Purpose: Financial toxicity has emerged as a prevalent psychosocial problem in cancer patients, but data on non-Hodgkin lymphoma patients receiving chemotherapy remain limited. The present study aims to explore financial toxicity and its influencing factors among non-Hodgkin lymphoma patients.
Methods: A total of 236 non-Hodgkin lymphoma patients were enrolled from March to June 2023 in the oncology department of a tertiary grade-A hospital in China. Hierarchical regression analysis was used to analyze potential influences on financial, including general information, symptom burden, family and social support.
Results: The financial toxicity score for non-Hodgkin lymphoma patients was (19.24 ± 6.97). Among them, 92 participants (38.98%) were classified as experiencing high levels of financial toxicity, with a COST score of ≤17.5 points. Hierarchical regression analysis revealed that symptom burden accounting for 11.0% of the variance in financial toxicity, while family functioning and social support explained 5.8% and 4.9%, respectively.
Conclusion: The financial toxicity of non-Hodgkin lymphoma patients needs to be further improved. Patients with low household income, unemployment, high symptom burden, and inadequate family and social support may experience severe financial toxicity. Financial toxicity of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma patients must be assessed and targeted interventions must be implemented to reduce their financial burden.

Objective: Breast cancer patients often face a significant financial burden, leading to financial toxicity due to the necessity for long-term care, costly treatment, and follow-up measures. The purpose of this study is to systematically review the available qualitative evidence on how breast cancer patients cope with financial toxicity and their unmet need to promote the implementation of effective intervention strategies.
Methods: PubMed, Web of Science, PsycINFO, CINAHL, EMBASE, Scopus, CNKI, Wan Fang Data, and VIP databases were systematically searched for literature related to the study topic.

One notable consequence of climate change is an increase in the frequency, scale and severity of heat waves. Heat waves in terrestrial habitats (atmospheric heat waves, AHW) and marine habitats (marine heat waves, MHW) have received considerable attention as environmental forces that impact organisms, populations and whole ecosystems. Only one ecosystem, the intertidal zone, experiences both MHWs and AHWs.

Introduction: Young childbearing sexual minority (SM) people are more likely to use cannabis and to have an unintended pregnancy than their heterosexual peers; however, little is known about their perceptions and experiences of peripartum cannabis use. This qualitative study explores the relationships young pregnant and parenting SM people have with cannabis, as well as their feelings and opinions about prenatal cannabis use.
Method: Participants who identified as SM from baseline surveys of the YoungMoms study were recruited for semi-structured qualitative interviews (n = 13).
