Artikel 'The quality of patient-centred care: haematological cancer survivors’ perceptions' (2015)

Objective: Patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) that assess the quality of patient-centred cancer care have failed to measure all six patient-centredness dimensions endorsed by the Institute
of Medicine (IOM). This study is the first to use the Quality of Patient-Centered Cancer Care (QPCCC) measure that covers all six IOM patient-centredness dimensions to examine haematological cancer survivors’ perceptions of care and characteristics associated with perceived quality of care.

Artikel 'Predictors of quality of life of cancer patients, their children, and partners' (2015)

Objective: The objective of this study is to assess the quality of life (QOL) of cancer patients and their family members over 1-year period post therapy.

Artikel 'Predictors of psychological functioning in children with cancer: disposition and cumulative life stressors' (2015)

Objective: This study examined psychological functioning in children with a history of cancer and a matched sample of healthy peers, while exploring the roles of disposition and stressful life events.

Method: Participants were 255 children with a history of cancer and 101 demographically matched children (8–17 years). Children completed measures of depression, anxiety, and posttraumatic stress
symptoms (PTSS); history of stressful life events; and dispositional factors, including optimism and a five-factor personality measure.

Artikel 'Main outcomes of the Move More for Life Trial: a randomised controlled trial examining the effects of tailored-print and targeted-print materials for promoting physical activity among post-treatment breast cancer survivors' (2015)

Background: Participation in physical activity can improve the health outcomes of breast cancer survivors. To impact public health, broad-reaching sustainable interventions that promote physical activity are needed.

Purpose: To evaluate the efficacy of two distance-based interventions for promoting physical activity among breast cancer survivors compared with a standard recommendation control.

Artikel 'Population-, intervention- and methodology-related characteristics of clinical trials impact exercise efficacy during adjuvant therapy for breast cancer: a meta-regression analysis' (2015)

Objective: Significant heterogeneity was highlighted in recent meta-analyses examining exercise effects in cancer patients, suggesting that some characteristics may moderate exercise efficacy.

Artikel 'The relationship between age, anxiety, and depression in older adults with cancer' (2015)

Objective: In older men with prostate cancer, aging is associated with reduced anxiety and increased depression. The purpose of this study was to examine the association among age, anxiety, and depression
in a cohort of older adults receiving chemotherapy.

Methods: This is a secondary analysis of a prospective longitudinal study investigating chemotherapy toxicity in older adults with cancer. Baseline data (pre-chemotherapy) included: age, sociodemographics,

Artikel 'Perceived cognitive impairment in Chinese patients with breast cancer and its relationship with post-traumatic stress disorder symptoms and fatigue' (2015)

Objective: Clinical reports have shown that adjuvant chemotherapy has a negative impact on perceived cognitive impairment (PCI) of patients with breast cancer; however, evidence concerning the effects of psychological factors such as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms on PCI is limited, especially in relation to Chinese patients with breast cancer. This research investigated the associations between psychological factors and PCI in Chinese women with breast cancer.

Artikel 'Lifestyle factors associated with cognitive functioning in breast cancer survivors' (2015)

Objective: Weight, physical activity, and sleep are modifiable lifestyle factors that impact cognitive functioning in noncancer populations but have yet to be examined in cancer survivors. The aim of the study was to assess the relationship of obesity, physical activity, and sleep, with cognitive functioning among breast cancer survivors.

Methods: Participants were 136 early-stage postmenopausal breast cancer survivors who completed an assessment of neuropsychological testing, height, weight, physical activity, and sleep. Linear

Artikel 'Quality of life in minor siblings of childhood leukemia survivors, long-term after diagnosis: A LEA study (for Leucemies de l’Enfant et de l’Adolescent—childhood and adolescent leukemia)' (2015)

Objective: The objectives of this study are to assess the quality of life (QoL) of siblings of childhood leukemia survivors in comparison with population controls and to identify determinants of sibling’s QoL.

Methods: The nearest-aged siblings (8–17 years) of minor CLS participating in the French LEA cohort (Childhood and Adolescent Leukemia), at the Marseilles center, were included. Siblings’ QoL was self-

Artikel 'Prevalence, associated factors and source of support concerning supportive care needs among Japanese cancer survivors' (2015)

Background: The current study aimed to describe cancer survivors’ supportive care needs in Japan, to identify associated factors of unmet needs, and to describe the source of support that are preferred and actually used by cancer survivors.
