摘要

我们研究了癌症相关压力（CRS）在尼日利亚癌症患者社会支持健康相关生活质量（HRQoL）中的中介作用。尼日利亚癌症患者（n=316；女性=64.6%；平均年龄=50.16岁，SD=13岁）完成了感知社会支持、CRS和HRQoL的测量。结构模型数据分析显示，社会支持与较低的HRQoL相关。CRS（侵入域）介导了社会支持和HRQoL之间的关联，因此社会支持与减少癌症痛苦有关，这反过来又导致了HRQoL的改善。这些发现表明，需要改善HRQoL，采用基于认知的治疗，旨在减少癌症患者的CRS。

Social support and health-related quality of life in Nigerian cancer patients: Role of cancer-related stress

We investigated the mediating influence of cancer-related stress (CRS) in social support health-related quality of life (HRQoL) among Nigerian cancer patients. Nigerian cancer patients (n = 316; female = 64.6%; mean age = 50.16 years, SD = 13 years) completed measures of perceived social support, CRS, and HRQoL. Structural model data analysis revealed social support was associated with lower HRQoL. CRS (intrusive domain) mediated the association between social support and HRQoL, such that social support was linked to reduced cancer distress which in turn resulted in improved HRQoL. These findings suggest a need to improve HRQoL, employing cognitive-based therapy aimed at reducing CRS in cancer patients.
