Background: Artificial intelligence (AI) has been increasingly used in healthcare during the last decade, and recent applications in oncology nursing have shown great potential in improving care for patients with cancer. It is timely to comprehensively synthesize knowledge about the progress of AI technologies in oncology nursing.
Objective: The aims of this study were to synthesize and evaluate the existing evidence of AI technologies applied in oncology nursing.
Methods: A scoping review was conducted based on the methodological framework proposed by Arksey and O'Malley and later improved by the Joanna Briggs Institute. Six English databases and 3 Chinese databases were searched dating from January 2010 to November 2022.
Results: A total of 28 articles were included in this review-26 in English and 2 in Chinese. Half of the studies used a descriptive design (level VI). The most widely used AI technologies were hybrid AI methods (28.6%) and machine learning (25.0%), which were primarily used for risk identification/prediction (28.6%). Almost half of the studies (46.4%) explored developmental stages of AI technologies. Ethical concerns were rarely addressed.
Conclusions: The applicability and prospect of AI in oncology nursing are promising, although there is a lack of evidence on the efficacy of these technologies in practice. More randomized controlled trials in real-life oncology nursing settings are still needed.
Implications For Practice: This scoping review presents comprehensive findings for consideration of translation into practice and may provide guidance for future AI education, research, and clinical implementation in oncology nursing.

Background: The incorporation of anti-GD2 antibodies such as ch14.18/SP2/0 into the multimodal treatment of high-risk neuroblastoma (HR-NB) patients has improved their outcomes. As studies assessing the long-term outcomes, long-term sequelae, and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) of this treatment are limited, this retrospective analysis aimed to explore these.

Glioblastoma, the most common and aggressive primary brain tumor in adults, presents a formidable challenge due to its rapid progression, treatment resistance, and poor survival outcomes. Standard care typically involves maximal safe surgical resection, followed by fractionated external beam radiation therapy and concurrent temozolomide chemotherapy. Despite these interventions, median survival remains approximately 12-15 months, with a five-year survival rate below 10%.

Objectives: Malnutrition is a prevalent condition in cancer patients that significantly impacts patients' clinical outcomes and health-related quality of life (HR-QoL). The outcome was to characterize the nutritional status by describing the prevalence of malnutrition (mild, moderate, or severe) and its risk in outpatient cancer patients.
Methods: Multicenter, prospective, cross-sectional, descriptive, two-cohort study conducted on consecutive adult patients with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors (stages III-IV).
