“…Whilst the studies that were included in this review shed light on some of the self-management experiences within a rural-urban setting, they are from countries with different healthcare systems and services in comparison with the UK, thus warranting further investigation in a UK setting. Despite the increasing body of work that explicitly focuses on selfmanagement and cancer within a UK context [13,17,18,[51][52][53][54], there are no studies that have reported data on ruralurban residency in relation to this. Equally, research comparing outcomes between rural and urban people affected by cancer has tended to focus on the post-diagnosis stages, as well as survival rates, and has yet to examine the influence of residency on longer-term survivorship outcomes, such as self-management post-treatment.…”

Purpose Despite wide acknowledgement of differences in levels of support and health outcomes between urban and rural areas, there is a lack of research that explicitly examines these differences in relation to self-management in people affected by cancer following treatment. This scoping review aimed to map the existing literature that examines self-management in people affected by cancer who were post-treatment from rural and urban areas. Methods Arksey and O'Malley's framework for conducting a scoping review was utilised. Keyword searches were performed in the following: Academic Search Complete, CINAHL, MEDLINE, PsycINFO, Scopus and Web of Science. Supplementary searching activities were also conducted. Results A total of 438 articles were initially retrieved and 249 duplicates removed leaving 192 articles that were screened by title, abstract and full text. Nine met the eligibility criteria and were included in the review. They were published from 2011 to 2018 and conducted in the USA (n = 6), Australia (n = 2) and Canada (n = 1). None of the studies offered insight into self-managing cancer within a rural-urban context in the UK. Studies used qualitative (n = 4), mixed methods (n = 4) and quantitative designs (n = 1). Conclusion If rural and urban populations define their health in different ways as some of the extant literature suggests, then efforts to support self-management in both populations will need to be better informed by robust evidence given the increasing focus on patient-centred care. It is important to consider if residency can be a predictor of as well as a barrier or facilitator to selfmanagement.

“…Structured and organized social support and social relationships between cancer survivors and their supporters have an impression of their health and ability to fix self-management practices. Enhances their engagement with health-promoting practices and connects cancer patients within future life aspects [ 10 ]. Social support is crucial for improved quality of life of patients with a chronic disease like cancer.…”
