Depression risk among breast cancer survivors: a nationwide cohort study in South Korea
This study demonstrates a significant association between breast cancer and depression, with a particularly heightened risk in younger survivors within the first year post-diagnosis. Special attention is needed to meticulously screen for depressive symptoms during the early follow-up years for breast cancer survivors who are premenopausal or have undergone chemotherapy and endocrine therapy.
