“…However, a review performed in Germany with the main QOL studies using the QLQ-C30 to evaluate the pre-and post-HSCT (11) , and another review performed in Chicago (USA) that compared the QOL of patients undergoing autologous and allogeneic HSCT in 105 participants with cancer, showed the patients' age was between 40 and 50 years (12) , which differs from the present study findings. The marital status and number of children in this study corroborate data found in national and international literature, i.e., patients with hematological malignancies are married or in a common-law marriage and have one to three children (12)(13)(14)(15)(16) . In a study on the bond between cancer patients and their families, it was observed that the main companions of patients with neoplasia are children, spouses and parents, and family involvement is critical during the disease process.…”

Objective: to evaluate the impairment of social and emotional domains of hospitalized patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cells transplantation. Method: an observational, longitudinal study with 25 participants evaluated in the period of pre-transplant, pancytopenia and pre-hospital discharge between September 2013 and September 2014, in a reference hospital for this treatment modality in Brazil. Two international instruments were used, both of which translated and adapted to Portuguese (Brazil): Quality of Life Questionnaire-Core 30 and Functional Assessment Cancer Therapy -Bone Marrow Transplantation. Results: patients have shown a statistically signifi cant decrease in the social domain, and stability of the emotional function along the course of treatment. Conclusion: hematopoietic stem cell transplantation changes the social function of patients with hematologic cancer during hospitalization stage. Thus, patients should receive guidance addressing the social domain in order that it can be less affected.

“…Thirty-two participants were involved and statistically significant results were also found for the schooling variable in relation to the Social function, with a better assessment for those with a higher schooling level. 18 Recognized as socioeconomic factors, education and income promote interactions and influences health, as an individual's purchasing power has a direct effect on this person's education and, consequently, on this person's health. The person with a higher schooling level is likely to get a better salary and thus can better meet the health demands: access to health services, medical appointments, medications, health insurance, good living conditions, among others.…”

RESUMO Objetivo: avaliar a qualidade de vida relacionada à saúde de pacientes com câncer em cuidados paliativos e sua associação com aspectos sociodemográficos e clínicos. Método: estudo analítico, transversal, do qual participaram 127 pacientes. Foram utilizados instrumentos de caracterização sociodemográfica e de avaliação de qualidade de vida - European Organization for Research and Treatment for Cancer. Para análise dos dados, aplicaram-se os testes Kolmogorov-Smirnov, Mann-Whitney e Kruskal-Wallis. Resultados: na avaliação de qualidade de vida, o Estado de Saúde Global e Função Desempenho de Papel tiveram pior avaliação; na Escala de Sintomas, dor, fadiga, insônia e perda do apetite tiveram destaque. Na associação dos domínios do instrumento de coleta de dados com as variáveis sociodemográficas houve associação significativa da idade e escolaridade com função cognitiva, e de renda mensal com estado geral de saúde; com as variáveis clínicas houve associação significativa de metástase com função física; radioterapia com função social, e tempo de hospitalização com Escala Funcional. A Escala de Sintomas apresentou associação significativa de fadiga com metástase, quimioterapia e tempo de hospitalização; dor com quimioterapia e tempo de hospitalização; insônia com procedimento cirúrgico e perda de apetite com quimioterapia. Conclusão: o prejuízo na capacidade funcional, decorrente do câncer, afeta a capacidade do paciente de desempenhar atividades da vida diária, as relações sociais e a situação financeira. Aspectos sociodemográficos e clínicos devem ser considerados na avaliação da qualidade de vida desses pacientes, de forma a possibilitar atenção humanizada e integralizada aos princípios do Sistema Único de Saúde vigentes no Brasil.

“…This might be related to the adverse reactions of chemotherapy and less side effects of radiotherapy for blood cancer patients, which depend on the dose of the treatment, the part of the body being exposed to radiation, the length of radiation period and other factors. A study in Brazil (Andrade, Sawada & Barichello, 2013), revealed that the emotional and cognitive side effects of chemotherapy negatively influenced the QoL of hematologic oncology patients.…”

Data was obtained through direct interview, using FACT-G questionnaire, version 4, and was managed through a statistical program, using appropriate statistical tests. Results:The emotional domain was the least affected one in both study groups (P = 0.800), while the physical domain reflected a significant statistical differences (P < 0.001); it was mildly affected in 92% of those with radiotherapy and moderately affected in 47% of those on chemotherapy. The social and functional domains were the most badly affected with a significant difference in the functional domain only (P <0.001) where 93% of those on radiotherapy being badly affected. The functional well-being of breast cancer was more affected among those with radiotherapy (P = 0.039), while the physical domains of quality of life of patients with gastrointestinal tract cancer was more badly affected by chemotherapy (P = 0.001). Conclusion:Patients on chemotherapy are more badly affected in some domains of quality of life, compared to those on radiotherapy. The emotional domain of QoL was the least affected, while the social and functional domains were the most badly affected ones among cancer patients, whether they were treated with radiotherapy or chemotherapy.
