“…In light of the above findings, we tested the following two hypotheses: First, selfreported coping patterns would significantly predict variance in side effects when other influential variables like socioeconomic status [34], type of chemotherapy [35,36], and satisfaction with social support [37][38][39][40][41] were held constant. Second, confrontive copers would experience fewer side effects than avoidant-resigned, avoidant-confrontive, or resigned copers.…”

“…Three variables have previously been identified as influential in predicting quality-of-life outcomes. These include socioeconomic status [34], type of chemotherapy [35,36], and satisfaction with social support [37][38][39][40][41]. While these are the only three variables that have been identified in the past as robust predictors of quality of life, the most conservative approach to testing the hypotheses was to control for any variables that might theoretically have an influence on side effects.…”

ÖzetAmaç: Meme kanseri, yalnızca hastayı değil, aynı zamanda aileyi de etkileyen ciddi bir hastalıktır. Bu nedenle, kansere psikolojik uyum sürecinde, sağlıklı aile işlevleri önem arz etmektedir. Bu çalışmada metastatik olmayan meme kanseri olgularında aile işlevlerinin ve depresyonla ilişkisinin değerlendirilme-si amaçlanmıştır. Gereç ve Yöntem: Çalışmaya en az 6 ay süreden beri meme kanseri tanısı almış Evre2 ve Evre 3'te metastazı mevcut olmayan toplam 45 hasta dahil edilmiştir. Tüm olgulara sosyodemografik veri formu, Beck Depresyon Ölçeği (BDÖ), Beck Anksiyete Ölçeği (BAÖ) ve aile işlevlerini değerlen-dirmek amacıyla Aile Değerlendirme Ölçeği (ADÖ) uygulanmıştır. Verilerin istatistiksel incelemesi SPSS 15,0 paket programı ile yapılarak, sürekli ve kategorik değişkenler tanımlayıcı istatistikle sunulmuştur. Değişkenler arasında-ki ilişki Pearson korelasyon analizi ile değerlendirilmiştir. Analizlerde p<0.05 değeri anlamlılık düzeyi olarak kabul edilmiştir. Bulgular: Hastaların ortalama BDÖ ve BAÖ puanları sırasıyla 12.53±8.58 ve 12.53±9.94 olarak bulundu. ADÖ'ye göre, olguların çoğunluğunda problem çözme alt ölçeği haricinde, iletişim, roller, duygusal tepki verebilme, gereken ilgiyi gösterebilme ve davranış kontrolü alt ölçeklerinin tamamında işlevsellikte bozulma saptandı. Genel fonksiyonlar alt ölçeği ise olguların %93.3'ünde sağlıksız işlevsellik olarak değerlendirildi. Roller ve duygusal tepki verebilme alt ölçeklerinin BDÖ puanı ile negatif bir ilişkisinin olduğu belirlendi. Tartışma: Meme kanserli hastalarda aile işlevlerinin belirgin olarak bozulduğu bulunmuştur. Kanserli hastaların, aile içerisindeki rol değişiklikleri ve duygusal tepkilerini iletememeleri, depresif yakınmalarını artırmaktadır. Meme kanserli olgularda aileyi de kapsayan, özellikle rol dağılımı ve duyguların sağlıklı şekilde aktarımına odaklanılan terapötik yaklaşımlar faydalı olacaktır. Anahtar KelimelerMeme Kanseri; Aile İşlevleri; Depresyon Abstract Aim: Breast cancer is a serious disease affecting not only the patient but also the family. Thus, healthy family functioning is essential during the psychological adjustment process of the cancer. This study aimed to determine the family functioning and the relation with depression in non-metastatic breast cancer patients. Material and Method: A total of 45 patients with Grade 2 or 3 non-metastatic breast cancer patients whom were diagnosed at least for 6 months were included in the study. A sociodeographic data form, Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI) and Family Assesment Device (FAD) to evaluate family functioning were applied to all patients. Statistical analysis of the data was performed using SPSS for windows version 15.0, continuous and categorical variables were presented as descriptive statistics. The correlation between the variables were determined with Pearson's correlation analysis. A value of p<0.05 was accepted statistically significant. Results: The mean score for BDI and BAI were 12.53±8.58 and 12.53±9.94, respectively. All the subscales excep...

“…A pesar de que para muchas mujeres esta es una experiencia de vida, muchas enfrentan esta crisis sin desarrollar trastornos psiquiátricos o sexuales graves (48) . Algunos estudios informan que la mayoría de las parejas se ajustan bien al episodio de cáncer, y hay casos donde se reporta incluso una mejora en la calidad general de la relación (49,63) . Desde un punto de vista más positivo, la experiencia de cán-cer o de cualquier otra enfermedad grave puede constituir una oportunidad para aprender nuevas habilidades y revalorar ciertos aspectos de la relación.…”

ResumenEl cáncer de seno es considerado un problema de salud pública, en la medida en que actualmente se presenta como uno de los factores más comunes de morbimortalidad en mujeres de países de todo el mundo, y de Colombia. Aunque se haya verificado un aumento importante en el número de sobrevivientes de cáncer de seno, la vivencia de esta enfermedad puede comprometer aspectos relacionados con la sexualidad, lo que implica atribuir mayor relevancia a los procesos de adaptación psicosocial, y a su impacto en la calidad de vida de estas mujeres. Este estudio busca evaluar los niveles de satisfacción sexual de pacientes con cáncer de seno. Para esto, se recolectaron datos de 100 mujeres sanas y de 84 pacientes con diagnóstico de cáncer de seno, en un hospital universitario en la ciudad de Bogotá. AbstractBreast cancer is currently considered a public health problem, since it is one of the most common factors of morbidity and mortality in women in countries around the world, and also in Colombia. Although there has been an increase in the number of breast cancer survivors, the experience of the disease may compromise sexuality aspects, which highlights the importance of the process of psychological adaptation, and its impact on the quality of life of these women. This study aims to assess the levels of sexual dissatisfaction in patients with breast cancer. For this purpose, 100 healthy women were interviewed and their answers were compared to those of 84 patients diagnosed with breast cancer, contacted through a university hospital in Bogotá. The Index of Sexual Satisfaction (ISS) and the Supplementary Questionnaire Breast Cancer Module (EORTC QLQ BR-23) were applied. The results showed significant differences in the level of sexual dissatisfaction in both groups (t (156) = 9.33, p<0.001), where the group of patients was less dissatisfied with their sexuality (M=24.6, SD=17.5), compared with the group of healthy women (M=46.9, SD=12.4). The treatments that are mostly CUANDO EL CÁNCER DE SENO NO SIGNIFICA INSATISFACCIÓN SEXUAL.
