Long-term health-related quality of life among adolescent and young adult breast cancer survivors
AYA breast cancer survivors experience significantly compromised long-term HRQoL compared to an age-matched normative population. These results highlight the need for tailored follow-up care and long-term support, as well as the importance of shared decision-making about the benefits and risks of treatments before initiation
Health-related quality of life (HRQoL) after different axillary treatments in women with breast cancer
Physical and psychosocial wellbeing decreased significantly for ALND with radiotherapy compared to APS alone. Shared decision making and expectation management pre-treatment could be strengthened by discussing arm symptoms per axillary treatment with the patient
Identifying health-related quality of life cut-off scores that indicate the need for supportive care in young adults with cancer
Cut-offs with adequate sensitivity were calculated for nine EORTC QLQ-C30 scales for use with YAs with cancer. Cut-offs are key to interpretability and use of the EORTC QLQ-C30 in routine care to identify patients with supportive care need
Adolescent and Young Adult Cancer Patients’ Supportive Care Needs—A Social Work Perspective
The purpose of this study was to identify (unmet) needs from a social work perspective of Adolescents and Young Adults (AYAs; aged eighteen to thirty-nine years) treated for cancer. The biopsychosocial model was used as framework to investigate the (unmet) needs of the AYAs. AYAs within two years after their cancer diagnosis were invited to participate in an interview. In addition, case studies were presented. Nine AYAs agreed to participate in t…
Assessing measurement invariance in the EORTC QLQ-C30
Given only a few instances of non-invariance in our study, there is reason to be confident that valid conclusions can be drawn from between-group comparisons of QLQ-C30 latent means as operationalized in our study. Nonetheless, further research into MI between other subgroups for the QLQ-C30 (i.e., treatment effects and ethnicity) is warranted. We stress the importance of including MI evaluations in the development and validation of measurement i…
Assessing health-related quality of life in cancer survivors
Information support, illness perceptions, and distress in survivors of differentiated thyroid cancer
Survivors of differentiated thyroid cancer report significant distress. This study examines illness perceptions as mediating the relationship between information support and distress among survivors of differentiated thyroid cancer. Data were obtained from the Patient Reported Outcomes Following Initial Treatment and Long-term Evaluation of Survivorship registry. Model results revealed that greater information support was associated with better i…
Cancer survivors not participating in observational patient-reported outcome studies have a lower survival compared to participants
Cancer survivors not participating in observational PROs research significantly differ from participants, with respect to socio-demographic and clinical characteristics, and survival. Their HRQoL scores may be systematically lower compared to participants. Therefore, even in PRO studies with relatively high participation rates, observed outcomes may represent the healthier patient with better outcomes
Employment and insurance outcomes and factors associated with employment among long-term thyroid cancer survivors
Many thyroid cancer survivors face problems when obtaining a life insurance, and older, fatigued, and lower educated thyroid cancer survivors may be at risk for not having employment
