Article Synopsis
- Retinoblastoma is the most common eye cancer in children, and challenges in diagnosis and treatment remain, especially in low- and middle-income countries.
- A systematic review identified 21 studies focused on strategies like surveillance, genetic counseling, education, public assistance, and international partnerships that can improve diagnosis and treatment access.
- Proposed initiatives from the review aim to enhance clinical outcomes for retinoblastoma patients, emphasizing the need for systematic implementation of these strategies.
Rationale: To understand the risk factors for catheter-related infection during treatment of pediatric cancer is essential to implement measures to prevent its occurrence.
Background: We performed a comprehensive systematic review of the literature with meta-analysis to identify and synthesize the main risk factors for catheter-related infection in children undergoing oncological treatment.
Methods: Systematic searches were conducted in Medline, Embase, Lilacs, and BVS (Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde) until January 2022, following PRISMA guidelines.
