Despite survival improvements, there is a paucity of data on neurocognitive outcomes in neuroblastoma survivors. This study addresses this literature gap....
Neurocognitive impairments in survivors were compared to sibling controls from the Childhood Cancer Survivor Study (CCSS) using the CCSS Neurocognitive Questionnaire. Impaired emotional regulation, or...
Survivors (N = 837; median [range] age, 25 [17-58] years, age diagnosed, 1 [0-21] years) were compared to sibling controls (N = 728; age, 32 [16-43] years). Survivors had higher risk of impaired task ...
Neuroblastoma survivors report neurocognitive impairment impacting adult milestones. Identified health conditions and treatment exposures can be targeted to improve outcomes....
Survival rates continue to improve in patients with neuroblastoma. There is a lack of information regarding neurocognitive outcomes in neuroblastoma survivors; most studies examined survivors of leuke...
Insomnia, sleep apnoea and sleep loss are risk factors for the development of cardiovascular diseases. Most research on sleep disturbances includes patients with heart failure, while the role of sleep...
The aim of this study was to investigate registered nurses' perceptions of SCA survivors' sleep, both in hospital and after discharge....
This was an explorative interview study with a phenomenographic approach. Nineteen registered nurses (RNs) varying in age, sex and years in the profession participated....
The nurses' perceptions of SCA survivors' sleep were categorized as: "The observer - noticing behaviours, emotions and habits of the patient that affect sleep", "The oblivious witness - attitudes that...
Although the nurses knew that SCA survivors suffered from poor sleep, they failed to reflect on the consequences for the patient. Nurses' feelings of insufficient knowledge about sleep, as well as the...
Nurses need increased knowledge and training to enable them to detect subtle signs of sleep problems in SCA survivors....
To determine the differences between the quality of life for sepsis and nonsepsis survivors, factors affecting the quality of life for sepsis survivors, and their changes over time....
A prospective longitudinal study with a quantitative comparative design....
A university hospital in the greater Tokyo area of Japan....
The study included 41 and 40 patients in the sepsis and nonsepsis groups, respectively....
None....
Health-related quality of life (HRQOL), independence in activities of daily living (ADL), stress levels, and spirituality were compared between the sepsis and nonsepsis groups at ICU discharge, hospit...
HRQOL of sepsis survivors was significantly lower than that of nonsepsis survivors. ADL and stress influenced HRQOL. The study suggests the importance of ADL training and stress alleviation during the...
Many clinical studies evaluate the benefit of a treatment based on both survival and other continuous/ordinal clinical outcomes, such as quality of life scores. In these studies, when subjects die bef...
Therapeutic advances in the treatment of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) have increased the number of survivors but have promoted the development of long-term side effects, the best documented of w...
Intimate partner violence (IPV) and food security are two leading public health issues that disproportionately impact women in the United States. Despite this connection, the relationship between IPV ...
To compare relationships between self-perceived weight and self-rated health (SRH) between cancer survivors and non-cancer survivors....
A cross-sectional study based on the 2014-2019 Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey was conducted for the associations of self-perceived weight status, measured BMI categories, and c...
Compared to the comparison group (those who were normal weight and self-perceived as average weight in non-cancer survivors), adjusted odds for poorer SRH were higher in cancer survivors and non-cance...
According to actual weight status, the association between self-perceived weight and SRH may differ between cancer survivors and non-cancer survivors....
To examine the needs of adult survivors of critical illness through a lens of palliative care....
A qualitative study of adult survivors of critical illness using semi-structured interviews and framework analysis....
Participants were recruited from the post-intensive care unit clinic of a mid-Atlantic academic medical center in the United States....
Seventeen survivors of critical illness aged 34-80 (median, 66) participated in the study. The majority of patients were female (64.7 %, n = 11) with a median length of index ICU stay of 12 days (inte...
Our findings suggest that palliative care components such as symptom management, goals of care discussions, care coordination, and spiritual and social support may assist in the assessment and treatme...
Physical inactivity and obesity increase risk for breast cancer recurrence and cardiovascular death; inflammation is hypothesized to mediate these associations....
In a four-arm randomized controlled trial, 318 breast cancer survivors with overweight or obesity were randomized to exercise alone, weight loss alone, exercise plus weight loss, or control for 12 mon...
Compared with control, exercise alone increased ICAM-1 (9.3%; 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.6-16.9) and VCAM-1 (8.6%; 95% CI = 2.6-14.5) but did not change CRP or SAA. Compared with control, weight...
In breast cancer survivors with overweight or obesity, weight loss or exercise plus weight loss reduced measures of inflammation that are associated with breast cancer recurrence and cardiovascular de...
