Systematic review reveals social isolation and connectedness as key health determinants in young adult cancer survivors, highlighting the need for targeted screening and interventions.

The identified risk and protective factors can identify YAs who especially may benefit from screening for social isolation. Future studies are needed that directly, reliably, and validly evaluate social isolation and connectedness to inform the development of interventions to decrease isolation and increase connectedness.
