Emotional distress and quality of life in high and moderate penetrance germline mutations carriers diagnosed with breast cancer: a preliminary study

This preliminary study suggests that genetic risk classification may influence the psychosocial experience of breast cancer patients, with high penetrance mutation carriers experiencing greater distress in specific areas. These findings highlight the need for personalized psychosocial support based on genetic profiles and warrant further investigation in larger, longitudinal cohorts.

Abstract

This preliminary study suggests that genetic risk classification may influence the psychosocial experience of breast cancer patients, with high penetrance mutation carriers experiencing greater distress in specific areas. These findings highlight the need for personalized psychosocial support based on genetic profiles and warrant further investigation in larger, longitudinal cohorts.
