Introduction: Methods for assessing change in tumor burden differ between clinical trial and routine clinical care settings, presenting a unique opportunity to design novel methods to capture clinical outcomes from electronic health record (EHR) data. We adapted a previously established approach for solid tumors and modified it to capture real-world progression (rwP) and real-world insufficient response (rwIR) events in non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL).
Methods: This study used a nationwide EHR-derived deidentified database.
Background: Older adults (aged >65 years) are disproportionately affected by cancer at a time when Canadians are surviving cancer in an unprecedented fashion. Contrary to persistent ageist assumptions, not only do the majority of older adult cancer survivors use digital health technologies (DHTs) regularly, such technologies also serve as important sources of their health information. Although older adults' transition to cancer survivorship is connected to the availability and provision of relevant and reliable information, little evidence exists as to how they use DHTs to supplement their understanding of their unique situation to manage, and make decisions about, their ongoing cancer-related concerns.

- The National Guard played a crucial role in the U.S. response to the COVID-19 pandemic, and understanding their personal experiences can help address mental health issues among service members.
- A survey conducted with nearly 4,000 NG members revealed that 32% experienced personal connections to COVID-19, such as infection or loss of loved ones, which resulted in higher levels of posttraumatic stress symptoms (PTSS) and probable PTSD.
- Specifically, those whose close relationships were affected by death due to COVID-19 reported significantly higher PTSS and were nearly three times as likely to exhibit PTSD compared to those without such experiences.
