Interplay between mobility, social participation, and symptom burden in advanced lung cancer

PURPOSE: Advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is associated with a high symptom burden that negatively impacts daily functioning and quality of life. A better understanding of the time course and relationships between these constructs can help tailor rehabilitation interventions in the context of disease progression. The objectives were to describe and compare the trajectories in mobility, participation, and symptom burden and to assess associations and explore predictors of mobility change. METHODS: Secondary data analysis of a longitudinal cohort study of 110 participants with NSCLC.

Hematological Malignancy Specific Patient-Reported Outcome Measure (HM-PRO): Construct Validity Study.

BACKGROUND: Validity is the ability of an instrument to measure what it claims to measure. It means the degree to which the empirical evidence supports the trustworthiness of interpretations based on the calculated scores. The hematological malignancy (HM) specific patient reported outcome measure (HM-PRO), is a newly developed instrument for use in daily clinical practice as well as in research. This study, provides the evidence for construct validity of the HM-PRO, specifically focusing on the convergent and divergent validity compared to the other established instruments used in hematology.

An Integrated Health-System Specialty Pharmacy Model for Coordinating Transitions of Care: Specialty Medication Challenges and Specialty Pharmacist Opportunities.

Adherence and persistence to specialty medications are necessary to achieve successful outcomes of costly therapies. The increasing use of specialty medications has exposed several unique barriers to certain specialty treatments' continuation. Integrated specialty pharmacy teams facilitate transitions in sites of care, between different provider types, among prescribed specialty medications, and during financial coverage changes. We review obstacles encountered within these types of transitions and the role of the specialty pharmacist in overcoming these obstacles. Case examples for each type

Hypercalcemia-Associated Hodgkin's Lymphoma Presenting as Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus: A Case Report.

Hodgkin's lymphoma is a malignancy of the lymphatic system that can rarely present with advanced-stage features such as spinal cord involvement and hypercalcemia. We present the case of a 63-year-old Caucasian male with advanced Hodgkin's lymphoma, presenting with hypercalcemia and symptoms resembling normal pressure hydrocephalus. The patient exhibited gait impairment, altered mental status, and urinary incontinence, forming the classic triad seen in normal pressure hydrocephalus. Laboratory findings revealed leukocytosis, anemia, hypercalcemia, and acute kidney injury. Imaging showed extensi

Mindfulness-Based Group Medical Visits: Strategies to Improve Equitable Access and Inclusion for Diverse Patients in Cancer Treatment.

BackgroundMindfulness-based interventions (MBIs) are supported by clinical practice guidelines as effective non-pharmacologic interventions for common symptoms experienced by cancer patients, including anxiety, depression, and fatigue. However, the evidence predominately derives from White breast cancer survivors. Racial and ethnic minority patients have less access to integrative oncology care and worse cancer outcomes. To address these gaps, we designed and piloted a series of mindfulness-based group medical visits (MB-GMVs), embedded into comprehensive cancer care, for racially and ethnical

Psychometric Properties of the Persian Self-Advocacy in Cancer Survivorship Scale (SACS-P) in Iran.

BackgroundSelf-advocacy is crucial for cancer patients, as it allows them to express their needs and engage in treatment decisions. This skill enhances the quality of care and life satisfaction. Accurately measuring self-advocacy and supporting patients with lower skills is essential to improving treatment outcomes and promoting patient-centered care. Accurate measurement of self-advocacy is vital for identifying patients with lower skills and providing support to enhance treatment outcomes and patient-centered care. This study aimed to investigate the psychometric properties of the Persian ve

Identification of actions to be taken by managers to facilitate the return to work of cancer survivors: Consensus between managers and cancer survivors.

BackgroundManagers are considered to be main stakeholders in the return to work (RTW) of cancer survivors. However, the perspectives of cancer survivors and managers differ on what managerial actions should be taken during the RTW of cancer survivors. This difference might put effective collaboration and successful RTW at risk. Therefore, this study aims to reach consensus among managers and cancer survivors on the managerial actions to be taken during the four different RTW phases of cancer survivors (i.e., Disclosure, Treatment, RTW plan, Actual RTW).MethodsThe Technique for Research of Info

Возвращение MS связано с появлением новых неврологических симптомов, связанных с MS, или ухудшением существующих симптомов по меньшей мере в течение 24 часов, по меньшей мере через 30 дней после начала последнего рецидива. Стресс, отсутствие сна, высокая/низкая температура, инфекционные заболевания, пропускаемые дозы препаратов для борьбы со СПИДом, высокие высоты, использование антибиотических средств, использование оральных противозачаточных средств и курение являются возможными

Воздействие множественных склерозов на распределение нагрузки, давление Плантара и диапазон движений на лодыжках у женщин.

Изменения в распределении статического давления на плантаре служат важными показателями походов и нарушений баланса у лиц с множественным склерозом (MS). Кроме того, выявление изменившихся моделей распределения нагрузки на плантар, наряду с ограничением дорсифлексии лодыжки, может служить ранним индикатором посттуральной нестабильности и походной дисфункции у женщин с НР. Цели: Оценка различий в статическом давлении на плантаре, распределении нагрузки и диапазоне движения дорсифлексии на лодыжках между женщинами, у которых диагностированы НР, и женщинами без каких-либо условий.

Fatigue Experience in Oncology; a Targeted Qualitative Literature Review and Novel Patient-Centric Conceptual Model.

IntroductionTraditionally, treatment endpoints in oncology have focused on increasing overall survival and progression-free survival. Although fatigue may be a meaningful outcome measure across different cancers, it is assessed less frequently. To explore the impact of fatigue on patients with cancer, confirm the importance of fatigue measurement and inform future measurement strategies in oncology, we aimed to characterise the patient experience of fatigue and the associated impact on how patients feel and function, including aspects of health-related quality of life (HRQoL).MethodsA targeted
