Revitalizing Minds: Exploring the Transformative Power of Mindfulness-Based Nursing Interventions on Depression and Resilience in Oncology Patients-A Quasiexperimental Approach.

International Journal of Nursing Practice April 1, 2025 Ateya Megahed Ibrahim, Soma Ibrahim Ali, Mai El-Ghareap Hassan El-Metwally Omar 2 citations

Mindfulness-based nursing interventions significantly reduced depression and improved resilience in oncology patients. In a single-group study of 88 patients at the Damietta Oncology Institute in Egypt, depressive symptoms measured by the PHQ-9 dropped from an average of 14.6 to 9.7, while resilience scores on the CD-RISC rose from 56.4 to 64.8. The intervention accounted for 55% of the change in depression scores and 41% of the change in resilience scores. Depression and resilience were strongly inversely related both before and after the intervention. Incorporating these interventions into cancer care may improve patients' emotional well-being and quality of life.

Effectiveness of Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) on depression and anxiety in older adults: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Journal of behavior therapy and experimental psychiatry September 1, 2026 Jieping Ding, Zafar Mehnaz Ali, Ateya Megahed Ibrahim et al.

Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) may reduce depressive symptoms in adults aged 60 years and older compared with control conditions. A meta-analysis of three randomized controlled trials involving 178 participants found that MBCT was associated with significantly lower depressive symptom severity (pooled effect size Hedges g = -0.92, 95% confidence interval -1.30 to -0.55, with no heterogeneity). Evidence for anxiety and quality-of-life outcomes was limited and could not be pooled, and no trials reported relapse or recurrence. The authors note the evidence base remains small and heterogeneous, calling for larger, methodologically rigorous trials with standardized outcomes and longer follow-up.
