Overview

AI-generated summary, not a substitute for reading the source.

This randomized trial investigates the effects of a 6-week Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction program on objective stress markers, specifically salivary cortisol and interleukin-6, in breast cancer survivors. The study compares participants receiving MBSR to a usual-care control group, measuring physiological changes alongside subjective symptoms and quality of life at baseline and six weeks. While no significant differences were found between the groups over the full duration, immediate reductions in cortisol and IL-6 were observed within the MBSR group following specific class sessions.
