Distress and mental health care and medication use among survivors of multiple primary cancer diagnoses: Findings from the 2016 National Health Interview Survey.
J Psychosom Res. 2020 May 11;134:110137
Authors: Andrykowski MA, Goedendorp MM
Abstract
OBJECTIVE: Over 1 million survivors of multiple primary cancer (MPC) diagnoses reside in the USA. Information regarding their physical and mental health status is limited. This study examined distress and mental health care use among MPC survivors relative to survivors of a single primary cancer (SPC) diagnosis.
METHODS: Using the 2016 National Health Information Survey, MPC survivors (n = 265), SPC survivors (n = 2103), and no cancer controls (NCC; n = 28,320) were identified. The MPC group was compared to the SPC and NCC groups with regard to multiple distress indices and use of mental health care and anxiety and depression medication.
RESULTS: Relative to the SPC group, the MPC group reported more Total Distress (M = 9.59 vs. 8.84; p < .001), and were more likely to report daily or weekly anxiety feelings (OR = 2.07; p < .001), meet criteria for serious psychological distress (OR = 1.49; p = .02) and have talked to a mental health professional (OR = 1.75; p = .01). Comparison of MPC and NweCC groups yielded similar results. The MPC group did not differ from the SPC or NCC groups in severity of anxiety or depression feelings, distress interference, or anxiety and depression medication use.
CONCLUSIONS: MPC survivors reported greater distress relative to SPC survivors. The clinical significance of this greater distress is unclear, however. While MPC survivors were more likely to have talked to a mental health professional, uptake of mental health care appeared to be suboptimal. MPC and SPC survivors might be considered distinct subgroups and increased attention devoted to potentially unique mental and physical health needs of MPC survivors.

Positive affect and functional somatic symptoms in young adults.
J Psychosom Res. 2019 Oct 23;127:109847
Authors: Acevedo-Mesa A, Rosmalen JGM, Ranchor AV, Roest AM
Abstract
BACKGROUND: Functional Somatic Symptoms (FSS) are symptoms for which an underlying pathology cannot be found. High negative affect (NA) has been linked to the etiology of FSS, but little is known about the role of Positive Affect (PA).
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to test if PA is related to current and future lower levels of FSS. We also examined the interactions between PA and NA, and PA and sex on FSS.
METHOD: Data from the Dutch Tracking Adolescents’ Individual Lives Survey (TRAILS) cohort were used (N = 1247 cases, 60% females, mean age T5 = 22.2, T6 = 25.6). PA was measured with the PANAS schedule and FSS with the Adult Self Report questionnaire (ASR). A Principal Component Analysis (PCA) was performed on the physical complaints subscale of the ASR. Regression analyses with bootstrapping were performed to assess the associations and interactions.
RESULTS: PA had a significant negative association with current FSS when adjusted for NA, age, sex and socioeconomic status (B = -0.004; BCa 95% CI = [-0.006; -0.002]), but the association was not significant longitudinally. No interactions were found. In secondary analysis, PA was significantly related to the component “General Physical Symptoms” (B = -0.019; BCa 95% CI = [-0.0028; -0.011]) but not to the component “Gastrointestinal Symptoms” (B = -0.008; BCa 95% CI = [-0.016;0.001]) in the cross-sectional analysis.
CONCLUSION: In conclusion, high PA was significantly related to current lower levels of FSS, but the effect was small. Further research on individual variations in affect is needed to obtain more insight in their contribution to FSS.
