Abstract: The findings of two meta-analyses of trials of psychological interventions in patients with cancer are presented: the first using anxiety and the second depression, as a main outcome measure. The majority of the trials were preventative, selecting subjects on the basis of a cancer diagnosis rather than on psychological criteria. For anxiety, 25 trials were identified and six were excluded because of missing data. The remaining 19 trials (including five unpublished) had a combined effect size of 0.42 standard deviations in favour of treatment against no-treatment controls (95% confidence interval (CI) 0.08-0.74, total sample size 1023). A most robust estimate is 9.36 which is based on a subset of trials which were randomized, scored well on a rating of study quality, had a sample size >40 and in which the effect of trials with very large-effects were cancelled out. For depression; 30 trials were identified, but ten were excluded because of missing data. The remaining 20 trials (including six unpublished) had a combined effect size of 0.36 standard deviations in favour of treatment against no-treatment controls (95% CI 0.06-0.66, sample size 1101). This estimate was robust for publication bias, but not study quality, and was inflated by three trials with very large effects. A more robust estimate of mean effect is the clinically weak to negligible value of 0.19. Group therapy is at least as effective as individual. Only four trials targeted interventions at those identified as-at risk of, or suffering significant psychological distress, these were associated with clinically powerful effects (trend) relative to unscreened subjects. The findings suggest that preventative psychological interventions in cancer patients may have a moderate clinical effect upon anxiety but not depression. There are indications that interventions targeted at those at risk of or suffering significant psychological distress have-strong clinical effects. Evidence an the effectiveness of such targeted interventions and of the feasibility and effects of group therapy in a European context is required.

 

 

2Title: does routine screening for breast-cancer raise anxiety - results from a 3 wave prospective-study in england

Abstract: Objective - To investigate whether mammography raises anxiety in routinely screened women who receive a negative result.

Design - Prospective design in which women completed questionnaires at three key points in the breast screening process: at baseline (before being sent their invitation for breast screening), at the screening clinic immediately before or after screening, and at follow up, about nine months after baseline. Information was obtained from non-attenders as well as from attenders.

 

Setting - Bromelia District Health Authority, served by the South East London Breast Screening Service.

 

Participants - Two overlapping samples were used. Sample A comprised 1500 women aged 50-64 who were due to be called for first round screening at a mobile screening unit. Altogether 1021 (68%) returned a usable questionnaire and 795 of these (78%) also provided adequate information at nine month follow up: there were 695 attenders (including 24 women who received false positive results) and 100 non-attenders. Sample B consisted of 868 women who attended the screening unit in a three month period, 732 (84%) of whom provided adequate data. A total of 306 attenders (including 10 who received false positive results) occurred in both samples and provided adequate information on all occasions. The main analyses were based on these 306 women plus the 100 nonattenders. The analysis of retrospective anxiety took advantage of the larger sample size of 695 attenders.

 

Main results - On average, the women were not unduly anxious at any of the three points in the screening process. Among attenders, there was no difference between anxiety levels immediately before and immediately after screening. Anxiety was lowest at the clinic and highest at baseline but the changes were very small in absolute terms. Anxiety did not predict attendance: there were no differences in anxiety levels between attenders and non-attenders at baseline. As expected, women who received false positive results recalled feeling extremely anxious after they had received the referral letter but their retrospective anxiety was also higher than in the negative screenees at earlier stages in the breast screening process. They also reported having experienced more pain and discomfort during the x ray.

 

Conclusions - Anxiety does not seem to be an important problem in routinely screened women who receive a negative result. This finding is very reassuring in relation to a major criticism of breast screening programmes. Thus, apart from maintaining current procedures such as keeping waiting times to a minimum, there seems to be no need to introduce special anxiety reducing interventions into the national programme. On the other hand, the findings for women who received false positive results suggest that there are aspects of the experience of being recalled for assessment after an abnormal mammogram that warrant further attention. The relationship between contemporaneous and retrospective anxiety should also be studied.

Abstract: The aim of this prospective study was to identify the psychiatric morbidity associated with the diagnosis and treatment of early breast cancer. At each of five time points, 269 women were interviewed using a shortened version of the Present State Examination (PSE) and 266 completed self-assessment questionnaires, the Hospital and Anxiety Depression Scale (HADS) and the Rotterdam Symptom Checklist (RSCL). This paper compares the ability of the questionnaires to detect psychiatric morbidity with that of the PSE. The majority of women who experienced anxiety and/or depression did so within 3 months of their initial surgery. The clinical interview identified anxiety disorder in 132 of 266 women (49.6%) and depressive illness in 99/266 (37.2%) during the first 3 months. Using the recommended threshold of greater than or equal to 11 for caseness, the sensitivities for both tests were very low at 24.2% (HADS anxiety) and 14.1% (HADS depression) and 30.6% (RSCL psychological distress scale). Lowering the threshold value to greater than or equal to 7 on the HADS improved the sensitivity to 72% for the anxiety subscale, but it remained low at 37.4% for the depression subscale. A threshold of greater than or equal to 7 for the RSCL scale raised sensitivity to 66.7%. Lowering the threshold values raised the sensitivity of both the instruments but decreased their specificity: the lower the threshold, the greater the number of women who were identified as false positives which would increase the work load for clinic staff if used as a screening tool. Given that the HADS was inadequate in discriminating for depressive illness, it was not surprising that its use as a unitary scale with a threshold value as low as 12 resulted in a sensitivity of only 42.7%. In the light of these findings, we question the use of both the HADS and the RSCL as suitable research or screening instruments for detection of psychological morbidity in early breast cancer.

Abstract: The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence of anxiety and depression in cancer patients seen at the Norwegian Radium Hospital, using the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), the EORTC QLQ-C33 and an ad hoc designed questionnaire. In addition, information about the patients' malignant disease and treatment was obtained. The prevalence of anxiety and depression among 716 evaluable patients was 13% and 9% respectively, as assessed with HADS. In hospitalised patients, the risk of psychiatric distress was approximately twice that of patients in the outpatient clinic. Female patients reported significantly more anxiety than men. Patients <30 or >70 years old expressed less anxiety than all other patients. Age or gender had no influence on the occurrence of depression. Impaired ability to continue professional work and/or daily life activities, impaired social life and previous psychiatric problems were significantly correlated with anxiety and depression as were impaired physical function, fatigue and pain. The prevalence of depression, but not anxiety, increased in the presence of distant metastases, with less than a month since diagnosis, and with relapse or progression. In the logistic regression analysis, a history of previous psychiatric problems and impaired social life were correlated with both anxiety and depression. Female gender, impaired physical activity and impaired social role function were additional predictive parameters for anxiety, whereas fatigue predicted depression. Careful attention should be paid to cancer patients displaying these problems in order to diagnose and treat depression and anxiety disorders. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd.

Abstract: Objective. The aims of this study were to evaluate psychological distress and quality of life (QOL) in patients with epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) and to examine the relationship between these problems and health and demographic variables.

Methods. Of 344 consecutive patients identified, 246 completed questionnaires. Four dimensions of QOL were assessed including physical, functional, emotional, and social/family well-being, as well as concerns specific to ovarian cancer patients. Depression was measured with the Center for Epidemiologic Studies-Depression (CES-D) scale and anxiety was measured by the State Anxiety Subscale of the Spielberger State-Trait Anxiety Inventory. Performance status was evaluated by the Zubrod score.

 

Results. Sixty-five patients (26%) had early stage disease; 181 (74%) had advanced disease. One hundred twenty-one patients (49%) were under active treatment, while 124 (51%) were seen for posttherapy surveillance. Forty-eight (21%) met CES-D cutoff criteria for a clinical evaluation for depression, and 29% scored above the 75th percentile for anxiety. Performance status was related to depression, anxiety, and QOL problems, except in the domain of social well-being.

 

Conclusions. Clinically significant depression and anxiety may be more prevalent in patients with EOC than previously reported. Future studies of screening for and treating psychological distress are being designed to improve QOL in these women. (C) 2000 Academic Press.

Abstract: In this study 275 women with breast cancer attending ambulatory breast cancer clinics in two sites were evaluated for psychological distress by rising three self-report instruments: a visual analogue scale for psychological distress, the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, and the Brief Symptom Inventory. Results suggest that significant psychological distress exists in ambulatory women with breast cancer; all three instruments effectively measured that level of distress. Implications for the use of these instruments in educating oncological staff members, documentations of psychiatric services are discussed.

Abstract: Background: The emotional functioning (EF) dimension of the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire (EORTC QLQ C33) and the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) evaluate anxiety and depression. We wanted to compare cancer patients' responses to EF with those to HADS, as well as the impact of anxiety and depression on the quality of life (QL) dimensions of the EORTC QLQ C33. Method: A total of 568 cancer patients completed both the EORTC QLQ C33 and HADS at the same occasion. The association between the patients' EF scorings and their HADS scores was analyzed by multiple linear regression. Gender and age were included as covariates. Results: Statistically significant negative relations were found between EF and HADS-A (anxiety), HADS-D (depression) and HADS-T (total score), respectively, with the highest correlation coefficient for HADS-A. Older patients and males reported less emotional distress assessed by the EF scale than younger ones and females with comparable HADS-T or HADS-D scores. Both HADS-A and HADS-D were significantly related to other QL dimensions, and depression was a stronger predictor for reduced QL than anxiety. Conclusion: The EF dimension of EORTC QLQ C33 predominantly assesses anxiety, whereas depression is rated to a lesser degree. Combined with significant age and gender relations, this implies a risk of underdiagnosed depression, if the EORTC QLQ C33 is used as the only instrument to screen for psychological distress in cancer patients. As depression has a stronger impact on global QL of cancer patients than anxiety, the use of an additional instrument is recommended for assessment of depression. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Inc.

Abstract: Little has been done to study the effectiveness of antidepressants in controlling anxiety/depression in a population of cancer patients. A double-blind placebo-controlled study was therefore designed to assess the effectiveness of 20 mg fluoxetine, Of 115 cancer patients who fulfilled entry criteria for levels of distress, 45 patients were randomized to a fluoxetine treatment group (FA) and 46 patients to a placebo group (PA) after a 1-week placebo period designed to exclude placebo responders. The Montgomery and Asberg Depression Scale (MADRS), the Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAS), the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), the Revised Symptom Checklist (SCL90-R) and the Spitzer Quality of Life Index (SQOLI) were used to assess the efficacy of fluoxetine. The response rate, defined by a HADS score lower than 8 after 5 weeks of treatment, was not significantly higher in the FA group (11%) compared to the PA group (7%). Compared to the PA group, patients in the FA group showed a significantly greater decrease in SCL90-R mean total score after 5 weeks, but not a greater decrease in HADS mean score. No difference between the two groups was found in observer-reported assessments (MADRS, HAS and SQOLI). Significantly more drop-outs were observed in the FA group (n=15) than in the PA group (n=7), although the frequencies of side-effects were not significantly different.

Title: ASSESSMENT OF PREOPERATIVE ANXIETY - COMPARISON OF MEASURES IN PATIENTS AWAITING SURGERY FOR BREAST-CANCER

Abstract: We have compared three measurements of anxiety to determine their equivalence in assessing anxiety before surgery. Forty-four patients awaiting breast cancer surgery completed the state scale of the state-trait anxiety inventory (STAI), the hospital anxiety and depression scale (HAD) and a 100-mm visual analogue scale (VAS). Analysis restricted to correlations between the scales gave the misleading impression that VAS scores were inconsistent with those of the HAD and STAI. However, when scores were considered in relation to normative cut-off values to categorize anxiety levels, the three scales showed good agreement. We conclude that the scales were equivalent in their assessment of anxiety before surgery, but that reference to normative data was important in establishing such equivalence and in determining the patient's state.
