“…There is conflicting evidence concerning various modes of treatment modalities used in breast cancer and their association with depression (17,27). Some studies have not detected any association with chemotherapy, hormonal therapy, radiotherapy, or surgery, while others showed significant associations with chemotherapy and surgery (17,(27)(28)(29). This current study also confirmed the heterogeneity of findings, given the positive association between depression risk and past target therapy, negative association with current hormone therapy treatment modalities, and no significant association with other treatment options.…”

Breast cancer is the most common invasive malignancy among females worldwide (1). According to the Cancer control programme of Sri Lanka, in 2014, breast cancer accounted for 25.2% of all types of cancers affecting females in Sri Lanka(2). Studies have shown the prevalence of depression in breast cancer to be very high compared to general population figures, although it varies widely across different settings, ranging from 1% to 56% (3,4). Depression is reported to worsen the progression of cancer in many ways; and ultimately, the outcome of the cancer treatment becomes poorer if the patient is depressed (5). Therefore, patients with breast cancer should be screened for depression and offered appropriate treatment if they are found to be depressed.

“…Depressive symptoms in women with breast cancer are reported extremely often, because of a multitude of factors, such as: the manifestation of the disease itself, pain and fatigue, the change in self-image, the impact on their sexual intimacy, the lack of expected support, the fear and the need to adjust to the new situation. The patient's life changes dramatically, immediately following diagnosis, as they need to reconsider their priorities, engage in a new set of behaviors, accept limitations, and restructure their core beliefs [6].…”

The influence of cognitive schemas on the mixed anxiety-depressive symptoms of breast cancer patients

et al. 2020

Background: The surgical treatment of breast cancer involves various psychological consequences, which differ according to individual characteristics. Our study aimed to identify the role that cognitive schemas had in triggering anxiety and depressive symptoms in patients diagnosed with breast cancer that underwent oncological and plastic surgery treatment. Methods: 64 female patients, diagnosed with breast cancer from an Oncology and Plastic Surgery Hospital, were selected to participate in this study between March-June 2018. They were divided into two groups: I. 28 patients who underwent mastectomy surgery; II. 36 patients, who required mastectomy and, subsequently, also chose to undergo breast reconstruction surgery. For the purposes of evaluating a possible change in mental health status, we employed two assessment scales: the Young Cognitive Schema Questionnaire-Short Form 3 (YSQ-S3) and the Romanian version of the Depression Anxiety Stress Scale-21 (DASS-21R). Results: Participants who underwent mastectomy and subsequent breast reconstruction surgery employed cognitive schemas that did not generate symptoms of depression or anxiety. In contrast, the cognitive schemas found in women who refused reconstructive breast surgery were significantly correlated with the presence of anxiety-depressive symptoms. The cognitive schema domain of 'disconnection and rejection' correlated uncertainly with the presence of anxiety-depressive symptoms for the group with breast reconstruction (Spearman's ρ = 0.091, p = 0.644), while for the other group the correlation was moderate-strong (Spearman's ρ = 0.647, p < 0.01). Negative emotional schemas were significantly correlated with the presence of anxiety-depressive symptoms (Spearman's ρ = 0.598, p < 0.01) in the group of participants without reconstructive surgery. Conclusion: A correct identification of dysfunctional cognitive schemas and coping mechanisms at the commencement of the combined treatment in breast cancer patients could serve as an indicator for the evolution of their mental health, therefore assisting professionals in establishing the most suitable psychological, psychotherapeutic and psychiatric intervention plan.
