“…Applying clinical significance to a broader range of clinical populations can show how treatment response rates differ according to population. Temple et al (2020) in an individual patient data meta-analysis found a 30% recovery rate for patients being treated for emotional distress concurrent with a breast cancer diagnosis. They found that this rate is lower than other studies of mental health interventions that typically find recovery rates from 40% to 70%.…”

“…Although there are many factors in daily life that can become the risk factors of breast cancer, some unhealthy behaviors can be prevented to reduce the risk of breast cancer. The methods and measures to prevent breast cancer include receiving breast cancer screening in hospitals, maintaining a healthy diet, keeping a reasonable weight, drinking moderately and limiting food consumption, exercising the body at least once a week, preventive medications and preventive surgery among people with high risk of breast cancer, and everyone can follow these to prevent the occurrence and the risk of breast cancer (Temple et al, 2020).…”

Background: Breast cancer is now regarded as the main health concern worldwide and among Egyptian women. Addressing the unfulfilled needs of the women with mastectomy is essential as neglecting their needs during different stages of the treatment have a negative impact on the women's health system. Aim: evaluate the effect of structured training program on health needs and practices of women undergoing modified radical mastectomy. Design: A quasi experimental research design (pre and post-test) was utilized. Setting: the general surgery Departments and outpatient breast clinic at Oncology and Nuclear Medicine Center affiliated to Ain Shams University Hospitals. Subjects: A purposive sample of 120 women. Tools for data collection: 1) A structured interview questionnaire; it included three parts: (a) Socio-demographic characteristics; (b) Medical history; (c) Women's Health Needs. 2) An observational checklist to evaluate practices of the studied women. Results: The study revealed a statistical significant difference between total needs pre / post and follow up the structured training program implementation with p <0.001. As well there were a statistical significant differences between pre / post and follow up structured training program implementation among the studied women's satisfactory practices level with p <0.001. Conclusion: It concluded that, structured training program had a positive effect on meeting health needs and improving practices level. Recommendation: Conduct complete health assessment & regular followup for all women after mastectomy to identify unmet needs and early detection of the complications.

“…Although preliminary data from a non-randomised short-term CBT trial found a reduction in depressive and anxious symptoms following a 4-session intervention (Díaz et al, 2016), CBT has not been widely or rigorously evaluated in ALS. However, wider studies indicate that CBT achieves only modest treatment effects across physical health conditions (e.g., Wolfgang, 2013;Temple et al, 2020), and likely is also of limited utility in ALS given that cognitive appraisals are often accurate; for example: "I have no control over my ALS, " "I'm not going to get better, " or "I can't control my symptoms." A model and associated intervention which focuses on how and why people respond to negative thoughts, such as those captured by illness perceptions, may therefore be more useful for understanding distress experienced by people with ALS.…”

ObjectiveApproximately half of all people living with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) experience persistent or recurrent emotional distress, yet little is known about the psychological processes that maintain emotional distress in this population. The self-regulatory executive functioning (S-REF) model specifies that maladaptive metacognitive beliefs and processes are central to the development and maintenance of emotional distress. This study explored whether maladaptive metacognitive beliefs are associated with emotional distress after controlling for demographic factors, time since diagnosis, and current level of physical functioning.DesignIn a cross-sectional design, 75 adults with a diagnosis of ALS completed self-report questionnaires. Participants had a mean age of 60.40 years, mean duration of symptoms 63.92 months, and male:female gender ratio of 14:11.Main Outcome MeasuresQuestionnaires assessed emotional distress (HADS, adapted for ALS), physical functioning (ALSFRS-R), repetitive negative thinking (RTQ-10), metacognitive beliefs (MCQ-30), and demographic factors.ResultsMaladaptive metacognitive beliefs explained additional variance in emotional distress after controlling for age, gender, time since diagnosis, physical functioning, and repetitive negative thinking. Repetitive negative thinking partially mediated the relationships between positive and negative metacognitive beliefs and emotional distress.ConclusionsThese data support the utility of the metacognitive model in understanding emotional distress in people with ALS. Examination of the temporal relationship between maladaptive metacognitive beliefs and emotional distress in people living with ALS may help to guide the development of therapeutic approaches.
