Adverse health outcomes and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) among long-term adolescent and young adult (AYA) brain tumour survivors: results from the population-based SURVAYA study.
Article in Supportive care in cancer : official journal of the Multinational Association of Supportive Care in Cancer, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
purposeAdolescent and young adult (AYA) malignant brain tumour (BT) survivors are at risk of adverse health outcomes, which may impact their health-related quality of life (HRQoL). This study aimed to investigate the (1) prevalence of physical and psychological adverse health outcomes, (2) the HRQoL, and (3) the association of adverse health outcomes and HRQoL among long-term AYA-BT survivors. Adverse health outcomes and HRQoL were compared to other AYA cancer (AYAC) survivors.
methodsA cross-sectional secondary data analysis of the SURVAYA study among 133 AYA-BT and 3877 AYAC survivors was conducted. Participant self-reported adverse health outcomes and HRQoL scores were analysed and compared between the two populations. Associations with HRQoL were assessed using linear regression modelling with AIC-based backward elimination.
resultsAYA-BT survivors faced significant issues of fatigue (47.6%), future uncertainty (45.2%), and medical conditions like vision (34.4%), speech, taste, or smell (26.2%) impairments, cancer recurrence, and metastasis (25.4%). Neurocognitive symptoms were identified as BT-specific issues (13.6-33.6%). Compared to AYAC survivors, AYA-BT survivors reported significantly (p < 0.05) lower functioning scores on the role, cognitive, emotional, and social HRQoL, with cognitive (56.0%) and emotional (40.0%) domains being the most affected. Adverse health outcomes were negatively associated with HRQoL, ranging from small to large clinical relevance.
conclusionLong-term AYA-BT survivors were identified as a highly burdened population, affected by multifaceted issues and multidimensional detriments in HRQoL years beyond their cancer diagnosis. This study highlights the necessity of long-term follow-up and a holistic, multidisciplinary approach to survivorship care to ultimately improve the quality of AYA-BT survivorship.
