The subscales were labeled Treatment Delivery, Treatment Decision Making, Coordinated and Integrated Care, Emotional Support, Timely Care, Follow-Up Care, Respectful Communication, Patient Preferences and Values, Cancer Information, and Equitable Care. The QPCCC measure demonstrated acceptable internal consistency for all subscales (Cronbach's a=.73-.94). When test-retest reliability was assessed, 4 items demonstrated substantial agreement (κ>0.60), whereas 40 items showed moderate agreement (κ=0.41-0.60). Ceiling effects were present for 8 subscales. Conclusions: The QPCCC measure has acceptable face and content validity, construct validity, and internal consistency. However, the measure's discriminant validity and test-retest reliability could be improved. The QPCCC measure could be used to improve patient-centered cancer care.]]> Thu 01 Aug 2019 17:10:34 AEST ]]> Why are pretreatment prostate-specific antigen levels and biochemical recurrence poor predictors of prostate cancer survival? https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:7893 Sat 24 Mar 2018 10:44:59 AEDT ]]> The cancer support person's unmet needs survey: psychometric properties https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:8245 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:40:38 AEDT ]]> Reducing inequities in cancer care: the role of cancer registries https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:7119 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:34:11 AEDT ]]> Has the investment in public cancer education delivered observable changes in knowledge over the past 10 years? https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:1369 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:28:18 AEDT ]]> Results of a multicenter, randomized, double-blind phase 2/3 study of lenalidomide in the treatment of pretreated relapsed or refractory metastatic malignant melanoma https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:10716 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:08:26 AEDT ]]> Clinical and pathologic features of familial pancreatic cancer https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:18742 2 years) was associated with poor survival in both groups.Conclusions: FPC represents 9% of PC, and the risk of malignancy in kindred does not appear to be confined to the pancreas. Patients with FPC have more precursor lesions and include fewer active smokers, but other clinicopathologic factors and outcome are similar to those in patients with SPC. Furthermore, some FPC kindreds may exhibit anticipation. A better understanding of the clinical features of PC will facilitate efforts to uncover novel susceptibility genes and the development of early detection strategies.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:02:49 AEDT ]]> Mediators of the resistance and aerobic exercise intervention effect on physical and general health in men undergoing androgen deprivation therapy for prostate cancer https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:20479 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:59:08 AEDT ]]> The effect, moderators, and mediators of resistance and aerobic exercise on health-related quality of life in older long-term survivors of prostate cancer https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:28140 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:36:38 AEDT ]]>
