The patients are being asked to take part in this clinical trial because they received cancer treatment as a child at St. Jude. The study comprehensively examines sleep among three distinct diagnostic groups of survivors in the SJLIFE cohort: ALL, CNS tumors, and non-CNS solid tumors. Primary Objective The primary aim of this protocol is to estimate the prevalence of various sleep disorders among long-term survivors of childhood ALL, CNS tumors, and non- CNS solid tumors. Exploratory Objective The exploratory objective of the study is to explore associations between the prevalence of sleep disorders and clinical outcomes collected in SJLIFE.
A cross-sectional pilot study that will enroll participants for on-campus or remote study activities. The investigators anticipate a targeted evaluable accrual of 120, 40 within each of the three groups identified above. The plan is to employ remote polysomnography and surveys to assess patterns of sleep disorders. These assessments could be done in the homes of survivors or during campus visits.

The participant will be asked to complete the sleep surveys and sleep diary, FACIT fatigue, and CSALTS Pain Survey These questionnaires will take about 29 minutes to complete. The sleep diary is completed at the time the participant wears the sleep device.
All echocardiograms will be performed using a General Electric VIVID-7. The LV volume, mass and EF will be calculated using the recommendations of the American Society of Echocardiography
PFTs will include spirometry, lung volume measurements by body plethysmography and single breath carbon monoxide-diffusion capacity (DLCO).
The Sleep Profiler PSG2/WatchPat device will be used to assess nighttime sleep disorders.
This is a test of how your heart and lungs respond to exercise.

Insomnia Severity Index (ISI)
ISI is a seven-item questionnaire that looks at symptoms of clinical insomnia. The ISI assesses insomnia symptoms over the past 14 days and has demonstrated good reliability and validity. The total ISI score ranges from 0 to 28, with scores \< 8 indicating no significant insomnia.
Time frame: Baseline
CSALTS Sleep Survey
CSALTS Sleep Survey incorporating Epworth Sleepiness Scale (EPS) and Pittsburg Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) The CSALTS Sleep Survey assesses sleep quality, patterns, and daytime sleepiness. It incorporates 19 questions from the PSQI and 8 questions of the ESS. The PSQI and ESS total scores will be reported.
Time frame: Baseline
Morningness-Eveningness Questionnaire (MEQ)
The MEQ is a 19-question measure that assesses the degree to which respondents are active and alert at certain times of the day. Each item is rated using a Likert-type scale with lower scales reflecting a more evening-type characterization of alertness. Global scores range from 16 to 86 and these values are used to define 'definitely morning type' (70-86), 'moderately morning type' (59-69), 'neither type' (42-58), 'moderately evening type' (31-41), and 'definitely evening type' (16-30).
Time frame: Baseline
Circadian Type Inventory (CTI)
CTI is an 11-item questionnaire that looks at rigidity/flexibility of sleeping habits and ability/inability to overcome drowsiness (i.e., circadian rhythm disorders). Respondents use a 5-item, Likert-type scale to answer questions regarding their sleep habits and preferences. Scales range from 1 ("almost never") to 5 ("almost always"). Higher scores on the rigidity subscales indicate a greater flexibility in circadian rhythm, while lower scores on the overcoming-drowsiness subscale indicate a greater ability to manage on less sleep.
Time frame: Baseline
Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy Fatigue Scale (FACIT)
fatigue scale is a short 13-item tool that provides a single measure of an individual's level of fatigue during a usual day.
Time frame: Baseline
CSALTS Pain Survey
The 7-item pain survey will include pain interference questions from the SJLIFE Behavioral Survey and one pain intensity question. The six items that measures amount of pain interference in daily activities in last 7 days is measured from "not at all" to "very much." The pain intensity question is measured 1-10 with 10 "worst imaginable pain."
Time frame: Baseline for 2 nights
Polysomnography Evaluation (Sleep Profiler PSG2 or WatchPAT)
The Sleep Profiler PSG2 measures brain waves during sleep, blood oxygen levels, heart rate, and breathing and will measure different patterns of sleep stages. Two nights of data collection will be requested though one night will be sufficient if the participant sleeps at least 4 hours. The apnea hypopnea index and sleep efficiency scores will be reported. The WatchPAT device assesses sleep timing, sleep staging, and sleep apnea events via a device worn on the wrist that measures limb movement, peripheral arterial tone and connects to an EKG electrode. Two nights of data collection will be requested though one night will be sufficient if the participant sleeps at least 4 hours. The apnea hypopnea index and sleep efficiency scores will be reported
Time frame: Baseline
Sustained Attention -Conners Continuous Performance Test 3rd Ed or CNS-VS CPT.
Computerized test of omissions, variability, and reaction time, requiring participants to respond to letter stimuli on the screen quickly and accurately, while avoiding targets. These three scores will be reported in T scores.
Time frame: Baseline
Memory-California Verbal Learning Test 2nd Ed.
Orally administered test of verbal learning, short-term and long-term verbal free-recall memory, requiring participant to learn and remember a list of words, measured in T-score and z-scores.
Time frame: Baseline
Executive Functions -Trail Making Test or CNS-VS Shifting Attention Test
The Trail Making Test is a timed task that requires a participant to shift his/her attention adaptively and flexibly. Considered a measure of cognitive flexibility. Standard score for Trail Making Letter-Word Switching will be reported. Shifting Attention Test (SAT) measure cognitive flexibility with a single standard score.
Time frame: Baseline
Executive Functions- Verbal Fluency Test Controlled Oral Word Association (COWA) or CNS-VS Stroop Test
This is a task of cognitive/verbal fluency. Participants are given a letter and must say as many words that start with that letter within 60 seconds. A single age-adjusted z-score will be reported. Stroop Test (ST) measures cognitive control and fluency with a single standard score
Time frame: Baseline
Executive Functions -Digit Span Backward
Digit Span Backward: Digit Span Backward (DSB), from the Digit Span subtest on the WAIS-IV, is a measure of working memory. The number of digits recalled in the longest span is converted to a standard score using age-based norms. Considered a process score on the WAIS-IV DSB is found to have acceptable reliability and validity parameters.
