Analysis of the link between stress and cancer: implications for patient support
In a world where oncological diseases remain a serious problem for many people, the study of stress management and the provision of psychological support to prevent and treat oncological diseases are becoming increasingly relevant. The purpose of the article is to identify stress mechanisms that affect the human body and provoke the development of cancer.Additionally, it seeks to investigate the global scope of the stress-cancer connection. The methods used in the study include generalisation, analysis, synthesis, and systematisation. The study found that chronic stress can affect the immune system, neurological activity, and other processes contributing to cancer development. In addition, the study has managed to shed light on the mechanisms of stress impact on oncology, including oxidative stress and replication stress, as stimuli that threaten the normal functioning of the human body. A support program for patients with oncological diseases was developed, which included assessment, psychoeducation, methods of stress reduction, and post-treatment support for patients with oncological diseases or those predisposed to them. The study found that the introduction of stress reduction programs for cancer patients is an important step in improving their well-being and treatment outcomes.
