CGA can be conducted in an outpatient cancer community using a self-report format. Despite the fact that this population varied demographically across age groups and is limited to veterans, this study demonstrated remarkable similarities between younger and older cancer patients in terms of functional status, health states, and quality of life.

Older male cancer patients with mouth or tooth problems making it hard to eat are more likely to have a lower QoL, poorer emotional health, lower levels of physical functioning, and greater pain than patients without these problems.
