Summary: The objective of this study was to understand how young adult childhood cancer survivors disclose their cancer history to romantic partners and the impact of such disclosures on relationship satisfaction. The findings showed that around half of the survivors always disclosed their cancer history to their partners and identified several factors influencing disclosure, such as survivors' attitudes, integration of cancer into their identity, and anticipated effects on romantic relationships. Additionally, some survivors experienced difficulties in disclosing their cancer history, especially if they had negative experiences in the past. Overall, survivors were satisfied with their relationship status, with partnered survivors reporting greater satisfaction than singles, especially if they had positive responses from their partners.

Summary: This study used network analysis to examine the relationships between satisfaction with life, posttraumatic growth, resilience, and coping strategies among cancer survivors. The findings showed that satisfaction with life is strongly connected to resilience, moderately connected to coping strategies, and weakly connected to posttraumatic growth. The network structures were invariant across several moderating variables, suggesting the robustness of the relationships. These findings highlight the importance of coping strategies and resilience in improving cancer survivors' satisfaction with life.

Summary: The objective of this study is to summarize peer-reviewed evidence on the effect of a cancer diagnosis on the different sources of income for individuals diagnosed with cancer during adulthood. The findings suggest that cancer's impact on survivors' income is complex and time-varying. Longitudinal studies using standardized income measures and capturing treatment type and follow-up time are needed to improve our understanding of this impact.

Summary: This study aimed to identify risk factors for obesity in childhood cancer survivors (CCSs). The study found that CCSs had a lower risk of obesity compared to the general French population. However, brain tumor survivors had a significantly higher risk of developing obesity. Patients who received radiotherapy to the pituitary gland and those who received etoposide treatment also had an increased risk of obesity.

Summary: This study aims to describe the fear of cancer recurrence among gynecologic cancer survivors and identify psychosocial factors that predict elevated fear. The findings reveal that fear of recurrence is prevalent among gynecologic cancer survivors. Higher levels of distress, hopelessness, anxiety, and surprisingly, post-traumatic growth are associated with greater fear. These results highlight the importance of addressing the psychosocial well-being of cancer survivors.
