与所有其他癌症幸存者相比，拉丁裔癌症幸存者报告的痛苦和抑郁程度较高，社会生活质量和总体健康相关生活质量水平较低。文化价值观影响癌症存活；然而，迄今为止，很少有研究调查拉丁文化的各个方面如何在癌症之旅中治愈。因此，本文的目的是提出一项定性研究的结果，探讨文化对拉丁裔乳腺癌幸存者生活质量的影响。作者使用协商一致的定性研究来了解拉丁裔乳腺癌幸存者的生活经历。
Latina cancer survivors report higher levels of distress and depression and lower levels of social quality of life and overall health-related quality of life when compared with all other cancer survivors. Cultural values influence cancer survivorship; however, little research to date has examined how aspects of the Latina culture may be healing during the cancer journey. Therefore, the purpose of this article is to present findings from a qualitative study exploring the influence of culture on quality of life for Latina breast cancer survivors. The authors use consensual qualitative research to understand the lived experiences of Latina breast cancer survivors.
