These patients often rely on informal caregivers (e.g., family, friends) for functional support, shown to increase caregiver distress in other neurologic populations. However, few studies have investigated this relationship in neuro-oncology; thus, we explored whether neuro-oncology patients\u2019 neurocognitive function was associated with caregiver burden.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec id=\"S1355617725101598_as2\">\n                    <jats:title>Method:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Neuro-oncology patients completed neuropsychological tests assessing commonly affected cognitive domains, and caregivers completed a validated measure of caregiver burden including impact on daily schedule, self-esteem, and availability of family support.
