Does quality of life predict long-term survival in patients with head and neck cancer?
Findings suggest potential survival benefits from improvements in QOL. However, the observed associations between survival benefit and QOL at 1 year may be confounded by comorbidity, which was not measured and deserves further investigation.
A low baseline eGFR was strongly predictive of both poor functional outcome at 3 months after ischemic stroke and neurological deterioration/mortality during hospitalization.
