Summary: This systematic review evaluates the oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) of patients with chronic respiratory diseases. Results indicate that patients with chronic respiratory diseases have a worse OHRQoL. The relationship between oral health, health-related quality of life, disease-related parameters, and OHRQoL is rarely examined.

Summary: Patients with cirrhosis have poor HRQoL, which is influenced by various factors such as depression, muscle cramps, poor sleep, falls, frailty, and malnutrition. Among cirrhosis decompensating events, hepatic encephalopathy (HE) is the complication most commonly associated with poor HRQoL.

Summary: Barrett's esophagus patients have a decreased health-related quality of life, with experiencing symptoms being the most important factor. Other important factors influencing HRQOL include medication use, fear of cancer, and trust in physicians and endoscopic procedures.

Summary: Narcolepsy patients have significantly lower health-related quality of life compared to general population norms and patients with other chronic diseases, with physical component less affected than mental component. Further research is needed to investigate the long-term effects and develop a specific assessment tool.

Summary: After analyzing 10 studies, it was found that the prevalence of BE is high in patients undergoing EGD after SG, with no significant correlation with postoperative GERD symptoms. Most cases of BE were observed after 3 years.

Summary: HR-QoL in breast cancer patients remains generally stable with the addition of CDK4/6 inhibitors, although differences exist between abemaciclib, palbociclib and ribociclib mainly due to their distinct safety profiles. Gastrointestinal symptoms such as diarrhea and nausea favored the control arm in patients receiving abemaciclib for metastatic BC, while HR-QoL outcomes were similar between palbociclib with endocrine therapy and endocrine therapy alone.

Summary: Diabetes mellitus is not statistically significantly associated with oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL), although it may lead to functional limitations, physical pain, and psychological discomfort. Dentists can play an important role in raising awareness about these issues and improving OHRQoL in individuals with diabetes.

Summary: This study summarizes the HRQOL results using the FACT-M questionnaire in patients with melanoma and demonstrates an inverse correlation between FACT-M total scores and AJCC stage. The study highlights the importance for clinical studies to clearly describe their selected HRQOL questionnaires and comply with the guidelines when reporting data.

Summary: This study examines the impact of interactive telehealth interventions on the quality of life (QOL) for patients with asthma, finding that modalities such as interactive web portals, smartphone apps, and remote monitoring can improve QOL outcomes. While the improvements may be small, they provide evidence for the implementation of telehealth interventions for individuals with asthma.

Summary: This study aimed to systematically review the measurement of health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in patients with extremity bone sarcoma, with a special focus on the use of preference-weighted instruments. The results showed inconsistent approaches and substantial variation in outcome scores. There is a need for improvement in the use of preference-weighted instruments for HRQoL measurement.

Summary: In patients with locally advanced gastric cancer, surgery and chemoradiotherapy have a significant impact on short-term HRQOL, but a recovery is seen after 6-12 months. More research is needed to implement HRQOL in clinical decision making.

Summary: This study reviewed instruments used for measuring HRQoL in BE patients, finding none specifically designed or validated for this population. Factors influencing HRQoL in BE patients were identified, emphasizing the importance of choosing PROMs from a patient perspective.

Summary: The assessment of health-related quality of life (HRQOL) in patients with advanced prostate cancer is essential in treatment evaluation. Current evidence indicates that various systemic treatment options have positive effects on HRQOL outcomes compared to standard androgen deprivation therapy.

Summary: This study found that the risk of post-procedure bleeding is low for large serrated polyps removed via endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR), and there is no discernable benefit of prophylactic clipping of the resection base in this group. However, for large adenomatous polyps, clipping was associated with a lower risk of post-procedure bleeding and overall serious adverse events.

Summary: Text messages are an acceptable and effective way to engage diverse individuals in colorectal cancer screening decisions and support shared decision-making. Participants from historically marginalized categories, such as those with low income, low health literacy, and Black/African American background, showed high acceptability and willingness to use similar programs.
