“…The correlations were statistically significant and considered good for cancer patients (w/ or w/o cancer treatment), indicating that the instrument is valid for this group (Table 5). The correlation between fatigue and depression, and fatigue and performance status were also observed in other studies with cancer patients (13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18) . However, for caregivers and students, the correlations had unexpected results.…”

O objetivo foi validar o Fatigue Pictogram para uso no Brasil. Os dados foram coletados em quatro ambulatórios de oncologia de São Paulo (SP) e na Escola de Enfermagem da USP. A amostra de conveniência envolveu 584 pacientes com câncer, 184 acompanhantes e 189 estudantes de graduação enfermagem, que responderam ao Pictograma de Fadiga, ao Inventário de Depressão de Beck (IDB) e Escala de Karnofsky (KPS). Foram feitos testes de validade e confiabilidade. O Teste-reteste mostrou que o instrumento tem boa estabilidade. O primeiro item do Pictograma de Fadiga discriminou estudantes de cuidadores de pacientes, mas não pacientes de cuidadores. O segundo item discriminou todos os grupos. Observou-se adequada validade convergente (fadiga e depressão) e divergente (fadiga e Karnofsky). O Pictograma de Fadiga é válido, confiável e fácil de usar para avaliar fadiga em câncer, mas necessita ajustes para uso em pessoas saudáveis.

“…They reported difficulty sleeping and that a lack of exercise, dietary problems, and air pollution contributed to their breast cancer. All of these observations are supported by numerous studies (Stewart et al, 2001;Anderson et al, 2003;Carpenter et al, 2004;Dirksen & Epstein, 2007;Wang et al ., 2010;Ferrucci et al, 2011;Panjari et al, 2011). Causal attributions may impact cancer survivors' quality of life (Stewart et al, 2001;Ferrucci et al, 2011).…”

“…Between 30% and 73% of cancer patients experience difficulty sleeping (Anderson et al, 2003). Specifically, breast cancer survivors are most likely to experience sleep disorders (Carpenter et al, 2004;Epstein & Dirksen, 2007). Causal attributions may impact cancer survivors' quality of life, and psychosocial adjustment (Stewart et al, 2001;Ferrucci et al, 2011).…”

Aims: The purposes of this study were to (1) to identify the causes of cancer in breast cancer survivors in Taiwan; and (2) to investigate the influence of demographic characteristics and breast cancer-related factors on the cause of cancer. Materials and Method: This study details the related investigative results on survivors with breast cancer using a descriptive and correlational design. A convenience sampling approach was employed. A structured questionnaire was used to assess the participants. Results: A total of 230 breast cancer survivors completed the questionnaire. Low-scoring cause of cancer participants were older adults (OR = 2.49, p<0.05) who were already of menopausal status (OR = 2.28, p < 0.05). Around 72% of particpants agreed high responsibility. Our breast cancer survivors felt stress had caused their breast cancer. Conclusions: These findings are helpful in understanding the relationship between cause of cancer and related factors in breast cancer survivors.

“…Other significant lifestyle factors were poor sleep quality (Carpenter et al, 2004;Den Oudsten et al, 2009) and shorter sleep duration (Carpenter et al, 2004). Three studies found poor quality of life was significantly associated with depression (Deshields et al, 2006;Chen et al, 2009;Rabin et al, 2009) in which Rabin et al (2009) found the significance was confined to the domains of physical, psychological and social relations (Rabin et al, 2009).…”

Background: Depression is common in breast cancer patients. The aim of this paper was to make a systematic review of its prevalence and associated factors oin breast cancer survivors. Materials and Methods: An extensive systematic electronic review (PUBMED, CINAHL, PsyINFO and Ovid) and handsearch were carried out to retrieve published articles up to November 2012, using Depression OR Dysthymia AND (Cancer OR Tumor OR Neoplasms as the keywords. Information about the design of the studies, measuring scale, characteristics of the participants, prevalence of depression and its associated factors from the included studies were extracted and summarized. Results: We identified 32 eligible studies that recruited 10,826 breast cancer survivors. Most were cross-sectional or prospective designed. The most frequent instrument used to screen depression was the Center for Epidemiological Studies for Depression (CES-D, n=11 studies) followed by the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI, n=6 studies) and the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS, n=6 studies). CES-D returned about similar prevalence of depression (median=22%, range=13-56%) with BDI (median=22%, range=17-48%) but higher than HADS (median=10%, range=1-22%). Depression was associated with several socio-demographic variables, cancer-related factors, treatment-related factors, subject psychological factors, lifestyle factors, social support and quality of life. Conclusions: Breast cancer survivors are at risk for depression so that detection of associated factors is important in clinical practice.
