The psychological impact of cancer on patients’ partners and other key relatives
Abstract
Partners and other family members are key supports for cancer patients. Most cope well with the caregiving role, but an important minority become highly distressed or develop an affective disorder. Female carers and those with a history of psychiatric morbidity are more vulnerable, as are those who take a more negative view of the patient's illness and its impact on their lives. Carers are likely to become more distressed and develop psychiatric morbidity as the illness advances and treatment is palliative. Carers are also more at risk when they lack a support network of their own and when there are relationship difficulties with the patient. The review discusses why, given this evidence, carers fail to take advantage of interventions designed to help them and those who participate derive only limited psychological benefits.

“Although some of these interventions have become available during the last decade, most partners do not use these interventions because they are not aware of their own health problems, they have a lack of time, or they are reluctant to seek help [2, 3, 8, 9].”
In the citing paper
“Family caregivers of cancer patients exhibit high levels of stress and depression, lower subjective well-being, worse physical health, and higher mortality compared to non-caregivers [2–8, 19–25], yet few studies focus on improving outcomes for caregivers [26].”

“A cancer diagnosis is associated with high levels of distress, leading to frequent anxiety, depression, fear of recurrence/progression, sleep disturbance, and fatigue in both patients and caregivers [1–8].”

“Conversely, longer survival comes at a cost for caregivers: the negative effects of caregiving, including a higher mortality rate, are most pronounced in caregivers of patients with advanced cancer [2, 3, 20], particularly when patients have a protracted disease course [25] and are receiving palliative care [4, 21].”

“Yet we found comparable distress levels in patients and caregivers, and emotional distress in particular may be even higher in caregivers, corroborating previous findings [2–6].”

In the citing paper
“Distress in caregivers contributes to distress in patients [24], in addition to negatively impacting the health of caregivers themselves [2–4, 20, 21, 25], and likely other family members (e.g. many of our participants had young children).”

“Another shortcoming of the existing interventions is that partners of cancer patients seem to make no or only limited use of them [6-8].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
