Core Tip

Core Tip: Patients diagnosed with cancer experience various emotions. Up to now, numerous papers exploring the association and risk factors between various types of cancer and depressive/anxiety episodes have been published. However, the results of these studies remain inconsistent. The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between depression and anxiety mood in gynecological cancer and its risk factors.
