Article Abstract

A patient-reported outcome is directly reported by the patient without interpretation of the patient's response by anyone else. It refers to the patient's health (symptoms and feelings), quality of life, or functional status associated with health care or treatment. Patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) are defined as the tools or instruments that are used to measure patient-reported outcomes. Health-related quality of life has been the most studied psychosocial PROM in food allergy, using validated questionnaires. In drug allergy, PROMs are useful in capturing patients' experiences of potential allergic reactions, including subjective symptoms such as headache, dizziness, or fatigue. Patient-reported outcome measures can also help differentiate true allergies from side effects or other nonallergic reactions and inform decisions about drug challenges and de-labeling strategies. Ensuring the chosen tool is validated for the specific allergy context is crucial for accurate data collection. Integrating patient-reported experiences alongside traditional methods can lead to more accurate assessments and personalized care.

Importance: Advances in diagnostics have enabled the detection of more gastrointestinal pathogens, but misuse of diagnostics can lead to inappropriate antibiotic use and excess financial burdens. Ensuring appropriate use of diagnostics is crucial for optimizing patient care and promoting stewardship of health care resources.

Objective: To elicit parents' and clinicians' perspectives on expectations for care of pediatric diarrhea with a focus on diagnostic testing and to evaluate the potential for an electronic clinical decision support tool (ECDST) to improve appropriate use of diagnostics.

Impact of weight classes on feasibility, safety, and efficacy of awake craniotomy for brain lesions within eloquent areas.

Neurosurg Rev

Service de Neurochirurgie, GHU-Paris Psychiatrie et Neurosciences, Site Sainte Anne, Paris, F-75014, France.

Awake craniotomy is the gold standard to achieve maximal safe resection of brain lesions located within eloquent areas. There are no established guidelines to assess patient's eligibility for awake craniotomy by weight class. This study assesses feasibility, safety, and efficacy of awake surgery by weight classes through an observational, retrospective, single-institution cohort analysis (2010-2024) of 526 awake craniotomies.

Impact of sociodemographic and socioeconomic factors on functional and health-related quality of life outcomes 24 months after radical prostatectomy.

J Cancer Res Clin Oncol

Department of Urology, University Hospital Tübingen, Eberhard Karls University, Hoppe-Seyler Str. 3, 72076, Tübingen, Germany.

Introduction And Objectives: High socioeconomic status (SES) is associated with improved oncological outcomes across various cancer types, including prostate cancer. However, limited evidence exists regarding the impact of SES and lifestyle factors on patient-reported outcomes (PROs), including quality of life (QoL), health status (HS), and functional recovery following radical prostatectomy (RP).

Materials And Methods: We conducted a retrospective single-center analysis of 327 patients undergoing RP (177 open, 150 robotic-assisted) assessing pre- and postoperative functional outcomes (QoL, HS, erectile function, continence).
