“…In that sense, it becomes fundamental to understand which psychosocial factors may play a role in the prevention of these conditions and its burdensome consequences. Resilience, perceived social support ( Zhao et al, 2020 ; Tamura, 2021 ), perceived family support ( Su et al, 2017 ) and family communication skills ( Park et al, 2022 ) have been reported in the literature as important protective factors for symptoms of depression and for the adaptation to this life-threatening event. To optimize the prevention of these neuropsychiatric disorders, clinicians and researchers need to be attentive, screen and monitor affective symptoms in patients with cancer ( Walker et al, 2014 ) and, additionally, understand and bolster the psychosocial resources available both for patients and their relatives ( Seiler and Jenewein, 2019 ).…”

BackgroundA diagnosis of cancer, and the resulting treatment process, can be perceived as a life-threatening event, affecting not only patients but also their social network and, more specifically, their relatives. While the ability to cope and adjust to difficult health situations may be challenging, family resilience may optimize a positive adaptation to adversity and contribute to enhance the patient’s quality of life. The Family Resilience Questionnaire (FaRE) is a self-report measure of family resilience that assesses this construct systematically. We aimed to validate the Portuguese version of a short form of the FaRE (FaRE-SF-P) in a sample of women with breast cancer.Methods147 women recently diagnosed with early breast cancer were recruited at the Champalimaud Clinical Centre in Lisbon. Participants completed psychometric assessment including the Portuguese version of the FaRE-SF-P, composed by two subscales of the original version – the FaRE Perceived Family Coping (FaRE-PFC) and the FaRE Communication and Cohesion (FaRE-CC). Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) was performed to assess the factor structure of the FaRE-SF-P. Construct validity was assessed using the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) for divergent validity, and the Modified Medical Outcomes Study Social Support Survey (mMOS-SS) as well as the social functioning subscale from the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire-Core 30 (EORTC QLQ-C30) for convergent validity.ResultsThe CFA results confirmed a correlated two-factor structure model consistent with the Perceived Family Coping and the Communication and Cohesion subscales. Internal consistency reliability indicated good values both for Perceived Family Coping and Communication and Cohesion subscales. The results for construct validity showed acceptable convergent and divergent validity.DiscussionThe FaRE-SF-P showed good psychometric properties demonstrating to be a valid and reliable family resilience measure to use in Portuguese women diagnosed with breast cancer. Since FaRE-SF-P is a short instrument it may be a useful screening tool in an oncological clinical practice routine.

“…Resilience could influence the way patients deal with advanced cancer and treatments through a cognitive reevaluation of the circumstance and the identification of meaning, which finally facilitates adaptation to cancer and improved general well-being (Palacio & Arias, 2018 ). Unfortunately, patients with advanced cancer had only moderate levels of resilience (Kavak et al, 2021 ) due to concerns about death and suffering from side effects of treatments that resulted in physical and psychological pain (Tamura, 2021 ). Moreover, compared to other cancer stages, patients with advanced cancer reported the lowest level of resilience (Aman & Akhtar, 2020 ).…”

“…Depressed persons are less able to maintain or restore their psychological adaptation when faced with stressful life events (Kumpfer, 1999 ). Depression was negatively correlated with resilience in lung cancer (Hu et al, 2018 ), mixed cancer (Mungase et al, 2021 ), and colorectal cancer (Tamura, 2021 ). Previous research examined the relationships, but investigations are scarce on the predicting ability of depression on resilience among adult patients with advanced cancer.…”

“…If anxiety is reduced, patients with advanced cancer may be able to focus on their problems and adapt to their adverse situations successfully. Anxiety was negatively related to resilience among lung cancer patients (Hu et al, 2018 ) and colorectal cancer (Tamura, 2021 ). Despite correlational studies in cancer patients, there was no research on the predictive ability of anxiety on resilience, particularly among patients with advanced cancer.…”

Background: Advanced cancer and its treatments lead to various detrimental impacts on patients. Resilience is an important ability to adapt to such adversity, but there is limited information about its influencing factors, specifically in patients with advanced cancer. Objective: This study aimed to examine the influence of social support, depression, anxiety, hope, optimism, spiritual well-being, religious belief,and hardiness on resilience among adults with advanced cancer. Methods: This cross-sectional research used multi-stage sampling to select 288 participants from a university hospital and three tertiary hospitalsin northern Thailand. Data were collected using a demographic data collection form, the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), the Thai version of the Social Support Questionnaire (SSQ), the Herth Hope Index (HHI), Life Orientation Test-Revised (LOT-R), Buddhist Belief Questionnaire, Health-Related Hardiness Scale (HRHS), and Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC), from February 2021 to February 2022. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation, and regression analysis. Results: Depression (r = -0.47, p <0.01) and anxiety (r = -0.39, p <0.01) had a significant negative relationship with resilience. Spiritual well-being(r = 0.74, p <0.01), hope (r = 0.67, p <0.01), religious belief (r = 0.53, p <0.01), optimism (r = 0.40, p <0.01), social support (r = 0.33, p <0.01), and hardiness (r = 0.21, p <0.01) had significant positive relationships with resilience. Only hope (β = 0.29, p <0.01) and spiritual well-being (β = 0.59, p<0.01) together influenced resilience by 64.70%. Conclusion: Spiritual well-being and hope are crucial to resilience in patients with advanced cancer. Nurses should provide spiritual support to strengthen patients’ ability to adapt successfully to life with advanced cancer.

“…There are numerous studies on the effects of reactive mood disorder on the survival time of glioma patients, but the results obtained differ and have not been unified ( 12 - 14 ). In recent years, studies have gradually recognized the important role of psychological resilience in patients with chronic diseases and malignant tumors ( 15 - 17 ). Psychological resilience refers to the ability of an individual to recover from negative experiences and flexibly adapt to a changing external environment.…”

Background Psychological resilience has played an increasingly important role in the treatment of different diseases and many glioma patients will experience adverse emotional reactions after being diagnosed. However, it remains unclear whether psychological resilience is related to the adverse events and quality of life of patients with glioma. Methods Patients with glioma between March 2016 and July 2020 were included in this retrospective cohort study. Psychological resilience was evaluated by the Connor-Davidson resilience scale (CD-RISC) 1 day before surgery. The European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire (EORTC QLQ)-C30 and EORTC QLQ-BN20 were used for the quality of life (QoL) assessment of the included patients. The relationships between psychological resilience and postoperative adverse events/QoL were determined using multivariable logistic and linear regression analysis, respectively. Some patients were evaluated again after admission, and the patients were divided into an increased resilience group and decreased resilience group for subgroup analysis according to the changes between the two CD-RISC scores. All included patients were followed up for at least 6 months. Results Ninety-seven patients were included in the high resilience group and 284 patients were included in the low resilience group. More neurological complications occurred in the low resilience group than in the high resilience group (18.7% vs. 8.2%, P=0.016). Also, a higher Karnofsky performance scale score and higher psychological resilience contributed to less adverse events. Patients in the high resilience group had higher postoperative global health status scores than those in the low resilience group. Higher educational level, Karnofsky performance scale score, and psychological resilience acted as a protective factor for postoperative QoL. Subgroup analysis showed that the incidence of neurological complications was significantly higher in the decreased resilience group compared to the increased resilience group (22.9% vs. 3.8%, P=0.039). Lastly, better global health status, physical functioning, and role functioning were observed in glioma patients with increased resilience. Conclusions The incidence of postoperative adverse events and QoL of glioma patients are closely related to their level of preoperative psychological resilience. Psychological counseling may also be a part of improving the prognosis of glioma patients.
