“…Literature review about cancer stigma revealed that lung cancer has the highest level of stigma because of patients' lifestyle and personal responsibility attributions in etiology. Other types of cancer were also not exempt from this phenomenon (7)(8)(9). Generally, cancer is a threatening factor for psychological and physical health and as a chronic condition can affect patients' adjustment after diagnosis and throughout the treatment process.…”

Background: Adjustment to cancer as a stressful event is affected by bio-psycho-social factors. Objectives: This study aimed to investigate stigma phenomenon, the process of formation, and its impact on cancer patients and their families. Methods: This research was conducted based on the grounded theory study. Semi-structured interview was used with 12 cancer patients (7 women and 5 men), one of the immediate family members (spouse, parent or sibling) and 8 oncology staff members. Participants were selected in a purposeful non-probability sampling method and data analysis was performed in three steps: open coding, axial coding and selective coding. Results: Four conceptual categories with sub-categories were emerged through three-step analysis of the grounded theory study: social stigma, self-stigma, coping strategies and acceptance as a main concept. Results showed gradual process of stigma formation to cancer and its different dimensions. Conclusions: Comprehensive assessment of stigma through various information sources may provide a deep understanding of this phenomenon in social context. The results of this study may lead to development of effective therapeutic protocols for promotion of community awareness, and improvement of mental health levels in patients and their families by eliminating all dimensions of this phenomenon in the context of society.

“…Para a construção da revisão integrativa é indispensável percorrer as seis etapas seguintes: identificação da questão de pesquisa, estabelecimento de critérios para inclusão e exclusão de estudos, definição das informações a serem extraídas dos estudos selecionados, avaliação dos estudos incluídos na revisão integrativa, tabela síntese dos estudos, interpretação dos resultados e síntese do conhecimento (Mendes, Silveira, Galvão, 2008;Whittemore, Knafl, 2005 Os objetivos dos estudos permearam a intenção dos pesquisadores em conhecer as percepções, experiências, temas-chaves, atitudes e crenças (Chapple, Ziebland, McPherson, 2004;Scott et al, 2015;Hamann et al, 2013;Brown-Johnson, Cataldo, 2013;Lehto, 2014;Marlow, Waller, Wardle, 2015) dos pacientes com câncer de pulmão, as relações entre estigma e vergonha, culpa, depressão, ansiedade, angústia, bem-estar, sintomas físicos, qualidade de vida e crescimento pós traumático (LoConte et al, 2008;Else-Quest et al, 2009;Gonzalez, Jacobsen, 2012;Cataldo, Jahan, Pongquan, 2012;Lebel et al, 2013;Cataldo, Brodsky, 2013;Brown-Johnson, Brodsky, Cataldo, 2014,;Shen et al, 2014,), os fatores que influenciam no atraso do relato dos sintomas e busca por atendimento (Tod, Craven, Allmark, 2008;Carter-Harris, 2015), desenvolver um instrumento para medir o estigma percebido (Cataldo et al, 2011), reduzir a Cataldo Lung Cancer Stigma Scale (Carter-Harris, Hall, 2014, traduzir e validar essa escala para os chineses (Yang et al, 2014) e descrever uma intervenção cognitivo-comportamental (Chambers et al, 2015).

BackgroundPsychosocial impacts of lung cancer screening (LCS) can cause both harm to individuals and serve as barriers to screening participation and adherence. Early data suggest that the psychosocial impacts of LCS are moderated by certain factors (e.g. sociodemographic characteristics and beliefs), but evidence synthesis is lacking. This systematic review aimed to understand individual‐level risk factors for psychosocial burden during LCS as a precursor to developing strategies to identify and support participants, and improve LCS engagement.MethodsFour databases were searched for full‐text articles published in English reporting any association between participant factors and psychosocial outcomes experienced during LCS. Study quality was assessed by two independent investigators; findings were synthesised narratively. The review was pre‐registered with PROSPERO and adhered to PRISMA guidelines.ResultsThirty‐five articles were included; most (33/35) studies were assessed at high or moderate risk of bias. Study designs were pre‐post (n = 13), cross‐sectional (n = 13), qualitative (n = 8) and mixed‐methods (n = 1) and conducted primarily in the United States (n = 17). Psychological burden in LCS varied, and was often associated with younger age, female gender, current smoking status or increased smoking history, lower education, lower socio‐economic group, not being married or co‐habiting and experience with cancer. However, results were mixed, and non‐significant associations were also reported across all factors. Beliefs (e.g. fatalism, stigma and expectation of LDCT results) and comorbid psychological burden were also linked to psychosocial outcomes, but evidence was sparse. Associations between risk perception, other participant factors and other psychosocial outcomes was inconclusive, likely reflecting individual biases in risk conceptualisation.Conclusion(s)Several participant factors are consistently reported to be associated with psychosocial impacts of LCS, though study heterogeneity and high risk of bias necessitate more robust evaluation. Further research on how perceptions, beliefs and expectations can be used to improve psychosocial outcomes during LCS is needed.
