Abstract

Background: Having a haematological condition can adversely affect the quality of life (QoL) of family members/partners of patients. It is important to measure this often ignored burden in order to implement appropriate supportive interventions. Objective: To measure current impact of haematological conditions on the QoL of family members/partners of patients, using the Family Reported Outcome Measure‐16 (FROM‐16). Methods: A cross‐sectional study, recruited online through patient support groups, involved UK family members/partners of people with haematological conditions completing the FROM‐16. Results: 183 family members/partners (mean age = 60.5 years, SD = 13.2; females = 62.8%) of patients (mean age = 64.1, SD = 12.8; females = 46.4%) with 12 haematological conditions completed the FROM‐16. The FROM‐16 mean total score was 14.0 (SD = 7.2), meaning 'a moderate effect on QoL'. The mean FROM‐16 scores of family members of people with multiple myeloma (mean = 15.8, SD = 6.3, n = 99) and other haematological malignancies (mean = 13.9, SD = 7.8, n = 29) were higher than of people with pernicious anaemia (mean = 10.7, SD = 7.5, n = 47) and other non‐malignant conditions (mean = 11, SD = 7.4, n = 56, p <.01). Over one third (36.1%, n = 183) of family members experienced a 'very large effect' (FROM‐16 score>16) on their quality of life. Conclusions: Haematological conditions, in particular those of malignant type, impact the QoL of family members/partners of patients. Healthcare professionals can now, using FROM‐16, identify those most affected and should consider how to provide appropriate holistic support within routine practice. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

The Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development (ABCD) Study®is a 10-year longitudinal study of children recruited at ages 9 and 10. A battery of neuroimaging tasks are administered biennially to track neurodevelopment and identify individual differences in brain function. This study reports activation patterns from functional MRI (fMRI) tasks completed at baseline, which were designed to measure cognitive impulse control with a stop signal task (SST; N= 5,547), reward anticipation and receipt with a monetary incentive delay (MID) task (N= 6,657) and working memory and emotion reactivity with an emotional N-back (EN-back) task (N= 6,009). Further, we report the spatial reproducibility of activation patterns by assessing between-group vertex/voxelwise correlations of blood oxygen level-dependent (BOLD) activation. Analyses reveal robust brain activations that are consistent with the published literature, vary across fMRI tasks/contrasts and slightly correlate with individual behavioral performance on the tasks. These results establish the preadolescent brain function baseline, guide interpretation of cross-sectional analyses and will enable the investigation of longitudinal changes during adolescent development.
