“…Childhood and adolescent cancer survivors (CACS) experience various neurological and cognitive complications including physical weakness, developmental disabilities, stunted growth, and fears of post-treatment recurrence. Consequently, it has also been reported that they have trouble with regular school attendance and experience various obstacles to participating in activities, decreased self-esteem, and confusion about self-identity [2,[4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15]. In addition, previous studies on the needs of CACS found that many of them had unmet needs re- lated to continuing health management, healthy living and self-actualization, emotional well-being, social interaction, academic performance and future careers [6][7][8][9][10][11][12].…”

Purpose: This study analyzed research trends related to childhood and adolescent cancer survivors (CACS) using word co-occurrence network analysis on studies registered in the Korean Citation Index (KCI).Methods: This word co-occurrence network analysis study explored major research trends by constructing a network based on relationships between keywords (semantic morphemes) in the abstracts of published articles. Research articles published in the KCI over the past 10 years were collected using the Biblio Data Collector tool included in the NetMiner Program (version 4), using "cancer survivors", "adolescent", and "child" as the main search terms. After pre-processing, analyses were conducted on centrality (degree and eigenvector), cohesion (community), and topic modeling.Results: For centrality, the top 10 keywords included "treatment", "factor", "intervention", "group", "radiotherapy", "health", "risk", "measurement", "outcome", and "quality of life". In terms of cohesion and topic analysis, three categories were identified as the major research trends: "treatment and complications", "adaptation and support needs", and "management and quality of life".Conclusion: The keywords from the three main categories reflected interdisciplinary identification. Many studies on adaptation and support needs were identified in our analysis of nursing literature. Further research on managing and evaluating the quality of life among CACS must also be conducted.

“…Research on CACS in Korea published in the past 10 years mainly consists of surveys related to the health needs of CACS [2,5,7,8,[10][11][12][13][14][15], systematic reviews [16], and qualitative research studies [6,9,17]. However, these studies only address specific topics related to CACS.…”

Background Acute leukemia is a major malignancy in children. Multiagent chemotherapy protocols are the main treatment option for acute leukemia. Still chemotherapy has a significant effect on children's well-being, improving the physical, psychological, and social status of children, and also, it has a remarkable effect on self-image and self-esteem. Aim The aim was to assess self-esteem of acute leukemic children undergoing chemotherapy. Patients and methods A descriptive exploratory research design was used. The study was conducted at two pediatric oncology outpatient clinics at Tanta Cancer Center and National Cancer Institute at Cairo University. A purposive sample of 80 children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia was recruited. Their ages were between 10 and 16 years old. A structured interview questionnaire and Coopersmith Self-esteem Inventory were used, and IRB approval was obtained from the National Cancer Institute for performing this study. Results The age of half of the children (50%) ranged between 14 and 16 years, with mean±SD age of 13.21±1.62 years. Overall, 61.3% were males. Less than half of the children (47.5%) received intravenous chemotherapy, whereas 46.2% of the children had both oral and intravenous chemotherapy. More than half of the children (62.5%) had low self-esteem regarding general self, whereas the vast majority of children (90%) had low self-esteem regarding their social self-peers. All children had low self-esteem toward their home parents, whereas the highest percent (98.8%) of children had low self-esteem regarding their school academic. The vast majority children (98.8%) had low self-esteem regarding the lie scale. All dimensions of self-esteem were significantly correlated with total score of self-esteem. Conclusion Children with acute leukemia undergoing chemotherapy had low self-esteem regarding general self, home parents, school academic, and social peers. Self-esteem was negatively affected among school age and adolescent children with acute leukemia who underwent chemotherapy. Regarding the lie domain, most children always told the truth. Recommendations Training programs should be designed and constructed for nurses in how to assess self-esteem for children with acute leukemia. Empowerment program should be directed to children with acute leukemia and their caregivers to improve their self-esteem.

The purpose of this study was to review articles that used the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) scale to measure sleep quality among adults with trauma experiences. Methods: Databases such as PubMed, CINAHL, Embase, Cochrane, Medline, Google Scholar, Riss, NDSL, and reference data were searched systematically for relevant studies from July 5 to 6, 2018. A quality assessment was conducted using the COSMIN (COnsensus-based Standards for the selection of health Measurement INstruments) risk of bias checklist, including content validity, structural validity, internal consistency, reliability, measurement error, hypotheses testing, cross-cultural validity, criterion validity, and responsiveness. Results: Fourteen studies met the inclusion criteria. All selected studies confirmed the overall quality of sleep by total score, but only 28.6% of the papers presented subscales. The quality of the methodology used varied within and between studies. Internal consistency of 21.5%, cross-cultural validity of 7.1%, and criterion validity of 14.2% were all evaluated as sufficient (+). Reliability and measurement errors were not presented in selected studies. Conclusion: Our findings revealed that overall quality of sleep was measured by analyzing the characteristics and measurement attributes of the PSQI. However, as a result of the varying purposes of each study, the full potential of the tool could not be optimized. Future research should assess the attributes of the PSQI based on the content specified in the COSMIN evaluation standard, using it carefully to consider the target population's socio-cultural characteristics.
