Abstract
Adolescent and young adult (AYA) cancer survivors often search online for information about cancer-related sexual and reproductive health concerns. A review of the websites of National Cancer Institute-designated cancer centers (n = 9) and comprehensive cancer centers (n = 58) was conducted to identify the presence of AYA-specific sexual and reproductive health programming and resources. No AYA-specific sexual health programs were found. Oncofertility programs were presented on 56% (n = 5) of cancer centers and 50% (n = 29) of comprehensive cancer center websites. As the population grows, it is imperative that cancer centers provide services to meet AYAs' sexual and reproductive health needs and highlight these services on their websites.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
