Mindfulness-based stress reduction can alleviate cancer- related fatigue: A meta-analysis.
Journal of Psychosomatic Research December 27, 2019 Congyan Xie, B. Dong, Lihong Wang et al.
A meta-analysis of 14 randomized controlled trials involving 3,008 cancer patients found that mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) significantly reduces cancer-related fatigue, especially in lung cancer patients. An 8-week, expert-supervised MBSR program had a large effect on fatigue compared with usual care or no intervention. MBSR is an effective complementary therapy for managing cancer-related fatigue.
