Understanding the influence of social determinants of health on symptom reporting in pediatric cancer
PURPOSE: Children with cancer experience significant symptom burden, worsened by social deprivation. This study examines social determinants of health, including Appalachian residency, influence on symptom burden. METHODS: Caregiver-child dyads were recruited within 1 year of cancer treatment. Addresses were coded for social determinants of health (SDOH) measures: Area Deprivation Index (ADI), rurality, medically underserved areas (MUA), and Appa…
Oral medication adherence predicts cyclosporine blood level variability and graft versus host disease following pediatric allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant
BACKGROUND: Medication adherence is vital for optimal outcomes following pediatric allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT), but current assessment methods have limitations. Cyclosporine (CSA), an immunosuppressive drug used post-HCT, is routinely monitored in post-transplant care. Variability in CSA blood levels has been linked to adherence in other pediatric populations, and the medication level variability index (MLVI) has shown strong a…
