The e-QuoL project: enhancing long-term follow-up care for childhood cancer survivors through digital innovation, results of an exploratory questionnaire.
Article in Journal of cancer survivorship : research and practice, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
purposeChildhood, adolescent, and young adult cancer survivors represent a growing population with unique long-term follow-up (LTFU) needs, including managing late effects of treatment and ensuring psychosocial well-being. The e-QuoL project aims to develop digital tools tailored to enhance survivorship care.
methodAn online survey comprising 424 questions was distributed across 16 European countries. The distribution plan ensured engagement from diverse stakeholders, including patients, parents, and healthcare professionals. Descriptive and thematic analyses of survey data identified key content, functionalities, and features for the design of such tools.
resultsFor participants (n = 53), the inclusion of a follow-up plan for the risk of sequelae in the first 5 years of follow-up was the highest priority (mean score, 9.62). Supportive care items were deemed important. In terms of functionalities, the most highly rated was the ability to send reminders to patients to not forget exams (mean score, 9.25). The inclusion of an algorithm to propose follow-up plans based on selected sections was also particularly valued (mean score, 9.10). Finally, the user experience of digital tools, including the need for these tools to be engaging, easy to use, and customizable, was highlighted by 66.7% of participants.
conclusionThis study emphasizes the need for customizable, accessible, and user-centered digital tools to bridge disparities in LTFU care. Collaborative efforts to address technological, financial, and ethical barriers are essential to achieving equitable, effective survivorship support. IMPLICATIONS FOR CANCER SURVIVORS: By developing and implementing comprehensive digital tools, a more personalized, holistic, and effective model of survivorship care can be achieved.
