Neurological predictor scale is associated with academic achievement outcomes in long-term survivors of childhood brain tumors

ConclusionThis study extends prior research by demonstrating that the NPS is significantly associated with academic achievement in survivors on average 15.9  years after diagnosis. The NPS may be especially helpful in clinical research when studies lack the statistical power to investigate how treatments and neurological conditions individually contribute to outcomes.
