 1.36, 95 % CI = 0.79, 2.35, p = 0.26). The likelihood collecting was increased among whose last medical visit occurred past year compared those 1 year ago (OR = 2.00, CI = 1.12, 3.56, p = 0.02). In addition, older reduced (OR = 0.69, CI = 0.53, 0.90, p = .01). Lastly, women about twice as men (OR = 1.83, 2.99, Greater are needed increase information; these may need target men, elderly, individuals who recent visit.
