“…(15,16) In this sense, several studies indicate that breast cancer treatment causes many changes in the patient's life concerning autonomy and independence, which could generate psychosocial problems. (1,(17)(18)(19)(20) In accordance with other studies, (21,22) women reported that dependency and loss of identity could cause anxiety and fears. These feelings could impair their emotional function and quality of life, which is intensified among those who have undergone cancer treatment.…”

“…In the population assessed in this study, physical and psychological limitations were associated with poor socioeconomic conditions and low education levels, characteristics that resulted in a persistent state of emotional distress. A study conducted in the Brazilian state of São Paulo showed that, among cancer patients under treatment, almost half interrupted daily activities, mostly paid activities, which contributed to decreased family income and increased socioeconomic cost in the country (Martins et al, 2009). Having to stay away from work affects quality of life in this population, negatively affecting the patients' economic stability and social relations (Tevaarwerk et al, 2013).…”

“…Maintaining work activities can improve treatment outcomes, as well as recovery and healing processes. However, most patients have to stay away from work at some point because of the treatment, and an advanced stage of disease makes it even more difficult to manage work and treatment at the same time (Martins et al, 2009). A high number of symptoms leads to greater interference with the daily life of cancer patients.…”

“…Les symptômes entravent bel et bien la vie quotidienne des patients et nuisent, entre autres, à leur fonctionnement physique et psychologique général(Pan et al, 2012;Berry, 2011).Dans le groupe à l'étude, les limites physiques et psychologiques étaient associées à de mauvaises conditions socioéconomiques et à de faibles niveaux de scolarité, causant un état de détresse émotionnelle persistant. Une étude menée dans l'État brésilien de São Paulo a montré que, parmi les patients atteints de cancer qui recevaient des traitements, près de la moitié avaient interrompu leurs activités quotidiennes, principalement leur travail rémunéré, ce qui contribuait à diminuer le revenu familial et à faire grimper les coûts socioéconomiques du pays(Martins et al, 2009). Cet arrêt du travail nuisait à la qualité de vie des patients, à leur stabilité économique et à leurs relations sociales(Tevaarwerk et al, 2013).…”
