“…Del mismo modo, y a pesar de que el riesgo social es mayor en las esposas, al comparar a los hijos que conviven o no con el paciente, del-Pino-Casado et al ( 2019) observaron que los niveles de sobrecarga, problemas sociales, depresión, ansiedad y estrés, eran mayores en los primeros. Sin embargo, otros trabajos no obtuvieron una relación significativa entre la edad del cuidador y la carga percibida (Enright et al, 2020).…”

“…There is an interaction of patients’ and family caregivers’ intimacy through verbal or nonverbal means on the premise of mutual understanding, care, and trust, thus satisfying the need for love and belonging and generating psychological and physical closeness [ 9 ]. Some studies show that for diseases such as stroke, dementia and colorectal cancer, good intimacy can buffer the effect of stress on patients and family caregivers and play a significant moderating role between depression and their quality of life, helping them to go through the distressing experience associated with the disease [ 10 – 12 ]. Currently, domestic and international studies have focused primarily on the effect of lung cancer on the physical and mental health of patients or family caregivers, with insufficient attention paid to the patient-caregiver intimacy in coping with the disease, and no studies have explored the correlation between depression and intimacy at the dyadic level.…”

Background Cancer impacts both patients and their family caregivers. This study aimed to explore the interdependence between depression and intimacy in lung cancer patients and their family caregivers, providing the basis for developing a patient-caregiver centered dyadic intervention. Methods This cross-sectional study recruited 182 dyads of lung cancer patients and their family caregivers using a convenient sampling. The depression subscale of the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) and the Mutuality Scale (MS) were used to measure participants’ depression and intimacy respectively; and the correlation between depression and intimacy in patients and caregivers was analyzed by establishing the actor-partner interdependence model. Results Thirty four percent of the patients and 19.2% of the caregivers were at risk of depression, with an intimacy score of 2.67 ± 0.74 points and 2.6 ± 0.86 points, respectively; Pearson correlation analysis showed that there was a positive correlation between the depression score (r = 0.226, P < 0.01) and intimacy score (r = 0.344, P < 0.01) in patients and caregivers; and the results of actor-partner interdependence model showed that caregivers’ depression had an actor effect on their own intimacy (b = -0.054, P = 0.004) as well as a partner effect on patients’ intimacy (b = -0.041, P = 0.011). However, patients’ depression has no influence on the intimacy of patients or caregivers. Conclusions There is an interdependent relationship between depression and intimacy in lung cancer patients and family caregivers. Therefore, dyadic interventions can help them to cope with cancer together.

Objective: To explore the interdependence between depression and intimacy in lung cancer patients and their family caregivers for further developing a patient- and caregiver-centered dyadic intervention. Methods: A convenient sampling was adopted to select 182 dyads of lung cancer patients and their family caregivers; the depression subscale of the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) and the Mutuality Scale (MS) were used to measure participants’ depression and intimacy respectively; and the correlation between depression and intimacy in patients and caregivers was analyzed by establishing the actor-partner interdependence model (APIM). Results: 34% of the patients and 19.2% of the caregivers were at risk of depression, with an intimacy score of 2.67±0.74 points and 2.6±0.86 points, respectively; Pearson correlation analysis showed that there was a positive correlation between the depression score (r=0.226, P<0.01) and intimacy score (r=0.344, P<0.01) in patients and caregivers; and the APIM result showed that caregivers’ depression had an actor effect on their own intimacy (b=-0.054, P=0.004) as well as a partner effect on patients’ intimacy (b=-0.041, P= 0.011). Conclusion: There is a close correlation between depression and intimacy in lung cancer patients and family caregivers. Therefore, dyadic interventions can help them to cope with cancer together.
