Purpose: Cancer is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Although people are living longer with cancer, cancer has the potential to negatively impact survivors’ quality-of-life (QOL). Spirituality encompasses the concepts of transcendence, meaningfulness, faith, connectedness, and integrative energy. Spirituality is a part of everyday existence across cultures and religions and is a part of the human experience. Yet little has been published on spirituality in cancer survivorship. We were unable to find any previous reviews that examined the literature on the potential relationship between QOL and spirituality in cancer survivorship. Thus the aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis is to examine the current literature to more fully understand the relationship between spirituality and QOL. Methods: Using PRISMA guidelines, a systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted to examine the relationship between spirituality and QOL in cancer survivorship in studies sourced from PubMed, CINHAL, and PsycINFO databases. Results: Twenty-four articles, published between 2005 and 2023 were included for review. All studies included demonstrated a significant, positive correlation between QOL and spirituality with r values ranging from 0.15 to 0.817. Conclusion: Our findings suggest a positive correlation between higher spirituality and increased QOL among cancer survivors. Future research is needed to improve the understanding of this relationship and its mediators so that supportive oncologic interventions can be modified to address unmet needs and spiritual suffering. By better understanding the relationship between spirituality and QOL, we can move towards supporting the highest level of QOL possible for cancer survivors.

“…Different events such as traumatic for cancer patients can significantly change the degree and pace, intensity and frequency. For instance, the patients in whom religious practices have positive outcomes claim that their God helped them and enhance their strengths, energies and heal (Lee, Roh, Hsieh, & Park, 2023). They strongly associated religiosity among other things such as illness, difficulties and life lessons given to them by God as a chance or warning, or punishment for moral trespasses.…”

Religious belief and practices are meditative to assist people in confronting problems and an unrestrained prospect that absorbs connection to something greater, sacred, inspirational and intensively tied to a deep sense of entity. It is an integral dimension of an individual's life and recognized as a critical factor in their physical, psycho-social, cultural and health practices which deal with potentially life threatening and chronic diseases like cancer. Religious belief and practices have significant influences on the patient’s support system, emotional stability, enhance decision making, connectedness, acceptance, and even belief in survival among others. Religiosity among cancer patients/survivors manage life stressors and are linked to the notion of divinity; maintain relationship with God, reduction of negativity, improvement in health and quality of life. This empirical study was a cross-sectional research that carried out through the diagnostic survey methods and estimation. The primary data obtained from cancer survivors from Shaukat Khanam trust cancer hospital Lahore through Structured questionnaire along with DSES scale by Lynn G.

Background and Objectives Cognitive impairment and Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD) pose significant challenges for Indigenous populations, necessitating urgent research. Limited evidence suggests that high rates of ADRD among Indigenous peoples are associated with social determinants of health (SDOH), such as education, income, health literacy, religion, and social engagement. Research Design and Methods Collaborating with a Northern Plains tribe, participants were recruited 123 self-identified Indigenous women aged 40 to 70 through a comprehensive recruitment strategy. Employing the SDOH framework, the research assessed cognitive impairment and Alzheimer's disease knowledge, utilizing the Ascertain Dementia 8 and AD knowledge scales (ADK-30). The investigation examined the relationships between selected SDOH variables and cognitive impairment status. Results More than half of the participants showed signs of cognitive impairment, which correlated with lower income and education levels. Increased knowledge about Alzheimer's disease, particularly in terms of treatment management and its life impact subscales, was associated with lower odds of cognitive impairment. Conversely, higher levels of depressive symptoms and participation in religious activities were linked to increased odds of cognitive impairment. Discussion and Implications The findings underscore the importance of culturally grounded tools and SDOH frameworks tailored to Indigenous contexts in addressing ADRD disparities. Future research should integrate historical and cultural factors to advance health equity within Indigenous communities, ultimately mitigating the impact of ADRD and promoting overall well-being.
