Mashup Score: 5Rapid geriatric screening tools predict inability to manage stoma by oneself after urinary diversion: G8 and IADL-modified G8 - 2 year(s) ago
This study aimed to evaluate whether functional screening, as assessed by the Geriatric-8 (G8) and the instrumental activities of daily living (IADL)-modified G8, are associated with the inability to manage a stoma by themselves in patients with bladder cancer who underwent robot-assisted radical cystectomy.

Mashup Score: 0Treatment patterns and survival in older adults with unresected nonmetastatic biliary tract cancers - 2 year(s) ago
The optimal treatment for unresected nonmetastatic biliary tract cancer (uBTC) is not well-established. The objective of this study was to analyze the treatment patterns and compare the differences in overall survival (OS) between different treatment strategies amongst older adults with uBTC.

Mashup Score: 0Objectively measured physical activity in patients with lung cancer after surgey: Feasibility and acceptability of a longitudinal approach - 2 year(s) ago
Physical activity (PA) guidelines for cancer survivors recommend at least 150 min of moderate PA per week [1]. For patients with lung cancer, there is emerging evidence suggesting that (1) higher levels of PA and exercise are associated with improved exercise capacity, muscle strength, pulmonary function, postoperative complications, fatigue, and dyspnea, (2) <30% of lung cancer survivors meet PA...

Mashup Score: 3Osteosarcomas in older adults: A report from the Cooperative Osteosarcoma Study Group - 2 year(s) ago
Osteosarcoma is typically a disease of the young, but may affect any age. Little is known about the disease in older patients beyond retirement age. We aim to describe the characteristics, treatment, and outcomes of older adult patients registered with our cooperative group.

Mashup Score: 0Exploring the acceptability of the ‘smart cane’ to support mobility in older cancer survivors and older adults: A mixed methods study - 2 year(s) ago
Approximately 25% of older cancer survivors (i.e., ≥ 65 years, with cancer history) use ≥1 mobility device, surpassing usage by other older adults. Few tools exist for older “survivors” to regain function or follow lifestyle recommendations. Our goal was to explore opportunities to leverage technology-enabled mobility devices, such as the “smart cane,” to support mobility goals in these…

Mashup Score: 0Linking clinical and population-based data in older patients with cancer in Belgium: Feasibility and clinical outcomes - 2 year(s) ago
Geriatric screening and geriatric assessment (GS/GA) have proven their benefits in the care for older patients with cancer. However, less is known about the predictive value of GS/GA for outcomes. To research this, clinical data on GS/GA can be enriched with population-based data. In this article we describe the methods and feasibility of data linkage, and first clinical outcomes (GS/GA results…

Mashup Score: 0Impact of pharmaceutical care interventions on multidisciplinary care of older patients with cancer: A systematic review - 2 year(s) ago
Optimizing medication use is a major issue in older patients with cancer and pharmacists are increasingly involved in their multidisciplinary care. The implementation of pharmaceutical care interventions must be supported by impact evaluations to enable their development and funding. This systematic review aims to synthesize evidence on the impact of pharmaceutical care interventions in older…

Mashup Score: 3Psychosocial needs of older patients with metastatic breast cancer treated at community centers - 2 year(s) ago
Psychosocial status contributes to overall quality of life (QOL) for patients with cancer as psychosocial distress is commonly seen in this population. We sought to describe the psychosocial needs of older adults with metastatic breast cancer (MBC) treated in the community. We evaluated the correlation between the patient’s psychosocial status and the presence of other geriatric abnormalities in…
