Symptom burden, psychological distress, and health-related quality of life in cancer survivors with pelvic late radiation tissue injuries

Grete K. Velure et al.

Summary: The study examined the symptom burden, distress, and HRQOL of cancer survivors with pelvic LRTIs, finding that these survivors are more burdened compared to norms. Higher symptom burden and psychological distress were positively associated with lower HRQOL, but distress did not moderate the influence of symptoms on HRQOL. Both coping strategies and treatment interventions are crucial for long-term health and HRQOL promotion.
