Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction for Breast Cancer—A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Overview
This systematic review and meta-analysis evaluates the effectiveness of mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) and mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT) for patients with breast cancer. The authors analyzed three randomized controlled trials involving 327 subjects to assess impacts on health-related quality of life and psychological health. Results indicate that MBSR may be superior to usual care in reducing depression and anxiety, though the authors note a need for further research to support these findings.
