“…Regarding the data related to OQoL assessed with QLQ-C30, it was possible to observe that there are changes in both HSCT modalities. During the course from cancer diagnosis to survival, changes in QoL and in the cognitive function can occur; therefore, their identification is necessary as they represent complications with a high improvement rate when treated (18). A review study that aimed to determine the association between HSCT, anxiety, depression, and psychological quality found that the anxiety and depression rates were higher in HSCT survivors when compared to values of the general population.…”

Objective: To assess and correlate overall quality of life and the cognitive function of adult patients with hematologic cancer subjected to autologous and allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantations up to three years after treatment. Materials and method: A longitudinal, observational, and analytical study was conducted with 55 patients in a reference hospital in Latin America, from September 2013 to February 2019, with the Quality of Life Questionnaire-Core 30, analyzed with the Spearman’s correlation coefficient and Generalized Linear Mixed Model tests. Results: Overall quality of life in autologous and allogeneic transplantations presented a decline in the pancytopenia phase (59.3 and 55.3, respectively). There was impairment of the cognitive function in the autologous group in post-transplantation after two years (61.90) and, in the allogeneic group (74), in pancytopenia. In the autologous group, a positive (0.76) and significant (p < 0.04) correlation is observed between the cognitive domain and quality of life in post-transplantation after two years. In the allogeneic group, there was a positive (0.55) and significant (p < 0.00) correlation from 180 days after transplantation. Conclusions: Quality of life and the cognitive function present impairment and there is a correlation after the hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for both groups: autologous and allogeneic.

“…Cancer is a systemic and multifactorial disease characterized by rapid, abnormal and uncontrolled cell growth that culminates in the formation of invasive and poorly delimited tumors. These anomalous cells can spread throughout the body through the circulatory system and reach different tissues, constituting metastases [1].…”

“…The treatment of choice for the various types of cancer, which currently has the greatest prospect of cure, is chemotherapy. These drugs are transported to various tissues of the body through the bloodstream, reaching small, difficult-to-access tumor cells and destroying them [1,2]. The advance of technology in chemotherapy combined with the early diagnosis of the disease has increased the chances of a cure for breast cancer [4].…”

“…However, other symptoms may arise, such as mucositis, diarrhea, anorexia, stomatitis, abdominal pain and discomfort [5]. Depression, anxiety and fatigue are also side effects of chemotherapy [1], as well as anemia, general malaise and insomnia [4]. In addition, there is a reduction in steroid hormones in the body that can lead to a precipitous menopause.…”

The aim of this study was to describe the influence of physical activity practice by women with breast cancer undergoing chemotherapy treatment and its side effects. This is a descriptive, cross-sectional study with a quantitative approach, carried out from September to November 2015. Among the women interviewed who practice physical activity, walking was the most prevalent activity (49.5%). There was a predominance of the presence of symptoms in women who do not engage in physical activity, however, among those who do not have symptoms, those who do not engage in physical activity predominated. The most common symptoms reported by them were nausea and fatigue, both corresponding to the group of women who did not perform any activity. It is concluded that the regular practice of physical activity brings with it several beneficial factors for the body and presents itself as a determining factor for the reduction of side effects in patients with breast cancer undergoing chemotherapy.

Aproximadamente 17% a 50% das pacientes com câncer de mama (CM) sofrem de comprometimento cognitivo após a conclusão do tratamento quimioterápico. Com essas manifestações negativas, inúmeros métodos vêm sendo aplicados para minimizá-las, como terapia cognitiva comportamental, treino cognitivo, treinamento de memória, programas de exercícios resistidos e caminhada. Atualmente, a Estimulação Transcraniana por Corrente Contínua (ETCC) também está sendo cogitada como possibilidade terapêutica. Este trabalho teve como objetivo verificar, com base na literatura, os efeitos da referida estimulação nos déficits cognitivos decorrentes da quimioterapia em pacientes com CM. Realizou-se uma revisão integrativa, com publicações dos últimos 10 anos nas bases de dados PubMed, Scielo, LILACS, Science Direct e Cochrane. Utilizando-se descritores em português, inglês e espanhol, indexados nas plataformas DeCS e MeSH com o auxílio do operador booleano AND. Ao final, 2 artigos compuseram a amostra. Os estudos evidenciaram boa tolerância e viabilidade relacionadas ao uso da corrente, bem como melhoras nos escores dos testes de cognição global, atenção, função cognitiva autorreferida e qualidade de vida. Ao passo que apontaram caminhos metodológicos e resultados favoráveis ao uso da ETCC, suscitaram novas possibilidades para futuras pesquisas. Trata-se de um método não farmacológico, de baixo custo e seguro para a população em questão.Palavras chave: Corrente contínua, tratamento quimioterápico, tratamento fisioterapêutico.
