Background: The self-perception of one's mental and physical health (MH and PH) is of utmost importance for individuals diagnosed with cancer. This study focuses on the assessment of self-perceived mental and physical health (MH and PH) in individuals diagnosed with cancer. The Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) framework is used to measure health outcomes, with PROMIS-PH measuring physical well-being and PROMIS-MH measuring mental health status. The study aims to evaluate self-reported mental and physical health of individuals with common cancers in the All of Us database, which includes over 414,000 participants in the US who have completed PROMIS-PH and PROMIS-MH surveys. Methods: We included participants from All of Us dataset version 6, which includes survey data collected between May 6, 2018 and January 1, 2022 who had available electronic health records data (N = 258,188). From the survey data, we calculated PROMIS-PH and PROMIS-MH score in participants with diagnosis code (ICD9/ICD10) of any cancers (N = 36377), breast (N = 5172), prostate (N = 5234), colon (N = 2366), and lung cancer (N = 2338). The study compared scores each cancer groups using Wilcoxon rank sum test, with a significance level of P < 0.05. Analysis was performed in the web-based platform Jupyter Notebook using programming language R. Results: The study calculated PROMIS-MH and PROMIS-PH scores based on two questions, with response options valued from 1 to 5. The higher the score, the higher the level of perceived mental and physical health. Results showed that the mean PROMIS-MH score for all cancers was 7.38, with the highest score of 7.67 in prostate cancer and the lowest score of 7.10 in lung cancer. The mean PROMIS-PH score for all cancers was 7.31, with the highest score of 7.62 in prostate cancer and the lowest score of 6.71 in lung cancer. Prostate cancer group showed the highest PROMIS-PH and PROMIS-MH scores among the four cancer groups (P < 0.05), while participants with lung cancer reported the lowest PROMIS-PH and PROMIS-MH scores (P < 0.05). Additionally, breast cancer had higher PROMIS-MH and PROMIS-PH scores compared to all cancers (P < 0.05), while lung cancer had lower PROMIS-MH and PROMIS-PH scores (P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in PROMIS-MH score between all cancers and colon cancer. Conclusions: These results suggest that individuals with lung cancer may have a lower level of perceived mental and physical health compared to those with other cancers. Further research is needed to understand the underlying causes of these differences and to evaluate the effectiveness of interventions aimed at improving the well-being of individuals with cancer.
