Survivors >5 years from diagnosis reporting meningioma had an increased risk for: seizures (HR 10.0, 95% CI 7.0-15.3) and focal neurological dysfunction (HR 4.9, 95% CI 3.2-7.5).

Principal Investigator: Eric Chow, M.D. (Fred Hutchison Cancer Institute) Award: Scored 2nd percentile, RO1 Study Aims: Among survivors newly diagnosed, or undertreated for CVRFs (hypertension, dyslipidemia, diabetes), randomized controlled intervention to reduce undertreatment of CVRFs Intervention: provision of lab results, survivorship care plan and remote counseling Data Collection: 800 in-home assessments; 480 randomized to trial
