Eliminating Digestive Irregularities Caused by Late Effects: A Pilot Study of an Innovative Culinary Nutrition Intervention for Reducing Gastrointestinal Toxicity in Gynecologic Cancer Patients Who Have Undergone Pelvic Radiotherapy.

Background/objectives: Pelvic radiotherapy (RT) improves survival in gynecologic cancer patients but often results in gastrointestinal (GI) toxicity, affecting quality of life. Standard nutrition guidance lacks specificity for these survivors, complicating dietary choices. To address this gap, the EDIBLE intervention was developed to offer structured dietary self-management skills to alleviate RT-induced GI toxicity.

Patient, family and caregiver engagement in diabetes care: a scoping review protocol.

Introduction: New treatments and technologies have advanced diabetes care; however, diabetes continues to have a major impact on the daily lives of affected individuals, especially among equity-deserving groups. Evidence from patient engagement literature suggests that involving diverse patients in healthcare can create cost-effective improvements and enhanced efficiency in care that has high patient acceptability and numerous health benefits, as well as improved provider satisfaction. A scoping review will be conducted to provide a cohesive and comprehensive understanding of patient engagement practices and the resulting outcomes.
