The mental health impacts of receiving a breast cancer diagnosis: A meta-analysis
Open accessAbstract
Background Receiving a breast cancer diagnosis can be a turning point with negative impacts on mental health, treatment and prognosis. This meta-analysis sought to determine the nature and prevalence of clinically significant psychological distress-related symptoms in the wake of a breast cancer diagnosis.Methods Ten databases were searched between March and August 2020. Thirty-nine quantitative studies were meta-analysed.Results The prevalence of clinically significant symptoms was 39% for non-specific distress (n = 13), 34% for anxiety (n = 19), 31% for post-traumatic stress (n = 7) and 20% for depression (n = 25). No studies reporting breast cancer patients' well-being in our specific time frame were found.Conclusion Mental health can be impacted in at least four domains following a diagnosis of breast cancer and such effects are commonplace. This study outlines a clear need for mitigating the impacts on mental health brought about by breast cancer diagnosis. CRD42020203990.

From Effectiveness of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) on disease acceptance for breast cancer patients: Study protocol of a randomized controlled trial (2024) · cites this paper as [6]
The Background describes distress ranging from mild to disabling, and the Non-specific distress symptoms section reports a 39.0% prevalence among patients who had just received a breast cancer diagnosis. The paper does not establish the claimed 30%–75% frequency range; its estimate for clinically significant depressive symptoms in pretreatment patients is 19.7%. The claim also generalizes findings about newly diagnosed patients to breast cancer patients overall. (LLM, conf=0.88)

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.
