Introduction: Integrated care has been posited as a potential solution to the global burden of youth mental health (YMH), but there is limited evidence on how best to design, staff, and evaluate different integrated care models. Our review aimed to consolidate the evidence on integrated models of mental healthcare for young people, to identify the core components of integration, and create a framework that can be used to analyse levels of YMH integration.

Methods: We conducted a systematic review of literature across PubMed, SCOPUS, and PsycINFO databases and the grey literature We performed a narrative synthesis extracting core components of integrated YMH care.

Objectives: To evaluate the effectiveness of integrated models of mental healthcare in enhancing clinical outcomes, quality of life, satisfaction with care and health service delivery outcomes in young people aged 12-25 years. A secondary objective was to identify common components of integrated mental health interventions.

Methods: A systematic review and meta-analysis of studies published 2001-2023 that assessed clinical or health service use outcomes of integrated care, relative to treatment as usual, for any mental health condition in 12-25 years old accessing community-based care.

Introduction: Patient-derived xenografts (PDXs) have the potential to transform personalised cancer care, however, little is known about the acceptability of using PDXs to guide treatment decision-making. Given that patient and community preferences can influence satisfaction with care as well as the success of new technologies, we will evaluate the acceptability of PDXs in individuals affected by cancer and community comparisons.

Methods And Analysis: This comparative cross-sectional study will recruit 323 individuals affected by cancer (cancer survivors (of childhood or adult cancer) and parents of childhood cancer survivors) and 323 community comparisons (adults and parents).

Background: Genetic testing to determine cancer survivors' risk of developing late effects from their cancer treatment will be increasingly used in survivorship care. This 2-stage study with 64 survivors of childhood cancer and their parents investigated the preferences and acceptability of testing among those who may be at risk of developing late effects.

Methods: The first stage (Stage 1) identified the most commonly perceived benefits and concerns regarding genetic testing for the risk of late effects among 24 participants.
