Were found improvements in functional capacity (p = 0.030), physical activity (p = 0.010) 26 , force and fatigue (p < 0.050) 29 , range of motion of the arm affected (p < 0.001) 31 , physical function (p = 0.001), left and right hand grip strength (p = 0.001), volume of the left arm (p = 0.028) 24 , and physical aspects of quality of life (p < 0.001) 25 . Statistical calculations were not carried out in some studies, but they presented some qualitative improvemets in physical variables as Serlin et al 32 in fatigue, vigor and tension, Blázquez et al 27 in physical aspects, Ho et al 33 improvement in total functioning and physical symptoms.…”

The authors pointed dance as an effective alternative adjuvant treatment in breast cancer. Dance promotes psychological benefits in women in breast cancer, as well as improvements strength and range of motion in upper limbs. Future studies are recommended with best scientific evidence, in order to investigate interventions with dance during other treatment and disease stage and with other forms of dance.

Objective: To assess quality of life (QOL) of patients operated for breast cancer at early periods and to investigate its relationship to pain, handgrip strength (HS), disability, and emotional status. Material and Methods: Ninety-three female patients, operated unilaterally for breast cancer, were included. QOL by Short Form-36 (SF-36), depression by Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), shoulder pain intensity (rest-movement) by visual analog scale (VAS), handgrip strength (HS) by handheld dynamometer, and disability by Shoulder Pain-Disability Index (SPDI) and Shoulder Disability Questionnaire (SDQ) were evaluated. Results: The mean age of patients was 47.55±8.79 years, and mean time since surgery was 9.52±5.44 months. Shoulder pain during movementrest was 76.3%-41.9%, and depression of 32.2% was detected. The most affected QOL parameters were found to be general health and functional role. There were negative correlations between SF-36 subgroups scores and pain, SPDI, SDQ, and BDI scores (p<0.05). HS was positively correlated with physical function and physical role (p<0.05). Conclusion: Rehabilitation of patients who undergo breast cancer surgery should be focused on QOL and emotional status. The improvement of shoulder pain, disability, emotional status, and HS may enhance the QOL in these patients at early periods. Key Words: Breast cancer, quality of life, depression, handgrip strength, pain, disability Özet Amaç: Meme kanseri cerrahisi geçiren hastalarda, erken dönem yaşam kalitesini (YK) değerlendirmek, YK'nın omuz ağrısı, el kavrama gücü (el KG), dizabilite ve emosyonel durum ile ilişkisini araştırmak. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Çalışmaya, tek taraflı meme kanseri cerrahisi geçiren 93 kadın hasta dahil edildi. Yaşam kalitesini Kısa Form-36 (KF-36), depresyon düzeyi Beck Depresyon Ölçeği (BDÖ), opere edilen tarafta omuz ağrısı (istirahat, hareket), vizüel analog skala (VAS), el KG el dinamometresi, dizabilite Omuz Ağrı Özürlülük İndeksi (OAÖİ) ve Omuz Özürlülük Sorgulaması (OÖS) ile değerlendirildi. Bulgular: Hastaların yaş ortalaması 47,55±8,79 yıl, operasyon sonrası geçen süre ortalaması 9,52±5,44 ay idi. Hastaların %76,3'ünde hareket, %41,9'unda istirahat sırasında omuz ağrısı, %32,3'ünde ise depresyon tespit edildi. En fazla etkilenen QOL parametresinin, genel sağlık ve fonksiyonel rol olduğu saptandı. KF-36 alt-parametre skorları ile omuz ağrı VAS, OAÖİ, OÖS ve BDÖ skorları arasında negatif korelasyon vardı (p<0,05). El KG ile fiziksel fonksiyon ve fiziksel rol pozitif koreleydi (p<0,05). Sonuç: Meme kanseri cerrahisi geçiren hastaların rehabilitasyonu, YK ve emosyonel durum odaklı olmalıdır. Omuz ağrısı, dizabilite, emosyonel durum ve el KG'nin iyileştirilmesi bu hastalarda YK'yı arttırabilir. Anahtar Kelimeler: Meme kanseri, yaşam kalitesi, depresyon, el kavrama gücü, ağrı, dizabilite

We did not find support for an effect of dance/movement therapy on depression, stress, anxiety, fatigue and body image . The findings of individual studies suggest that dance/movement therapy may have a beneficial effect on QoL, somatization, and vigor. However, the limited number of studies prevents us from drawing conclusions concerning the effects of dance/movement therapy on psychological and physical outcomes in cancer patients.
