Abstract
Low health literacy (HL) has been linked to low self-rated health, reduced efficacy of behaviour change, and challenges in preventing, treating, or managing health conditions. People experiencing homelessness are at risk of poor HL; however, few studies have investigated HL in relation to mental and spiritual well-being among people experiencing homelessness in general, or women experiencing homelessness specifically. This cross-sectional study of 46 women experiencing homelessness in Stockholm, Sweden, recruited during the period October 2019-December 2020, aimed to examine how HL was associated with mental and spiritual well-being among women experiencing homelessness. Participants answered questions about socio-demographic characteristics (age, length of homelessness, education) and digital technology (mobile phone/the Internet) use, in addition to Swedish language versions of three questionnaires administered through structured, face-to-face interviews: the Communicative and Critical Health Literacy Scale, the General Health Questionnaire 12 and the Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy-Spiritual Well-Being. Data were analysed using linear regression, which revealed statistically significant associations between HL and mental well-being (p = .009), and between HL and spiritual well-being (p = .022). However, neither socio-demographic characteristics nor digital technology use were significantly associated with HL. In conclusion, promoting HL may improve mental and spiritual well-being in this vulnerable population. An advisory board of women with lived experiences of homelessness (n = 5) supported the interpretation of the findings and emphasised the need to consider HL in relation to basic needs such as 'housing first'. Moreover, health information and services should be accessible to people with different degrees of HL.

Abstract
Background Cancer is the third main cause of death in Iran only after cardiovascular diseases and accidents. Objectives The main aim of this research study was to identify nurses’ understanding of cancer patients’ Quality of Life (QoL) in an Iranian context. Patients and Methods This descriptive correlational study was conducted in an educative referral oncology center affiliated to Isfahan University of Medical Sciences, Isfahan, Iran in 2013. 50 pairs of cancer patients and their nurses were conveniently recruited. The sample of nurses were selected based on consensus sampling which included more than 70 percent of eligible nurses in the hospital. Patients and nurses were requested to complete the Farsi version of the world health organization quality of life (WHOQoL-BREF) questionnaire, separately. QoL was measured across four dimensions including physical, psychological, social relationship and environmental. Results The QoL mean domain scores of patients were 10.06, 11.88, 12.76 and 11.96, respectively. The corresponding scores of nurses were 11.6, 11.23, 12.65 and 12.07. Pearson correlations between patients and nurses scores were 0.42, 0.5, 0.25 and 0.58 which revealed a fair to moderate agreement between nurses’ and patients’ scores in different domains. Paired samples t-test values indicated that physical QoL mean domain scores of patients were significantly lower than the corresponding drawings of nurses [t (49) = -3.41, P < 0.001]. Conclusions The main finding of this QoL study was that nurses generally have a moderate understanding of cancer patients’ QoL. Therefore, in order to meet different physio-psycho-social needs of patients, nurses must enhance their understanding of patients’ QoL particularly in more subjective and personal domains like social domain using a holistic approach.

Abstract
The study’s aim was to evaluate the agreement between patients’ and nurses’ ratings of patients’ health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and to identify factors that affect their level of agreement. A total of 150 home health care cancer patients from Greece and all nurses ( N = 5) who worked in the home health care units completed the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire–Core 30 (EORTC QLQ-C30). Intraclass correlation coefficients varied between .45 and .87, indicating a moderate to excellent agreement. Median absolute difference on QLQ-C30 scores ranged from 0.00 to 16.66 points on the 0 to 100 scale. Cohen’s d varied between −0.15 and 0.59. Nurses’ higher educational level was associated with greater agreement ( p = .05). Nurses assessed lower the QoL of patients who were completely disabled than the patients themselves did ( p = .005). Our findings suggest that Greek home health care nurses estimate patients’ QoL in a reliable and valid way.

Abstract
This paper seeks to highlight the challenges facing researchers when recruiting vulnerable patients to a research study. We explore the difficulties experienced in gatekeeping for a project involving people with dementia, intellectual disabilities and mental health problems who are also having treatment for cancer. It is argued that the challenges in identifying and recruiting vulnerable participants extend beyond ethics committees and governance to the perceptions and judgements of health care professionals in ‘allowing’ access to particular patient groups. These positions and judgements appear to be embedded in certain construction(s) of cancer and discourses surrounding dementia, intellectual disabilities and mental health.

Abstract
Quality of life (QOL) has become an increasingly meaningful endpoint in advanced cancer research. Clinicians assess QOL to help them select appropriate treatment options and regimens. The present review aims to compare QOL scores of the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-General Assessment Tool (FACT-G) in relation to clinical and socio-demographic features in patients with advanced cancer. A literature search in MEDLINE and EMBASE was conducted; a total of 33 studies encompassing 39 study arms were identified that reported FACT-G scores. Four statistically significant parameters were identified with respect to FACT-G scores: education, national per capita healthcare expenditures, admittance status and previous radiation therapy. A greater percentage of patients completing higher education programs were correlated to significantly better emotional well-being and global QOL. Cohorts from countries with higher national per capita healthcare expenditures had better physical well-being, social/family well-being and improved relationships with their doctors. Patient samples comprised of purely outpatients had better levels of emotional well-being and global QOL when compared to samples with a mix of outpatients and inpatients. A greater percentage of patients previously receiving radiation therapy were correlated to a better relationship with doctor score. Although limitations of the present review exist, differences in QOL scores based on socio-demographic and clinical factors are observed; certain correlations described in the present work have been described previously in the literature while others have not. Future work aimed at either determining confounding parameters or cause and effect relationships is recommended.

Abstract
PURPOSE To assess pain and anxiety during bone marrow aspiration/biopsy (BMA) among patients versus health-care professionals (HCPs). METHOD 235 adult hematologic patients undergoing BMA were included. BMA was performed by 16 physicians aided by nine registered nurses (RNs). Questionnaires were used to obtain patients and HCPs ratings of patients' pain and anxiety during BMA. Patterns of ratings for pain and anxiety among patients HCPs were estimated with proportions of agreement P(A), Cohen's kappa coefficient (κ), and single-measure intra-class correlation (ICC). We also explored if associations of ratings were influenced by age, sex, type and duration of BMA. RESULTS The P(A) for occurrence of rated pain during BMA was 73% between patients and RNs, and 70% between patients and physicians, the corresponding κ was graded as fair (0.37 and 0.33). Agreement between patients and HCPs regarding intensity of pain was moderate (ICC=0.44 and 0.42). Severe pain (VAS>54) was identified by RNs and physicians in 34% and 35% of cases, respectively. Anxiety about BMA outcome and needle insertion was underestimated by HCPs. P(A) between patients and RNs and patients and physicians regarding anxiety ranged from 53% to 59%. The corresponding κ was slight to fair (0.10-0.21). ICC showed poor agreement between patients and HCPs regarding intensity of anxiety (0.13-0.36). CONCLUSIONS We found a better congruence between patients and HCPs in pain ratings than in anxiety ratings, where the agreement was low. RNs and physicians underestimated severe pain as well as anxiety about BMA outcome and needle insertion.

Abstract
Health assets, a term that refers to patients’ strengths and potentials, has emerged as an important aspect of health care. A conceptual analysis of health assets revealed five core dimensions: mobilization, motivational, relational, volitional, and protective strengths. How nurses experience and use patients’ health assets, however, is unknown. In this qualitative study, 26 expert nurses in cancer care participated in focus group interviews. The nurses had a large repertoire of experiences with cancer patients’ health assets. When the data were subjected to thematic analysis, three new core dimensions were revealed: cognitive, emotional, and physical strengths. Balancing processes within and among health assets—identified as an overriding theme—appeared to be affected by individual and contextual variations. The nurses realized that patients’ health assets could be better used and voiced a need for the clinical and organizational support to do so. New issues about health assets raised in this study may be caused by its novel context (e.g., expert nurses in oncology care). More research is needed on health assets in other contexts, such as patients with different health problems, and of possible strategies to support nurses’ use of health assets.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Cancer places many demands on the patient and threatens the person's sense of meaning to life. It has been shown that cancer patients use their spirituality to cope with these experiences. The present literature review summarizes the research findings on the relationship between spirituality and emotional well-being. Special attention is given to the strength of the research findings. METHODS A literature search was performed in Pubmed and Web of Science. Spirituality does not necessarily coincide with religiosity. Therefore, studies were excluded that focused on religiosity. Forty publications met the inclusion criteria: Twenty-seven studies that investigated the relationship between spirituality and well-being, and 13 publications that explored the relationship between meaning in life and well-being. RESULTS The majority of the cross-sectional studies (31 of 36) found a positive association between spirituality and well-being. The four studies with a longitudinal design showed mixed results. The significance of the findings is challenged, because most spirituality questionnaires contain several items that directly refer to emotional well-being. CONCLUSIONS Despite that the majority of the studies concluded that spirituality was associated with higher well-being, no definitive conclusions on this relationship can be drawn due to major methodological shortcomings of these studies. Longitudinal research utilizing spirituality and well-being measures that do not overlap in content is recommended.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is a need for more knowledge about how survivors of childhood cancer perceive their lives and what influence current health status has on their quality of life. The purpose was to describe this among a group of long-term survivors and among a comparison group. PROCEDURE Telephone interviews were performed with a cohort of 246 long-term survivors and 296 randomly selected from the general population using the Schedule for the Evaluation of Individual Quality of Life-Direct Weighting (SEIQoL-DW). The participants nominated the areas they considered to be most important in life and rated the current status of each area on a seven-point category scale. An overall individual index score was calculated as a measure of quality of life. Self-reported health status was assessed using the Short Form Health Survey (SF-36). RESULTS Long-term survivors rated their overall quality of life and self-reported health status almost in parity with the comparison group. In both groups, family life, relations to other people, work and career, interests and leisure activities were the areas most frequently reported to influence quality of life. The survivors only differed from the comparison group on one of eight SF-36 scales reflecting problems with daily activities owing to physical health. CONCLUSIONS Health status was not shown to have a major impact on overall quality of life, indicating that health and quality of life should be evaluated distinctively as different constructs. This should be taken in consideration in clinical care of children with childhood cancer and long-term survivors.
