    Pluridisciplinarité et méthodes pour la recherche en SHS dans le domaine du cancer
    )
    Abstract L’interdisciplinarité est l’objet d’une forte promotion institutionnelle et d’une abondante publication scientifique tant sur son histoire, sa définition, ses typologies, que sur ses freins et défis. Il s’agit de proposer ici un retour d’expérience sur l’élaboration d’une question de recherche dans un travail interdisciplinaire. Nous présenterons le parcours qui a conduit d’une question de gestion administrative à un doctorat en philosophie de la médecine sur les soins de support grâce à une collaboration riche entre une grande diversité d’acteurs académiques, hospitaliers et associatifs. Une analyse de la littérature permettra de montrer comment la longue histoire More >

    Psycho-Oncologie, DOI:10.32604/po.2024.052607
    Abstract Background: Keratinocyte carcinoma (KC) is a common malignancy characterized by a high recurrence rate and considerable psychological distress. The incidence of KC is increasing in China, raising concerns about its psychological consequences and adverse effects on quality of life. Demographic and clinical factors are thought to influence mental health outcomes in these patients. Nonetheless, data on the prevalence of anxiety in Chinese patients with KC and the factors associated with this anxiety are notably lacking. Therefore, a comprehensive investigation into the anxiety of patients with KC is imperative. Objective: This study aimed to investigate the… More >

    Nevena Stojadinović1, Goran Mihajlović1, Marko Spasić1, Milena Mladenović1, Darko Hinić2,*
    Psycho-Oncologie, DOI:10.32604/po.2024.050122
    Abstract Breast cancer is considered one of the most frequent causes of morbidity and death in women. Individuals’ response to information regarding health threats and illness can influence the adjustment of the treatment to existing conditions including the issues of non-completion of treatment or non-attendance at medical appointments. The study aimed to examine the relationship between illness perception, body image dissatisfaction and (mal)adaptive coping styles in breast cancer patients. A sample of 197 patients with diagnosed breast cancer hospitalized at the Center for Oncology and Radiology, Kragujevac, Serbia, was surveyed. The instruments included sociodemographic questionnaire, a… More >

    Abstract Cet article vise à éclairer les enjeux de continuité et de reprise du dialogue interdisciplinaire entre médecins et psychologues d’orientation psychanalytique sur le terrain de la recherche, après que cette collaboration se soit institutionnalisée et pérennisée sur le plan institutionnel. A partir de la mise en regard de deux dispositifs de recherche se situant dans le prolongement l’un de l’autre sur un même terrain de recherche, nous questionnerons les modalités de négociation du dialogue interdisciplinaire et les voies par lesquelles il se manifeste sur le terrain de la recherche, médié par la rencontre entre soignants More >

    Fear of Cancer Recurrence in Women with Gynecological Cancer: A Systematic Review

    Şerife Büyükokudan1, Öznur Körükcü2,*
    Psycho-Oncologie, DOI:10.32604/po.2024.046627
    Abstract Although some types of gynecological cancer have a poor prognosis and high recurrence rate, less is known about the fear of cancer recurrence (FCR) in gynecological cancer patients than in other cancer populations. Psychosocial problems may be experienced more in gender-specific cancers. In order to prevent future health problems related to FCR, it is critical to identify the factors affecting FCR in different subgroups and to develop various interventions. The aim of this study was to review the literature on the factors affecting the FCR in women diagnosed with gynecological cancer and interventions to reduce… More >

    SCHOOL DIFFICULTIES in Children Cancer Survivors: A Narrative Review and a Teacher Point-of-View

    Fanny Delehaye1,2,3,*, Caroline Fayet2, Julien Lejeune4
    Psycho-Oncologie, DOI:10.32604/po.2024.042737
    Abstract School difficulties are common in children cancer survivors and may be prognostic for the success of the patient social reintegration after the disease. Here, we carry out a narrative review of the literature from 2001 to 2022 to assess the school difficulties of these patients, the predictive factors of these difficulties, and the possible long-term consequences. We punctuate this review the practical point-of-view of a teacher dedicated to our hospital, who works with children with chronic diseases such as cancer. Therefore, we expose possible barriers and solutions to improve the scholar reintegration and limit the More >

    Psycho-Oncologie, DOI:10.32604/po.2024.048087
    Abstract Colorectal cancer (CRC) poses significant physical and psychological challenges that necessitate an exploration of factors influencing post-traumatic growth (PTG) for patient well-being. This study aims to investigate the effects of positive psychological capital (PsyCap) and perceived stress on mediating the social support-PTG relation among 673 CRC patients. Social support, positive PsyCap, perceived stress, and PTG were assessed through questionnaires. The results indicated a direct prediction effect of social support on PTG (LICI = 0.481, ULCI = 0.644), with the direct effect being 59.5%. Both positive PsyCap and perceived stress exerted a mediating role in the… More >

    Psycho-Oncologie, DOI:10.32604/po.2024.047213
    Abstract The need for home palliative care is increasing in all Western countries. Community pharmacists are local professionals whose role in end-of-life care at home remains poorly understood. The aim of this study is to understand how community pharmacists see their role in end-of-life home care in France, and to analyze their experiences of this care. An online questionnaire was distributed to community pharmacists working in France between December 2022 and March 2023. Of the 136 respondents to the questionnaire, 87% had accompanied at least one patient at the end of life in the 3 months… More >

    Psycho-Oncologie, DOI:10.32604/po.2024.046496
    Abstract In pediatric advanced cancer, i.e., when cancer-targeted treatments are not effective, care provided to patients is of palliative nature. It aims at limiting symptoms and optimizing quality of life (QoL). To orient care, it is necessary to know and measure what is really important for young people. Unfortunately, tools are still scarce in this context. The aim of this paper is to describe the development process of a new QoL assessment method, the Advance QoL program. This is specifically designed for the clinical context of pediatric advanced cancer. Three previous studies carried out by our… More >

    Psycho-Oncologie, DOI:10.32604/po.2024.043073
    Abstract The posttreatment period is a key part of the management of pediatric cancer. During this time, school and psychological difficulties have been described in childhood cancer survivors (CCS) and can be prognostic for the success of social reintegration. This study estimated the influence of the household’s socioeconomic status (SES) on these psychosocial difficulties. This study is based on a prospective multicentric database and focused on children who received a psychosocial evaluation during their follow-up from 2013 to 2020. We retrieved data on school and psychological difficulties. Household SES was estimated by a social deprivation score.… More >

    Supporting Bereaved Families with Young Children

    Pour un accompagnement des familles endeuillées avec un enfant en bas âge

    Marthe Ducos1,*, Voskan Kirakosyan1,2, Nathalie Duriez3,4
    Psycho-Oncologie, DOI:10.32604/po.2023.043390
    Abstract Aims: The violent death of a young parent from cancer has a profound effect on both spouse and children. The family must adapt to the absence of the bereaved and reorganize to raise the children as best they can. Very young children are particularly vulnerable, as they are generally unable to express their suffering. To give them a voice, we have designed an innovative system, The Little Match Girl, as part of a health democracy approach. Procedure: We assessed the effects of their participation in the group for a population of eight children and their parents. The… More >
