Do cancer patients with high levels of distress benefit more than less distressed patients from outpatient art therapy?

CONCLUSION: No evidence of outpatient art therapy having an effect on QoL in cancer patients over time was found, in patients with either high or low levels of distress at baseline. Consequently, it remains unclear which patients benefit the most from art therapy. PMID: 29031305 [PubMed - in process]
