Publication Open Access Quality of life of male breast cancer survivors: a systematic review(Wiley, 2025-04-30) López Wilson, Arleen; Leite, Ana Carolina Andrade Biaggi; Soto Ruiz, María Nelia; Escalada Hernández, Paula; García Vivar, Cristina; Ciencias de la Salud; Osasun ZientziakIntroduction: Breast cancer treatments signifcantly infuence the quality of life of cancer survivors. While most studies havefocused on female breast cancer survivors, data on the quality of life of men who have undergone medical, surgical or radiologicaltreatments for breast cancer are limited. Objective: To evaluate the quality of life of male breast cancer survivors. Methods: A systematic review was conducted according to the PRISMA statement with a search in four databases: PubMed,Embase, Cochrane and Web of Science. We screened and extracted data and assessed the methodological quality of the studies viathe Cochrane RoB-2 and ROBINS-I tools for randomised clinical trials and follow-up studies, respectively. Te data werepresented in a narrative synthesis format. Results: In total, 993 records were identifed, of which three studies were included for analysis: two randomised clinical trials andone cohort study. Te interventions in the randomised clinical trials involved evaluating the impact of endocrine therapy and theimplementation of online physical training. Although there was a reduction in the overall quality of life during cancer treatment,patients who received tamoxifen monotherapy did not report a clinically signifcant change in their sexual function. Additionally,moderate exercise was shown to improve physical health and enhance social well-being. In the cohort study, quality of life andsymptom burden were evaluated in men with breast cancer treated with endocrine therapies at the time of diagnosis via symptomassessment scales. Conclusions: Male breast cancer survivors experience a decrease in quality of life during and after treatment. While tamoxifenmonotherapy preserves sexual function, moderate-intensity physical rehabilitation signifcantly improves both quality of life andsocial functioning. Te limited number of studies included in this review highlights the need for further research to address thephysical, psychological and social needs of male breast cancer survivors.Publication Open Access Extended and long-term cancer survivorship of childhood survivors: a scoping review of nursing evidence with bibliometric analysis(Lippincott, Williams & Wilkins, 2024-06-10) Leite, Ana Carolina Andrade Biaggi; Nascimento, Lucila; Neris, Rhyquelle Rhibna; Soto Ruiz, María Nelia; Escalada Hernández, Paula; San Martín Rodríguez, Leticia; García Vivar, Cristina; Ciencias de la Salud; Osasun ZientziakBackground: With the increasing survival rates of childhood cancer, nurses' familiarity with published evidence has become crucial to care for this population and their families throughout the survival process. Objective: to systematically identify and conduct a bibliometric analysis of nursing-related evidence concerning extended and long-term survival of childhood survivors. Methods: a scoping review was conducted using bibliometric analysis with searches performed in the PubMed, CINAHL, SCOPUS, and Web of Science databases. A total of 300 studies on childhood cancer survival within the nursing field were included. Results: the first study on this topic was published in 1975. American and Chinese researchers lead study publications, primarily publishing in nursing journals such as Cancer Nursing. Quantitative designs were prevalent, and the majority of the studies focused on physical late effects, overall quality of life, and survivor follow-up care. Conclusions: this study has allowed us to map and synthesize the bibliometric evidence pertaining to the extended and long-term survivorship of childhood cancer survivors in the nursing field. Consequently, it identifies gaps in knowledge, research trends, and areas necessitating further exploration. Implications for practice: the evidence presented in this review can facilitate academic and clinical discussions, offering a comprehensive synthesis of the published knowledge. More research needs to be developed on the topic, particularly in Central and Latin America, Africa, Southern and Eastern Europe, and in some regions of Asia. Furthermore, the scope of studies should extend beyond late effects and quality of life, encompassing the experience of surviving childhood cancer, including psychosocial and spiritual dimensions.
