Andrew Davies, Professor of Palliative Medicine at Trinity College Dublin, shared a post on LinkedIn:
“The Japanese OSAS (Oral Symptom Assessment Scale) validation study has just been published in Supportive Care in Cancer – the tool was developed by us to assess oral symptoms (prevalence, frequency, severity and related distress) in patients with advanced cancer.
The Japanese data confirms our data about the negative impact on quality of life of these symptoms in this cohort of patients.
Congratulations Kotaro and colleagues.”
