          Para este análisis preliminar, los datos son tomados de dos grupos: 100 mujeres sanas y 61 pacientes diagnosticadas con cáncer de seno, las cuales reciben tratamiento en el hospital universitario de la ciudad de Bogotá. Para la medición de las creencias espirituales y religiosas se utilizaron algunas escalas del FETZER y para los niveles de ansiedad y depresión se utilizó el HADS.

          Data from two groups, 100 healthy women and 61 breast cancer patients that were treated at University Hospital in Bogotá was used for this preliminary analysis. In order to measure spiritually and religiosity some scales of the FETZER test were used. The levels of anxiety and depression were measured by using the HADS scale. No significant differences in the levels of anxiety and depression between the two groups were found. There are some interesting findings on the relationship between religious values and levels of anxiety.

          International experiences with the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale--a review of validation data and clinical results.

          More than 200 published studies from most medical settings worldwide have reported experiences with the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) which was specifically developed by Zigmond and Snaith for use with physically ill patients. Although introduced in 1983, there is still no comprehensive documentation of its psychometric properties. The present review summarizes available data on reliability and validity and gives an overview of clinical studies conducted with this instrument and their most important findings. The HADS gives clinically meaningful results as a psychological screening tool, in clinical group comparisons and in correlational studies with several aspects of disease and quality of life. It is sensitive to changes both during the course of diseases and in response to psychotherapeutic and psychopharmacological intervention. Finally, HADS scores predict psychosocial and possibly also physical outcome.

              Religiousness and spiritual support among advanced cancer patients and associations with end-of-life treatment preferences and quality of life.

              Religion and spirituality play a role in coping with illness for many cancer patients. This study examined religiousness and spiritual support in advanced cancer patients of diverse racial/ethnic backgrounds and associations with quality of life (QOL), treatment preferences, and advance care planning. The Coping With Cancer study is a federally funded, multi-institutional investigation examining factors associated with advanced cancer patient and caregiver well-being. Patients with an advanced cancer diagnosis and failure of first-line chemotherapy were interviewed at baseline regarding religiousness, spiritual support, QOL, treatment preferences, and advance care planning. Most (88%) of the study population (N = 230) considered religion to be at least somewhat important. Nearly half (47%) reported that their spiritual needs were minimally or not at all supported by a religious community, and 72% reported that their spiritual needs were supported minimally or not at all by the medical system. Spiritual support by religious communities or the medical system was significantly associated with patient QOL (P = .0003). Religiousness was significantly associated with wanting all measures to extend life (odds ratio, 1.96; 95% CI, 1.08 to 3.57). Many advanced cancer patients' spiritual needs are not supported by religious communities or the medical system, and spiritual support is associated with better QOL. Religious individuals more frequently want aggressive measures to extend life.
