The problem
Intervention: Brief, family-centered educational intervention involving CCS and caregivers, integrating health education about exercise benefits, health risks, and individualized exercise recommendations.
Who it was tested with: Childhood cancer survivors (CCS) and their caregivers in China; 106 enrolled, 78 completed follow-up..
The same group is measured before the intervention and again afterwards, with a baseline and an endline and sometimes a midline. Change is visible, but other causes cannot be ruled out.
"We conducted a mixed-methods, single-arm educational intervention involving CCS and their caregivers. Baseline assessments (T0) and follow-up assessments conducted 1-3 months after the intervention (T1) evaluated three major outcome domains." The study used pre-post measurements of the same group before and after exposure to an educational intervention, with qualitative data to understand mechanisms.
Single-arm design without control group limits causal inference. Short follow-up period (1-3 months) cannot assess long-term sustainability. 73.6% completion rate at follow-up may introduce selection bias. Outcome measures rely on self-report questionnaires.
