Linear regression analysis of relationship among mindfulness level,endocrine treatment compliance and quality of life of breast cancer patients
Abstract：Objective:To probe into the relationship among mindfulness level and endocrine treatment compliance and quality of life of breast cancer patients .Methods :A total of 168 cases of breast cancer patients w ho received the first systemic adjuvant endocrine therapy were evaluated by using Chinese version of mindful attention awareness scale(MAAS) and breast cancer endocrine therapy compliance scale ,then combining with the evalua-tion results of patients’ quality of life to analyze .Results:The total scores of mindfulness level ,treatment com-pliance and quality of life were respectively (78 .2 ± 8 .4) ,(12 .1 ± 4 .3) ,and(42 .6 ± 9 .8) .The scores of quality of life and treatment compliance in high mindfulness level group were significantly lower than those in low mind-fulness level group(P<0 .05) .Pearson correlation analysis showed that the total score of mindfulness level had a negative correlation with the score of treatment compliance and the score of quality of life respectively ( P<0 .01) . Logistic linear regression analysis showed that the three dimensions of mindfulness (observation ,description and perception actions)could predict 55 .6% variance of treatment compliance and 53 .1% variance of quality of life .Conclusion:The level of mindfulness could effectively predict endocrine treatment compliance and quality of life of patients with breast cancer .Measures should be taken to improve the patients’ mindfulness awareness , and then to improve the endocrine treatment compliance and quality of life .
