Abstract
PURPOSE Obesity can increase mortality and morbidity in breast cancer survivors. Healthy lifestyle factors such as diet can help manage weight in this population. This systematic review examined lifestyle interventions with dietary strategies for breast cancer survivors and their effect on diet and/or weight-related outcomes. METHODS Searches were conducted in Ovid MEDLINE® ALL (1946-February 14, 2022), Embase (Elsevier), CINAHL Complete (EBSCO), and APA PsycArticles (EBSCO), using keywords for diet, breast cancer, and intervention. The search was limited to human studies, English language, and publication processing date 2016-2023. RESULTS The search yielded 3427 articles. After title and abstract review, 225 full-text articles were screened, and 67 articles with 61 distinct samples and interventions met inclusion criteria. Of these 61 lifestyle interventions with dietary strategies, 43 interventions also addressed physical activity. Most studies were randomized controlled trials (n = 41) and conducted post-treatment (n = 45). Mean participant age was 54 years. Of 29 studies that reported race/ethnicity, 20 (69%) reported ≥50% White participants. Of 36 that reported dietary outcomes, 29 (81%) reported significant findings. Of 57 that reported weight-related outcomes, 51 (89%) reported significant findings. CONCLUSION This review demonstrated promising evidence for the efficacy of lifestyle interventions with dietary strategies in breast cancer survivors. However, culturally tailored interventions and interventions conducted before and during treatment are lacking.

Abstract
PURPOSE To characterize delivery features and explore effectiveness of telehealth-based cancer rehabilitation interventions that address disability in adult cancer survivors. METHODS A systematic review of electronic databases (CINAHL Plus, Cochrane Library: Database of Systematic Reviews, Embase, National Health Service's Health Technology Assessment, PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science) was conducted in December 2019 and updated in April 2021. RESULTS Searches identified 3,499 unique studies. Sixty-eight studies met inclusion criteria. There were 81 unique interventions across included studies. Interventions were primarily delivered post-treatment and lasted an average of 16.5 weeks (SD = 13.1). They were most frequently delivered using telephone calls (59%), administered delivered by nursing professionals (35%), and delivered in a one-on-one format (88%). Risk of bias of included studies was primarily moderate to high. Included studies captured 55 measures of disability. Only 54% of reported outcomes had data that allowed calculation of effect sizes ranging -3.58 to 15.66. CONCLUSIONS The analyses suggest small effects of telehealth-based cancer interventions on disability, though the heterogeneity seen in the measurement of disability makes it hard to draw firm conclusions. Further research using more diverse samples, common measures of disability, and pragmatic study designs is needed to advance telehealth in cancer rehabilitation. IMPLICATIONS FOR CANCER SURVIVORS Telehealth-based cancer rehabilitation interventions have the potential to increase access to care designed to reduce disability across the cancer care continuum.

Antioxidants (Basel) 2023; 12:1845. [PMID: 37891924 PMCID: PMC10603973 DOI: 10.3390/antiox12101845] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/19/2023] [Accepted: 10/09/2023] [Indexed: 10/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Several studies report that breast cancer survivors (BCS) tend to have a poor diet, as fruit, vegetable, and legume consumption is often reduced, resulting in a decreased intake of nutraceuticals. Moreover, weight gain has been commonly described among BCS during treatment, increasing recurrence rate and mortality. Improving lifestyle and nutrition after the diagnosis of BC may have important benefits on patients' general health and on specific clinical outcomes. The Mediterranean diet (MD), known for its multiple beneficial effects on health, can be considered a nutritional pool comprising several nutraceuticals: bioactive compounds and foods with anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects. Recent scientific advances have led to the identification of nutraceuticals that could amplify the benefits of the MD and favorably influence gene expression in these patients. Nutraceuticals could have beneficial effects in the postdiagnostic phase of BC, including helping to mitigate the adverse effects of chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Moreover, the MD could be a valid and easy-to-follow option for managing excess weight. The aim of this narrative review is to evaluate the recent scientific literature on the possible beneficial effects of consuming functional and nutraceutical foods in the framework of MD in BCS.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Anthracycline chemotherapy is a frequent treatment for breast cancer, whereas it can increase risk of physiologic side-effects, such as metabolic syndrome (MetS). Exercise has been used as a non-pharmacological strategy to decrease MetS. Specifically, high-intensity interval training (HIIT) has been shown to improve MetS in patients with diabetes or cardiac rehabilitation patients; however, the effects of HIIT on MetS and associated biomarkers in patients with breast cancer receiving anthracycline chemotherapy have not been previously explored. Therefore, we purposed to determine the effects of HIIT on MetS in breast cancer patients undergoing anthracycline chemotherapy. METHODS In total, 30 patients with breast cancer were recruited prior to initiating treatment and randomized into HIIT (n = 15) or control (n = 15). The HIIT group attended supervised cycling sessions 3 days/week for 8 weeks. MetS was assessed by waist circumference, blood pressure, fasting levels of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), triglycerides, and glucose. Circulating levels of MetS-related biomarkers were also measured (total cholesterol, insulin, HbA1c, leptin, adiponectin, and c-reactive protein). RESULTS After 8 weeks, MetS z-score was significantly improved in the HIIT group compared with controls (-7.60, 95% CI: -9.08 to -6.13, p < 0.001). MetS variables (HDL-C, glucose, and triglycerides) and circulating levels of MetS-related biomarkers were significantly improved in the HIIT group compared with controls (p < 0.001). Non-significant differences were found in body composition outcomes at the end of the study. CONCLUSIONS HIIT may be an effective strategy to improve MetS in breast cancer patients undergoing anthracycline chemotherapy. Furthermore, changes in MetS were independent of changes in body composition.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chemotherapy is a primary adjuvant treatment strategy for breast cancer patients, accompanied by weight gain and negative changes in body composition. However, it is unknown whether exercise is effective in preventing said weight gain and mitigating body composition changes of breast cancer patients undergoing treatment. OBJECTIVES The current study used meta-analysis with trial sequential analysis to determine exercise effect on weight and body composition of breast cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy. METHODS Cochrane Library, PubMed, EMBASE, EBSCO, Scopus, and SinoMed were searched (from the database start date up to August 16, 2021) for randomized controlled studies evaluating the effect of exercise on weight or body composition among breast cancer patients during chemotherapy. RevMan software and TSA Software were used to assess the risk of bias and analyze study results. RESULTS In total, 13 studies comprising 1828 participants were included. Meta-analysis showed that exercise could lead to lower weight, body mass index (BMI), and percentage of body fat during chemotherapy for breast cancer patients, and muscular strength showed significant improvement. Trial sequential analysis showed that evidence of muscular strength was sufficient, but BMI evidence requires further confirmation. CONCLUSION This meta-analysis found significant differences in body weight, BMI, percentage of body fat, and muscular strength between exercise intervention groups and control groups. IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE Exercise during chemotherapy is beneficial in preventing weight gain and negative changes in body composition. Medical practitioners should encourage patients to start exercising during chemotherapy. However, further studies are required because insufficient sample sizes meant that outcomes of body composition remain unconfirmed.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Breast cancer survivors (BCS) experience many issues of rehabilitative concern due to the treatments they have undergone. Given the chronicity of these outcomes, the increasing number of survivors, and the positive results obtained by supervised exercise, professionals should consider offering self-managed physical activity (PA) programs to this population. Our aim was to map the currently available evidence about self-care rehabilitation for BCS. METHODS Medline, CINAHL, and Cochrane databases were searched for primary literature. Scoping review methodological frameworks were used to tackle the heterogeneity of the topic. Studies investigating self-managed PA interventions prescribed to adult BCS were included. RESULTS One hundred-eight studies were included, with sample sizes ranging from 6 to 692 patients. Information was systematically collected in tables displaying study design, type of PA, duration and recommended frequency, professional leading the study, type of supervision, initial training, strategies used to help patients integrate self-care into their daily lives, and self-managed PA efficacy. Tables were produced for every oncological side effect that BCS might experience: lymphedema, arthralgia, cancer-related fatigue, a decline in physical parameters, treatment-related cardiotoxicity, peripheral neurotoxicity, and a possible decline in the quality of life. CONCLUSIONS Self-managed PA has the potential to improve BCS oncological issues. Professionals can adopt many strategies to support patients and empower them with long-lasting self-care competencies. This scoping review provided a comprehensive and easy-to-consult overview of self-managed PA interventions for BCS. We also provided recommendations for future primary studies and secondary synthesis.

Abstract
PURPOSE Medical recommendations for balanced control of exercise, physical activity, and nutritional intake after breast cancer diagnosis remain unclear. Therefore, this review aims to summarize effective exercise methods and dietary opinions by reviewing clinical trial results. METHODS We systematically reviewed studies that evaluated 1) the relationship between exercise methods and quality of life improvement in patients with breast cancer and 2) the recommendations for physical activity, exercise, nutrition, and potential ways to improve life after breast cancer. To conduct this literature review, we searched the PubMed database for articles published until October 1, 2022, using the terms "physical activity OR exercise," "breast cancer," and "nutrition." After a primary review of the retrieved articles, we included clinical trials in this systematic review. RESULTS We hypothesized that physical activity improves the quality of life after the onset of breast cancer, suggesting that a balanced approach to aerobic exercise and resistance exercise increases the efficacy of anticancer treatment. From a nutritional point of view, it is recommended that both physical activity and diet management are necessary for patients with breast cancer. CONCLUSION Customized exercise and diet can help with weight loss, the reduction of cancer-induced fatigue, the regulation of hormonal changes, the reduction of inflammatory factors, and the improvement of mental health and vitality. Understanding the integrated mechanisms of physical activity and nutritional balance will improve the quality of life of patients with breast cancer. Therefore, it is necessary to continuously advance exercise programs and develop an alimentary balance control program.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aims of this systematic review were to assess the impact of neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) on breast cancer (BC) patients' quality of life (QOL), to compare the different regimens of NAC on BC patients' QOL, to compare NAC versus adjuvant chemotherapy on BC patients' QOL and to identify predictors of QOL on patients with BC receiving NAC. DESIGN The design used Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. DATA SOURCES Cinahl, Embase, Pubmed, Scopus, Web of Science, Cochrane library and PsycINFO were searched through 27 December 2021. ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA FOR SELECTING STUDIES The inclusion criteria were included: patients with BC receiving NAC, outcome measures related to QOL and published in English. The exclusion criteria were included: duplicates or overlapping participants, not original research, data or full text not available and qualitative study. DATA EXTRACTION AND SYNTHESIS Two independent reviewers used standardised methods to search, screen and code included studies. The risk of bias in individual studies was evaluated with Cochrane collaboration's tool for assessing risk bias, Newcastle Ottawa Score or Joanna Briggs Institute Critical Appraisal tool. This systematic review performs narrative synthesis based on several different themes. RESULTS The initial search resulted in 2994 studies; 12 of these studies fulfilled inclusion criteria. There was no significant difference in the QOL of BC before and after NAC, but patients experienced adverse reactions and depression during chemotherapy. Different regimens of NAC have different effects on patients' QOL. Patients with NAC had more severe physical discomfort than those with adjuvant chemotherapy. However, BC patients' QOL can be improved by intervening on social or family support, and these predictors, including chronotype, QOL before NAC and depression. CONCLUSIONS More original research is needed in future to understand the profile and predictors of QOL in patients with BC on NAC, which will help clinicians and patients make decisions and deal with NAC-related issues.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A growing number of articles had reported the beneficial effects of physical exercise on reduced risks of cancer recurrence and mortality. However, the associations between physical exercise and laboratory biomarkers still had controversy. As we knew, this meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) was the first time for us to comprehensively clarify their relationships in cancer patients. METHODS We comprehensively searched the PubMed, Cochrane Central, EMBASE, Web of Science, and SportDiscus online databases to identify eligible articles, up to June 1, 2021. Pooled standardized mean differences (SMDs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were utilized to clarify their associations. Sensitivity analysis was performed to assess the impact of the individual on overall and Begg's/Egger's plot was utilized to evaluate potential publication bias. RESULTS Finally, 35 randomized controlled trials (RCTs) were finally enrolled in this meta-analysis. Our results indicated that physical exercise could significantly reduce BMI (pooled SMD = -0.32 - 0.56 to -0.09)), body weight (pooled SMD = -0.31 (-0.54 to -0.08)), body fat (pooled SMD = -0.44 (-0.70 to -0.18)), waist circumference (pooled SMD = -0.50 (-0.76 to -0.23)), hip circumference (pooled SMD = -0.54 (-0.80 to -0.28)), triglyceride (pooled SMD = -0.35 (-0.69 to -0.02)), fasting insulin (pooled SMD = -0.38 (-0.54 to -0.22)), glucose (pooled SMD = -0.56 (-0.84 to -0.28)), insulin resistance (pooled SMD = -0.40 (-0.72 to -0.07)), CRP (pooled SMD = -0.97 (-1.48 to -0.46)), IGF-1 levels (pooled SMD = -0.56 (-0.83 to -0.29)) and remarkably increase IGFBP-3 levels (pooled SMD = 0.81 (0.45 to 1.17)). Further sensitivity analysis and Begg's or Egger's test suggested that our results were robust with no significant publication bias. CONCLUSIONS Our results shed light on the beneficial effects of physical exercise on cancer patients by means of BMI/weight change and various biomarkers alteration (insulin-glucose pathways or inflammatory biomarkers). Our results were anticipated for clinical application to improve cancer patients' prognosis.

Effectiveness of different types, delivery modes and extensiveness of exercise in patients with breast cancer receiving systemic treatment - A systematic review and meta-analysis. Crit Rev Oncol Hematol 2022; 178:103802. [PMID: 36031174 DOI: 10.1016/j.critrevonc.2022.103802] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/17/2022] [Revised: 08/18/2022] [Accepted: 08/23/2022] [Indexed: 11/29/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Effects of exercise in patients with breast cancer have been thoroughly investigated. The aim was to explore differences in effects regarding type, delivery mode and extensiveness (e.g. intensity; volume) of the interventions. METHODS We searched for randomised controlled trials including patients with breast cancer receiving systemic treatment, exercise-based interventions, and measures on patient reported- and objectively measured outcomes. RESULTS Exercise showed significant and moderate effects on the primary outcomes quality of life and physical function, Standardised Mean Difference: 0.52 (95 % CI 0.38-0.65) and 0.52 (95 % CI 0.38-0.66), respectively. Type of exercise had little influence on the effects, however combined aerobic- and resistance exercise seemed superior for increasing physical function, compared to aerobic or resistance exercise. Supervised interventions were superior to partly and unsupervised. Extensiveness of the intervention only influenced physical function. CONCLUSIONS Supervised interventions, more than type or extensiveness of interventions, seem to increase effects.

Raji Lahiji M, Vafa S, de Souza RJ, Zarrati M, Sajadian A, Razmpoosh E, Jaberzadeh S. Effect of Dietary-Based Lifestyle Modification Approaches on Anthropometric Indices and Dietary Intake Parameters in Women with Breast Cancer: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials. Adv Nutr 2022; 13:1974-1988. [PMID: 35641019 PMCID: PMC9526840 DOI: 10.1093/advances/nmac062] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/17/2021] [Revised: 03/26/2022] [Accepted: 05/26/2022] [Indexed: 01/28/2023] Open
Abstract
This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to investigate the effect of dietary-based lifestyle modification interventions ("diet," or "diet + exercise," or "diet + exercise + behavioral" intervention) on the measures of anthropometric and dietary intake parameters in women with breas cancer (BC). Databases were searched until June 2021. Inclusion criteria were randomized controlled trials that enrolled only women with BC. Studies that used exercise or behavioral interventions alone were not included. Mean ± SD changes were extracted for each outcome, and pooled using a random-effects model; 7315 studies were identified. Fifty-one studies (n = 7743) were included. The median ± SD duration of treatment was 24 ± 16.65 wk. Dietary-based interventions significantly reduced body weight [45 studies (n = 7239), weighted mean difference (WMD) (95% CI): -2.6 (-3.2, -2.1) kg], BMI [31 studies (n = 5384); WMD (95% CI): -1.0 (-1.3, -0.7) kg/m2], lean body mass [15 studies (n = 1194); WMD (95% CI): -0.6(-0.7, -0.4) kg], fat mass [11 studies (n = 913); WMD (95% CI): -2.6 (-3.3, -1.8) kg], fat percentage [17 studies (n = 897); WMD (95% CI): -1.5 (-1.9, -1.3)%], hip circumference [9 studies (n = 489); WMD (95% CI): -2.43 (-3.34, -1.54) cm], and waist circumference [7 studies (n = 309); WMD (95% CI): 0.02 (-0.03, -0.005) cm]. Significant reductions in energy intakes [20 studies (n = 4608), WMD (95% CI): -162 (-220, 104) kcal/d] and fat intakes [7 studies (n = 4316), WMD (95% CI): -7.5 (-7.8, -7.2)% of energy/d], and an increase in fiber intakes [11 studies (n = 4241), WMD (95% CI): 2.4 (0.7, 4.1) g/d] were observed. No significant changes were seen in protein, carbohydrate, and fruit and vegetable intakes. Subgroup analyses showed that changes in anthropometric and dietary intake indices were significant in studies that enrolled patients with both obesity and normal weight, studies that used diet therapy in combination with exercise and behavioral therapy, and studies that started the intervention during the treatment period. Overall, a multimodal dietary-based lifestyle intervention had significant effects on anthropometric and dietary intake parameters in women with BC, specifically when started as early as the diagnosis. This meta-analysis was registered at PROSPERO as CRD42021291488.

Cava E, Marzullo P, Farinelli D, Gennari A, Saggia C, Riso S, Prodam F. Breast Cancer Diet "BCD": A Review of Healthy Dietary Patterns to Prevent Breast Cancer Recurrence and Reduce Mortality. Nutrients 2022; 14:nu14030476. [PMID: 35276833 PMCID: PMC8839871 DOI: 10.3390/nu14030476] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/26/2021] [Revised: 01/12/2022] [Accepted: 01/15/2022] [Indexed: 01/27/2023] Open
Abstract
Breast cancer (BC) represents the most common cancer in women, while overweight and obesity are the second preventable cause of cancer. Weight gain and fat accumulation are common after BC diagnosis; moreover, weight gain during the treatment decreases the survival rate and increases the risk of recurrence in breast cancer survivors (BCS). To reduce the risk of second primary cancer or BC recurrence, and all-cause mortality in BCS, multiple interventions have been investigated to obtain reduction in weight, BMI and/or waist circumference. The aim of this narrative review is to analyze evidence on BCS for their risk of recurrence or mortality related to increased weight or fat deposition, and the effects of interventions with healthy dietary patterns to achieve a proper weight and to reduce fat-related risk. The primary focus was on dietary patterns instead of single nutrients and supplements, as the purpose was to investigate on secondary prevention in women free from disease at the end of their cancer treatment. In addition, BC relation with insulin resistance, dietary carbohydrate, and glycemic index/glycemic load is discussed. In conclusion, obesity and overweight, low rates of physical activity, and hormone receptor-status are associated with poorer BC-treatment outcomes. To date, there is a lack of evidence to suggest which dietary pattern is the best approach for weight management in BCS. In the future, multimodal lifestyle interventions with dietary, physical activity and psychological support after BC diagnosis should be studied with the aim of reducing the risk of BC recurrence or mortality.

Evidence-Based Exercise Recommendations to Improve Mental Wellbeing in Women with Breast Cancer During Active Treatment: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. Cancers (Basel) 2021; 13:cancers13020264. [PMID: 33445739 PMCID: PMC7828164 DOI: 10.3390/cancers13020264] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/17/2020] [Revised: 12/20/2020] [Accepted: 01/07/2021] [Indexed: 12/20/2022] Open
Abstract
Breast cancer was the most common cancer in women worldwide. The aims of the current systematic review and meta-analysis are: (i) to systematically examine the effects of exercise interventions on mental wellbeing; (ii) to examine the specific effect of the type of supervised exercise and its intensity, volume and frequency on mental wellbeing; and (iii) to explore which interventions are most effective in mental wellbeing among women with breast cancer during active treatment. An electronic literature search was performed using MEDLINE (via PubMed), Embase (Ovid), and Web of Science, we identified 175 full-text articles. The 57 publications included data from 6988 participants, age ranging from 18 to 78 years (weighted mean: 50.85 years). Compared with the control conditions, exercise training programs were associated with significant reductions in anxiety (d = -0.22, I2 = 53.0%), depression (d = -0.24, I2 = 66.6%), and fatigue (d = -0.47, I2 = 69.8%), as well as increases in body image (d = 0.27, I2 = 69.2%) and quality of life (overall, d = 0.46, I2 = 71.6%; emotional function, d = 0.33, I2 = 65.7%; and FACT-B, d = 0.60, I2 = 76.2%). There were a variety of frequencies, intensities, and durations of supervised exercise programs reported in the included meta-analytic approach. In addition, we found that concomitant concurrent training, at moderate-to-vigorous intensity, and with a volume ≥50 min/week had benefits on a number of health outcomes, such as fatigue, depression, and quality of life measure by the FACT-B instrument. These findings have important implications for healthcare providers and multidisciplinary teams involved in mental health management in cancer patients during active treatment.

Quality of life and illness perceptions in patients with breast cancer using a fasting mimicking diet as an adjunct to neoadjuvant chemotherapy in the phase 2 DIRECT (BOOG 2013-14) trial. Breast Cancer Res Treat 2020; 185:741-758. [PMID: 33179154 PMCID: PMC7921018 DOI: 10.1007/s10549-020-05991-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 27] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/03/2020] [Accepted: 10/20/2020] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
Purpose In the phase II DIRECT study a fasting mimicking diet (FMD) improved the clinical response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy as compared to a regular diet. Quality of Life (QoL) and illness perceptions regarding the possible side effects of chemotherapy and the FMD were secondary outcomes of the trial. Methods 131 patients with HER2-negative stage II/III breast cancer were recruited, of whom 129 were randomly assigned (1:1) to receive either a fasting mimicking diet (FMD) or their regular diet for 3 days prior to and the day of neoadjuvant chemotherapy. The European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) questionnaires EORTC-QLQ-C30 and EORTC-QLQ-BR23; the Brief Illness Perception Questionnaire (BIPQ) and the Distress Thermometer were used to assess these outcomes at baseline, halfway chemotherapy, before the last cycle of chemotherapy and 6 months after surgery. Results Overall QoL and distress scores declined during treatment in both arms and returned to baseline values 6 months after surgery. However, patients’ perceptions differed slightly over time. In particular, patients receiving the FMD were less concerned and had better understanding of the possible adverse effects of their treatment in comparison with patients on a regular diet. Per-protocol analyses yielded better emotional, physical, role, cognitive and social functioning scores as well as lower fatigue, nausea and insomnia symptom scores for patients adherent to the FMD in comparison with non-adherent patients and patients on their regular diet. Conclusions FMD as an adjunct to neoadjuvant chemotherapy appears to improve certain QoL and illness perception domains in patients with HER2-negative breast cancer.
