Abstract This study reviews the historical development, current applications, and multifaceted impacts of religious psychological coping on the physical and mental health of cancer patients. As a method for coping with life’s pressures through religious beliefs or activities, religious psychological coping has been proven to alleviate the negative emotions of cancer patients and enhance their spiritual well-being and quality of life (QOL). Research indicates that religious faith can alleviate the physical symptoms of cancer patients, extend survival time, reduce the fear of death, assist in coping with treatment side effects, and improve self-efficacy and overall quality More >

Methods: Data from 596 NSCLC patients, collected between September 2023 and December 2023 at the Cancer Hospital of the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences, were analyzed. Nine clinically and statistically significant variables, identified via univariate logistic regression, were inputted into both BPNN and logistic regression models developed… More >

Abstract Background: Lung cancer, one of the most prevalent and deadly malignancies worldwide, not only poses a significant physical burden but also a profound psychological challenge to patients. Among these psychological challenges, the fear of recurrence stands out as a particularly distressing issue. This fear, often rooted in the patients’ past experiences with the disease and its treatment, can significantly impact their quality of life, mental health, and even compliance with follow-up care. Moreover, this fear can be exacerbated by the lack of understanding and support from healthcare professionals and family members, further isolating patients and… More >

Abstract Arrière-plan: L’information sur la possibilité de rédiger des Directives Anticipées (DA) est une nécessité et représente un enjeu majeur sur les plans médical, éthique, légal. Les difficultés sont nombreuses, organisationnelles ou culturelles, et c’est aussi vrai dans l’univers de la cancérologie, où les DA (et plus largement les discussions anticipées) revêtent une importance cruciale. Sujet éminemment sensible, l’abord des DA (donc d’une réflexion sur la fin de vie) nécessite un travail d’acculturation à la fois sociétale et médico-soignante. Une démarche institutionnelle a donc été élaborée, dans l’objectif d’un déploiement d’outils d’information, de formation des professionnels,… More >

Abstract L’annonce d’une maladie cancéreuse éveille ou renforce pour certains les représentations liées au pouvoir du psychisme sur le corps. L’investigation du champ des théories psychosomatiques convoque les croyances en une psyché garante de la bonne santé somatique. Une confusion dans l’appréhension des concepts liées aux facteurs psychiques comme responsable du bon fonctionnement du corps a, selon nous, des effets dans l’après-coup pour les femmes atteintes d’un cancer du sein. L’étude est menée auprès de six femmes atteintes d’un cancer du sein portant sur l’influence des croyances et des représentations de la maladie cancéreuse du sein.… More >

Abstract In recent years, significant focus has been placed on resilience, with ongoing studies aiming to identify strategies for reducing the negative effects of job stress and protecting nurses from negative psychosocial outcomes. Nevertheless, as far as this topic is concerned, no research has yet been conducted in the context of Saudi psychiatric nurses. The aim of this research, therefore, is to determine how Saudi Arabian psychiatric nurses’ professional quality of life and psychological resilience relate to one another. To this aim, a cross-sectional study has been performed in Saudi Arabia incorporating a population of 167… More >

Abstract Objectifs: L’arrivé du cancer chez les adolescents et les jeunes adultes (âgés de 15 à 24 ans) - adolescents et jeunes adultes (AJA) - correspond à une période fragile pendant laquelle le devenir adulte du jeune et l’évolution des liens familiaux mobilisent la famille dans son ensemble. Dès lors, le cancer, au-delà de sa dimension individuelle traumatique, touche toute la famille, pouvant modifier les liens familiaux et le fonctionnement familial. Notre objectif est d’évaluer le fonctionnement familial à partir du modèle circomplexe évaluant la cohésion et l’adaptabilité, quand un adolescent ou jeune adulte est atteint… More >
