Non-Pharmacological Interventions for Managing the Symptoms of Depression in Women with Breast Cancer: A Literature Review of Clinical Trials
Overview
This literature review examines clinical trials on non-pharmacological interventions for managing depression symptoms in women with breast cancer. It notes that therapies like cognitive behavioural therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy may help patients with moderate to severe symptoms, while physical exercise and mindfulness may benefit those with mild symptoms. The resource also highlights potential benefits for comorbid anxiety and sleep quality, though it calls for more research into the molecular mechanisms involved.
