Exploring different stroke populations' information needs: a cross-sectional study in England.

Background: While tailored information might have the potential to motivate stroke survivors to make essential lifestyle changes and improve long-term outcomes, how this varies among different stroke populations is not yet fully understood.

Method: From November 2022 to May 2023, stroke survivors in the UK, who were clinically stable, participated in a community-based, descriptive cross-sectional study. Participants rated several information themes on a Likert scale from one to five, indicating the relevance of each information group to them.

'It's like being pushed into sea on a boat with no oars': Breast cancer survivorship and rehabilitation support in Ireland and the UK.

The present study aimed to investigate breast cancer survivors' attitudes towards their health post-treatment; their awareness of co-morbidities associated with treatment; and their awareness of support systems available.
