SF-36: Medical Outcomes Study-Short form; FACT-G: Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-General; IOC: Impact of Cancer; R2: proportion of variation in the dependent variable explained by the regression equation; STS: short-term disease-free survivor (<5 years) ; LTS: long-term disease-free survivor (≥5 years); b: unstandardized regression coefficient (slope); SS: survivorship status; DEM: demographics (gender, race, ethnicity, age, income, education, marital status, employment status); CLN: clinical (histology, stage, surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, bone marrow/stem cell transplant, biologic therapy, recurrence, number of oncology-related visits, site of treatment); HTH: general health (other cancer excluding skin, co-morbidity, years since last physical exam); PSO: Psychosocial (social support, appraisal of life threat and treatment intensity, employment and insurance issues); PTS: (post-traumatic stress).
