Psychology from the University of Bordeaux, France conducted a laboratory psychologists 10 years of follow-up study to verify the anxiety, body image, social support and coping style on the survival time of breast cancer patients predict.
Study in January 1993 to January 1995 for the first time between the selection of patients diagnosed with breast cancer study, 75 patients eventually collect valid data. After 10 years of diagnosis, nearly half of the patients survived.
The results showed that none of the physiological factors (such as age, cancer stage, etc.) can predict the length of survival time.
In addition, the study also found that anxiety can predict a longer survival time. That is, compared with patients with less anxiety and anxiety in patients with breast cancer survive longer. This may be because the anxiety was the result of breast cancer patients are always trying to eliminate the negative impact, mobilizing all resources to improve their living conditions, ways to prevent cancer recurrence and metastasis. Moderate anxiety as to enable candidates to better test, as the anxiety that breast cancer patients become more healthy way of life, life becomes more dynamic, the longer survival time.
