Uptake of Recommendations for Posttreatment Cancer-Related Fatigue Among Breast Cancer Survivors

Determinants of use of oral complementary-alternative medicine among women with early breast cancer: a focus on cancer-related fatigue
ConclusionOne-in-four patients reported use of OCAM. More severe CRF was consistently associated with its use. Moreover, older, better educated, wealthier, more anxious women, and those receiving chemotherapy seemed more prone to use OCAM. Characterizing profiles of BC patients more frequently resorting to OCAM may help deliver targeted information about its benefits and potential risks.

Perceptions of homeopathy in supportive cancer care among oncologists and general practitioners in France
ConclusionsHomeopathy is viewed favorably as an integrated SCO therapy by the majority of French physicians involved with cancer patients —oncologists and GPs. Symptoms of particular relevance include fatigue, anxiety, peripheral neuropathy, sleep disturbance, and hot flashes. In such clinical situations, response to conventional therapies may be suboptimal and homeopathy is considered a reliable therapeutic option. These two studie s highlight the fact that homeopathy has gained legitimacy as the first complementary therapy in SCO in France.

Complementary and alternative medicine in sarcoma patients treated in an Italian sarcoma center
Conclusions: This study shows that CAM use is frequent among adults and pediatric patients with bone and soft tissue sarcoma as in other cancer patients. Moreover, the profile of these Italian CAM consumers in sarcoma patients is similar to other studies. Patients disclosure to their oncologist or physician about the use of CAM was similar to other Italian studies, but higher compared to other international studies.
