Purpose: Advances in cancer detection and treatment have extended cancer survivors' (CSs) life expectancy, but their evolving health needs remain unmet. This study analyzes 14 patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) for CSs with non-cutaneous cancers using the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) framework. These 14 PROMs are derived from a recent review focusing on the implementation of the routine assessment of unmet needs in cancer survivors.

Article Synopsis
- * A systematic review analyzed randomized controlled trials (RCTs) up to November 2021 to assess the effectiveness of exercise-based rehabilitation interventions for PACS, screening 516 citations and including five trials with 512 participants.
- * Findings suggest that rehabilitation can improve symptoms like dyspnea, anxiety, and muscle strength, although results regarding pulmonary function were mixed; further high-quality studies are needed to confirm these benefits.
Objective: To translate, culturally adapt, and validate the psychometric characteristics of the Italian version of the Dance Functional Outcome Survey (DFOS-IT) in adult dancers.
Design: Clinical measurement study.
Methods: The DFOS-IT was forward translated, reconciled, backward translated, and reviewed by an expert committee to establish optimal correspondence with the original English DFOS.
