Psychological distress in patients with detected pulmonary nodules from lung cancer screening

Psychological distress is highly prevalent among patients with LDCT-detected PNs. Surgical resection is significantly associated with anxiety, depression, and insomnia, while surveillance alone offers limited psychological benefit. Early identification of vulnerable subgroups is crucial to guide integrated clinical and psychological care and inform patient-centered management strategies.

Abstract

Psychological distress is highly prevalent among patients with LDCT-detected PNs. Surgical resection is significantly associated with anxiety, depression, and insomnia, while surveillance alone offers limited psychological benefit. Early identification of vulnerable subgroups is crucial to guide integrated clinical and psychological care and inform patient-centered management strategies.
