Optimism, sleep quality, physical activity, and cancer-related cognitive impairment in middle-to-older aged patients undergoing breast cancer treatment
Results suggest that optimism and sleep quality may be associated with better cognitive function in BC patients in the post-surgical period. Interventions that improve optimistic expectancies and sleep quality may help to mitigate CRCI in mid-to-older BC patients initiating treatment.
