Background: It is estimated that there are >18 million cancer survivors in the United States, and there is a growing number of survivorship programs across the country to care for these individuals. There is a clear need for survivorship care; however, evidence is still emerging on how to best operationalize the guidance from nationally recognized organizations and clinical practice guidelines.
Methods: The NCCN Best Practices Committee (BPC) recently conducted a survey to better understand survivorship clinics at NCCN Member Institutions.
Although children's dietary intake often resembles that of their parents', dietary resemblance has not been examined among children with intellectual disabilities (ID), where food selectivity is a common parental concern. We compared dietary resemblance in children with typical development (TD), ID, and ID and co-occurring autism (ID + A) in parent-child dyads, and examined whether child food selectivity mediated between-group differences. Dietary data from parents and their children (3-8 years, male = 61.

Previous studies using sensorimotor coordination games suggest that human dyads develop coordination strategies that can be interpreted as Nash equilibria. However, if the players are uncertain about what their partner is doing, they develop coordination strategies which are robust to the actual partner's actions.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFAcute myeloid leukemia (AML) is an aggressive hematologic neoplasia with a complex polyclonal architecture. Among driver lesions, those involving the gene represent the most frequent mutations identified at diagnosis. The development of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) has improved the clinical outcomes of -mutated patients (Pt).

Early hospital discharge (EHD) following completion of chemotherapy has proven safe as an alternative at select institutions, but is not widely implemented.
Patients And Methods: From February 2023 through May 2023, the NCCN Best Practices Committee conducted a survey evaluating AML hospitalization patterns, care models, and barriers to EHD at its 33 member institutions.
