Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

OBJECTIVE: Diagnosis and treatment of childhood cancer can impact the mental health of the family. Early psychosocial risk screening may help guide interventions. The primary aim of this study was to evaluate if an intervention (providing psychosocial risk information to the patient's treating team) would result in decreased depression symptoms in caregivers, in general, and relative to initial psychosocial risk. A secondary aim was to examine intervention effects in a small sample of patient and sibling self-reported outcomes. METHODS: We randomly allocated families to the intervention group (IG, treating team received PAT summary) or control group (CG, no summary). One hundred and twenty-two caregivers of children newly diagnosed with cancer completed measures of depression and anxiety and psychosocial risk 2-4 weeks from diagnosis (T1) and 6 months later (T2). Patients and siblings completed self-report measures of depression and anxiety. RESULTS: = .60). Similar results were found in anxiety scores. Intervention effects with patients and siblings were inconclusive. CONCLUSIONS: Sharing psychosocial risk information with the treating team had measurable impact on mental health outcomes only if caregivers had initial high psychosocial risk. This study contributes to our understanding of mapping psychosocial screening and resources to improve outcomes in families managing childhood cancer.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
