Note: -- represents variables that did not remain in the model after the backward selection. Variables significant following Bonferroni adjustment for multiple comparisons are highlighted with bold font. Age used as a continuous variable (years). BMI classifications defined as: underweight = BMI<18.5, normal weight = BMI 18.5–24.9; overweight = BMI 25–29.9; obese = BMI≥30. Other diagnosis category represents a combined group of Hodgkin Lymphoma, Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma, Wilm’s Tumor, Neuroblastoma, Soft tissue sarcoma, Bone cancer. Neurocognitive problems defined as a level of negative symptoms reported in ≤ 10% of standardization samples.
