The goal of this study is to explore the trajectory patterns of chemotherapy induced peripheral neuropathy over the course of chemotherapy and identify predictors of distinct trajectories in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia. A perspective longitudinal study design is utilized. Chemotherapy induced peripheral neuropathy was assessed at one week after the first use of Vincristine (VCR) (T1), one week after the second use of VCR (T2), one week after the third use of VCR (T3), one week after the fourth use of VCR (T4), two weeks after T4 (T5), two weeks after T5 (T6), two weeks after T5 (T7). Patients' demographic and clinical characteristics, physical symptoms, nutrition status, psychological distress, sleep quality, physical activity, perceived social support and coping strategy are obtained at baseline.

Primary outcome measure(s)
Pediatric chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (P-CIN) scale — One week after the first use of Vincristine (VCR) (T1), one week after the second use of VCR (T2), one week after the third use of VCR (T3), one week after the fourth use of VCR (T4), two weeks after T4(T5), two weeks after T5(T6), two weeks after T6(T7) For measuring participants' peripheral neuropathy induced by chemotherapy. The total score ranges from 0 to 65 with higher scores indicating more severe chemotherpay induced peripheral neuropathy.
