Abstract BackgroundRadical mastectomy may lead to suppression of cellular immune function in patients with malignant tumors, and affect the quality of life (QOL) of patients. Immune suppression is a common cause of complications and adverse reactions in adjuvant therapy after radical mastectomy of breast cancer. Currently, there are few proven effective treatments for immune suppression. Therefore, it’s necessary to develop a new treatment method. Press needle is widely used in clinical practice. However, there have been relatively few studies that evaluate the effects of press needle on postoperative immune function. The aim of the present study is to assess the effects of press needle on immune function and QOL in female breast cancer patients undergoing radical mastectomy.MethodsThis study will be a single-center, randomized and single-blinded trial. 78 eligible patients will be randomized in a ratio of 1:1 to the press needle group or the sham press needle group. During the treatment phase, patients will undergo five times weekly of verum press needle or sham press needle for 2 weeks, and then they will be followed-up for 2 weeks. The primary outcome measures will be the peripheral blood levels of CD8+, CD4+, CD3+, and CD4+/CD8+ T cells. The secondary outcome measures will be the changes of patients’ QOL, evaluated by the Karnofsky Performance Scale (KPS) score and the EORTC core quality of life questionnaire (EORTC QLQ-C30). Safety and adverse events will be assessed at each visit. DiscussionThe results of this on-going study will provide clinical evidence for the effects and safety of press needle on immune function and QOL in patients after breast cancer resection compared with sham press needle.Trial registrationChinese Clinical Trial Registry, ChiCTR2000040100.

EVALUATION QUALITY OF LIFE BREAST CANCER PATIENTS POST – OPERATIVE Objective: This descriptive and cross-sectional study quality of life breast cancer postoperative (include both mastectomy and Breast conserving surgery) and dertermine social factors related to quality of life breast cancer postoperative. Method: We collected 60 patients of carcinoma breast cancer post modified radical mastectomy. They were interviewed directly through questionnaires on quality of life of EORTC QLQ C-30. Results: The results showed that the mean age at this study was 47,6 years. Younger women in age group 30-39 years had faird worst on physical, social, and emotional scores as compare to older women in the age group of 70-79 years. Conclusion: The mean socres quality of life of patients with breast cancer postoperative at Thai Nguyen Oncology Center was differencebetween younger patient (30-39) years and older paient (70-79) years. In addition, Age and education status on this study were factor which related to quality of life in Breast Cancer Patients. Keywords: Breast cancer, Quality of life, social factor
