Description
Paula Alexandra Blanaru and co-authors test a Romanian quality of life survey for cancer survivors in a 2026 study. As more people live long after cancer, tools must capture both broad well-being and issues tied to the disease itself. The survey at issue has twelve parts, and this study checked its Romanian form in women who had breast cancer.
More than two hundred women took part. Scores were steady and reliable across all twelve parts, and the parts mostly formed clear groups, though thinking problems blurred with fear of the cancer returning. Women in cities scored higher on thinking problems, while women in the country scored higher on family strain. Three broad profiles of quality of life emerged. The authors judge the survey fit for use, with more checks to come.
