Cancer Institute of the University of São Paulo, Av. Dr. Arnaldo, 251 - Cerqueira César, São Paulo, SP, 01246-000, Brazil.

Recent advances in the treatment have prolonged survival, thus, increasing the chance of recurrent biliary obstruction (RBO) after SEMS placement. The aim of this study was to compare different endoscopic approaches in patients with a SEMS and RBO, regarding clinical success and time to RBO.

Cancer Survivorship, Danish Cancer Institute, Copenhagen, Denmark; Department of Clinical Medicine, Faculty of Medicine, University of Copenhagen, Denmark; Department of Clinical Oncology & Palliative Care, Zealand University Hospital, Naestved, Denmark.
Background And Purpose: Over the past decades, childhood cancer survival has increased substantially in Europe, including Denmark. However, families with fewer social resources may have benefitted less from these improvements. In this nationwide register-based study, we assessed associations between parental socioeconomic position (SEP) and 5-year relapse-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS) in childhood cancer patients.

Methods: A mixed-methods systematic review was conducted (PROSPERO: CRD42024563666).
