Depressive symptoms, social anxiety, and perceived neck function in patients with head and neck cancer.
This study examined the relationships of depressive symptoms and social anxiety with perceived neck function in patients treated for head and neck cancer. Significant associations were found between membership in the neck disability index trajectories and membership in the longitudinal patterns of depressive symptoms and social anxiety. The investigators concluded that impaired physical function and psychological distress are intertwined for patients with head and neck cancer long after completing treatment.
