Sažetak
Background: The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of childhood cancer and its treatment on the education, occupation, and social life of young adults in Croatia. There have been no comparable studies on this particular growing population group in Croatia to date. The study is the starting point for comparing and improving the quality of life of survivors of childhood cancer in Croatia and other countries that follow this population. Subjects and methods: The study was conducted using questionnaires distributed from October to November 2020. A total of 73 individuals were interviewed, including 40 survivors and 33 siblings as a control group. Data were collected on disease characteristics (for cancer survivors), school performance, occupational success, and quality of social life. The χ² test and Mann Whitney U test were used to compare differences between categorical and continuous variables, respectively. Results: The type of childhood malignancy and the type of childhood malignancy treatment affected survivors' academic performance (p=0.140), but performance was not statistically significantly different from that of the control group (p=0.923). No difference was found in total monthly income (p=0.920). In social life, there were no differences in living with parents (p=0.002), married life (p=0.118), and offspring (p=0.196), although there was a tendency to lag behind their siblings. Conclusion: Treatment of childhood malignancy affected academic achievement and occupational success, while in social life there tended to be differences between survivors and controls, so further study is needed.
