Implementing Shared Medical Appointments for Cancer Patients to Cancer Survivors: An Evidence-Based Project for Breast Cancer Survivorship
More than 2 million new cancer cases are expected by 2024 in the United States. The fast-growing cancer survivors are estimated to be up to 18.4 million, 5.4% of the population in the United States, by 2032. Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women, following skin cancers in the United States. Breast cancer survivors often struggle with physical, mental, psychosocial, and financial difficulties following cancer treatments. The implementation of SMA for breast cancer survivorship is an evidence-based quality improvement initiative. Shared medical appointments (SMAs) for breast cancer survivorship can provide effective and efficient survivorship care to address unmet survivorship needs. The 90-minute survivorship SMA consists of an individual visit with a clinician and comprehensive education, counseling, and peer support with multidisciplinary oncology providers in groups of three patients. Three multidisciplinary-led SMA sessions weekly provided a comprehensive survivorship care plan for nine patients at a community cancer center. Following the SMA session, all patients received a treatment summary and individualized survivorship care plan. Eleven of the sixty-eight eligible breast cancer patients agreed and scheduled for SMAs, and nine patients (82%) attended the SMA sessions. Most participants expressed high satisfaction with SMA, rated 3.64 out of 4. Overall, most participants indicated a gain in knowledge through SMA sessions, with post-survey knowledge scores increasing by an average of 17%. Multidisciplinary-driven SMA can provide comprehensive survivorship care and individualized care plans to address difficulties during the cancer journey.No embarg

Deictic Shift and the Origins of Japanese Demonstratives
In their highly original analysis, Frellesvig and Whitman (2008) propose a theory of deictic shift in Japanese, arguing that an earlier proximal demonstrative *i was replaced by *kɨ, which triggered a shift of *sɨ from distal to mesial reference. In so doing, they reconstruct a Proto-Japanese demonstrative set that closely resembles Korean. This paper shows that Frellesvig and Whitman’s reconstruction is contradicted by both data from Ryukyuan and by Quinn’s (1997) theory of kakari-musubi origins. Instead, I reconstruct an alternate system of Proto-Japanese demonstratives that rejects deictic shift in Japanese but nevertheless preserves convincing aspects of Frellesvig and Whitman’s theory. Finally, I show how it is possible to still find convincing correspondences between this Japanese demonstrative system and that of Korean. By identifying Japanese demonstratives so and ka as cognates with non-demonstrative grammatical markers in Korean, this paper suggests that some features of the Japanese phenomenon known as kakari-musubi may be Japano-Koreanic in origin, with some exploration of the implications that this has for the chronology of grammaticalizations in Japanese
