Many women at risk for and surviving with breast/ovarian cancer are simultaneously raising children. These often experience unique challenges due to concurrent demands as both parents patients cancer. Community-based control organizations offer vital patient navigation (PN), including psychoeducational services. Yet, little is known about how PN addresses these mothers' comprehensive care needs. We examined program data from N = 1758 served by a national organization. Out of the 69% navigated who were mothers, most adult children only (age ≥ 18; 56%); however, 31% mothers young < 18), 13% (χ2 341.46, p 0.001). While reported poorer quality life (QoL) than (physically unhealthy days, t -2.2, df 526, 0.05; total -1.2, 533, 0.05), there no significant differences in their experiences. For children, better QoL was associated lower genetic (r -0.12) stronger sense psychosocial empowerment 0.10) (all p's 0.05). In an adjusted multivariate regression model QoL, increased, influence decreased (ß -0.007, SE ß 0.00, 0.02), suggesting that strengthening children's agency over critical achieving overall well-being. CBO-led programming supportively cares across journey can be essential especially those minors.

Out 3529 documents initially identified, 15 RCTs included, comprising 2756 WSBC (1284 intervention groups 1472 control groups), 2082 participants depression analyses, 513 anxiety 161 stress analyses. Meta-analyses showed that promoted significant reduction anxiety. Subgroup analyses greater when aerobic resistance combined. Only two studies stress, less robust data suggesting improvement combining interventions. Future protocols are needed confirm findings.
