“…Given the high FoP scores of newly diagnosed lung cancer patients, medical professionals should pay more attention and make a more significant effort to help the younger patients who are at risk for clinical FoP coping with the psychological problem. The interventions including cognitive behavior therapy [ 46 ], mindfulness-based cognitive therapy [ 47 ], acceptance and commitment therapy [ 48 ], and problem-solving therapy [ 49 ] are recommended. As general considerations, internet and professional guidance can be combined to give patients personalized support in the forms of short films, animations, pictures, face-to-face consultation, and telephone consultation.…”

Background More lung cancer cases are becoming diagnosed earlier in recent years. The diagnosis is often accompanied by fear of progression (FoP). There is a clear research gap in the existing literature on FoP and the most frequent concerns in newly diagnosed lung cancer patients. Objective To identify the status and factors related to FoP in newly diagnosed Chinese lung cancer patients undergoing thoracoscopic lung cancer resection. Methods A cross-sectional design with convenience sampling was used in this study. Participants (N = 188) with newly diagnosed lung cancer (≤ 6 months) at one hospital in Zhengzhou were recruited. A demographic questionnaire, Fear of Progression Questionnaire-Short Form, Social Support Rating Scale (SSRS), Simplified Coping Style Questionnaire, and Brief Illness Perception Questionnaire were used to assess characteristics, FoP, social support, coping style, and patient illness perceptions. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was used to identify factors associated with FoP. Results The mean score of FoP was 35.39 ± 8.03. There are 56.4% of the patients (scores ≥ 34) have a clinically dysfunctional level of FoP. FoP was higher in young (18–39 years) than middle-aged patients (40–59 years) and elderly patients (≧60 years) (P = 0.004). Patients aged 40–59 years showed significantly higher fear of family-related concerns (P < 0.001), a fear of potential harm from medications (P = 0.001); Patients aged 18–39 years and 40–59 years showed significantly higher fears of work-related concerns (P = 0.012). Multiple logistic regression analyses showed that patients’ age, the time from surgery and SSRS score were found to be independently associated with higher FoP. Conclusions High FoP is a frequently reported problem among newly diagnosed lung cancer patients, especially those less than 60 years old. Professional psychoeducation, psychological interventions, and personalized support are needed for patients with a high FoP.

“…These items are clinician-rated on a seven-point Likert scale and are summed to produce a total scale score ranging from 0 to 60, with higher scores reflecting greater depression severity. Depression severity can be categorized into normal (0-6), mild depression (7)(8)(9)(10)(11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19), moderate depression (20)(21)(22)(23)(24)(25)(26)(27)(28)(29)(30)(31)(32)(33)(34), and severe depression . This study used the highly reliable Korean version of MADRS [28].…”

“…The total score is calculated by the sum of the scores obtained from each item. The severity of the anxiety can be categorized into normal (0-7), mild (8)(9)(10)(11)(12)(13)(14), moderate (15)(16)(17)(18)(19)(20)(21)(22)(23), and severe .

“…However, the long-term side effects of antidepressants can negatively affect daily life due to gastrointestinal symptoms, neurological symptoms, and sexual dysfunction, limiting the excessive use of medication [7]. On the other hand, non-pharmacological treatments consist of cognitive behavioral therapy, psychotherapy, mindfulness-based therapy [8], exercise training, and music therapy [9,10]. For example, Verrusio et al [9] investigated the impact of exercise training and music therapy on moderate depression patients.…”

Depression is considered a widespread mental health problem worldwide. Moreover, anxiety symptoms are very closely related to depression in patients, and it is known that the coexistence rate of depression and anxiety diagnosed simultaneously is high. Treatment and preventive management of depression and anxiety are essential for public health. Forest healing is attracting attention as a form of low-cost preventive medicine that is safe and has no side effects. However, although the physiological and psychological effects have been scientifically proven, it is insufficient to reveal a direct relationship between forest healing and depression. This study investigated the benefits of an urban forest healing program on depression and anxiety symptoms in depressive disorders. We employed a randomized controlled trial design. Forty-seven depressive patients were randomly divided into an urban forest healing program group and a control group. Measures included the Montgomery-Asberg depression rating scale (MADRS), the Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HARS), and the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) questionnaires. Our results revealed that the combination of general treatment and forest healing programs for patients with depression is more effective in improving depression and anxiety than routine treatment alone. We expect our work to serve as a starting point for more sophisticated research discussing the availability of non-pharmacological treatments in forest healing.

“…For instance, Badr et al 8 found a significant alleviation of depression and anxiety in patients who received six sessions of telephone psychological counselling compared with the usual care group. In addition,cognitive–behavioural therapy9 and music therapy10 have been shown to improve negative emotions in patients with cancer.In routine practice, clinicians have a wide choice of psychological interventions. Although previous meta-analyses have provided an efficacy size among psychological interventions ranging from non-significance,11 12 small to medium,13 and medium to large significance,14 they used traditional meta-analysis methods which can only analyse the efficacy of one intervention.…”

BackgroundThe prevalence of depression and anxiety is high in patients with lung cancer, while multiple psychological interventions have revealed a positive impact on patients’ negative emotions. However, it remains scarce which psychological intervention is the best choice for patients.This study was conducted to compare and rank the efficacy of psychological interventions on anxiety and depression in patients with lung cancer using a network meta-analysis.MethodsThe Chinese academic database (CNKI, Wan Fang and Vip) and English academic database (The Cochrane Library, PubMed, PsycINFO and Web of Science) were searched from their inception to March 2022. Randomised controlled studies of psychological interventions on depression and anxiety in patients with lung cancer were included. Study selection and evaluation were conducted independently by two researchers. Included studies were performed a network meta-analysis to compare and rank the psychological interventions for negative emotions of patients with lung cancer. The clustered ranking of psychotherapies in the network was based on surface under the cumulative probability ranking curve values.Results23 studies (2221 participants) with 13 psychological interventions were retrieved. The random-effects model showed a significantly large effect size of supportive therapy for anxiety (mean difference, MD 14.38, 95% CI 2.42 to 26.21) and depression (MD 14.29, 95% CI 2.74 to 25.70). The supportive therapy, sandplay therapy and music therapy were top three rankings of interventions for anxiety, while supportive therapy, dignity therapy and sandplay therapy were the top three interventions for depression.ConclusionsSupportive therapy would be a more appropriate option for alleviating negative emotions in patients with lung cancer. Other psychological intervention techniques may be used as alternatives, such as sandplay therapy and music therapy for anxiety, dignity therapy and sandplay therapy for depression.PROSPERO registration numberCRD42022320188.
