“…Many works still describe research results in reference to the classical view of social support, by listing types of support provided to patients in the group (e.g. Toledo, Ochoa, Farias 2019;Campell Phaneuf, Deane 2004), by comparing support provided traditionally with assistance available on-line (e.g. Houlihan, Tariman 2017), or by focusing on the fitness-related and relationship-forming aspect of physical activity (Ireland, Finnegan-John, Hubbard, Scanlon, Kyle 2018 among others) etc.…”

This work presents the phenomenon of mutual help and social support in a group of patients with breast cancer, against the background of transformations of the whole Amazonki (Amazons) movement. Social organizations embracing women after breast cancer treatment have been operating in Poland for over 30 years. In that time, they have proven their usefulness and importance. Since the beginning of their existence, the Amazons clubs were oriented to providing support, widely understood, to women patients in oncological wards and club members; they have been successful in that area so far. What is important is the fact that individual clubs of women after cancer treatment are not separate social units, but form a federation which, since the early 1990s, has been directing the process of rationalizing their operations. This work describes that process in general and presents the stage at which the Amazons movement is at present. What is interesting, the stagnation which has overcome the whole movement seems to have little or no effect at all on the functioning of separate associations, which pursue their statutory goal to support sick women in recovery and improve their quality of life.Od dostarczania informacji po aktywizację do zmiany społecznego świata. Stowarzyszenia Amazonek jako źródło kompleksowego wsparcia dla kobiet z rakiem piersi Abstrakt Przedmiotem tego tekstu jest zjawisko wzajemnej pomocy i wsparcia społecznego w grupie pacjentek z rakiem piersi, ukazane na tle przemian zachodzących w całym ruchu Amazonek. Organizacje społeczne, skupiające kobiety po leczeniu raka piersi, funkcjonują w Polsce od ponad 30 lat. Przez ten okres dowiodły swojej przydatności i ważności. Od początku swojego istnienia kluby Amazonek zorientowane były na udzielanie szeroko rozumianego wsparcia pacjentkom na oddziałach onkologicznych oraz swoim członkiniom -do dzisiaj dobrze się z tego zadania wywiązują. Istotne jest, że poszczególne kluby kobiet po leczeniu raka nie stanowią osobnych bytów społecznych, ale współtworzą federację, która od początku lat 90. XX w. kieruje procesem racjonalizacji ich działań. W tekście ogólnie ukazano, jak ten proces przebiegał i w jakiej fazie znajduje się obecnie ruch Amazonek. Co ciekawe, stagnacja, która ogarnęła cały ruch, wydaje się nie oddziaływać lub oddziałuje jedynie w niewielkim stopniu na funkcjonowanie poszczególnych stowarzyszeń, realizujących swój statutowy cel, to jest wspieranie chorujących kobiet w powracaniu do zdrowia i w podnoszeniu jakości życia.Słowa kluczowe: wsparcie społeczne, grupa wsparcia, rak piersi, ruch społeczny kobiet, Stowarzyszenie Amazonki, Polska.

Adherence to Endocrine Therapy and Racial Outcome Disparities in Breast Cancer

2021

The disparity in outcomes of breast cancer for Black compared with White women in the U.S. is well known and persistent over time, with the largest disparities appearing among women with hormone receptor-positive (HR+) cancers. The racial gap in breast cancer survival first emerged in the 1980s, a time of significantmen treatment advances in early-stage breast cancer, including the introduction of adjuvant endocrine therapy. Since that time, the gap has continued to widen despite steady advances in treatment and survival of breast cancer overall. Although advanced stage at presentation and unfavorable biology undoubtedly contribute to racial differences in survival of HR+ breast, treatment disparities are increasingly acknowledged to play a key role as well. The recent recognition of racial differences in endocrine therapy use may be a key explanatory factor in the persistent racial gap in mortality of HR+ disease, and may be a key focus of intervention to improve breast cancer outcomes for Black women. The Oncologist 2021;26:910-915 Implications for Practice: Black women with hormone receptor-positive breast cancer experience the greatest racial disparity in survival among all breast cancer subtypes. This survival gap appears consistently across studies and is not entirely explained by differences in presenting stage, tumor biology as assessed by genomic risk scores, or receipt of chemotherapy. Recent research highlights lower adherence to endocrine therapy (ET) for Black women. Health systems and individual providers should focus on improving communication about the importance of ET use, sharing decisions around ET, providing appropriate support for side effects and other ET-related concerns, and equitably delivering survivorship care, including ET adherence assessment.
