Abstract
Purpose: Aromatase inhibitor-associated musculoskeletal symptoms (AIMSS) are the most common adverse effects experienced by breast cancer patients. This scoping review aimed to systematically synthesize the predictors/risk factors and outcomes of AIMSS in patients with early-stage breast cancer.
Methods: A systematic search was conducted in PubMed, Web of Science, EMBASE, CINAHL, and the China National Knowledge Internet (CNKI) from inception to December 2024 following the scoping review framework proposed by Arksey and O'Malley (2005).
Results: A total of 5,008 studies were identified, and 98 were included in this review. The risk factors for AIMSS included psychosocial and demographic factors (e.g., age, BMI, menstrual status, and anxiety), clinical factors (e.g., history of chemotherapy, preexisting pain, and musculoskeletal diseases) and gene polymorphisms (e.g., ESR1, OPG, RANKL, TCL1A, and CYP19A1). The outcomes of AIMSS encompassed physical, psychological, behavioral, and survival-related impacts.
Conclusion: This scoping review synthesized the available evidence on predictors, risk factors, and outcomes of AIMSS, providing a foundation for developing risk prediction models and enhancing symptom management strategies.
目的:芳香酶抑制剂相关的肌肉骨骼症状(AIMSS)是乳腺癌患者最常见的不良反应。本综述旨在系统地综合早期乳腺癌患者AIMSS的预测因素/危险因素和预后。方法:按照Arksey和O'Malley(2005)提出的范围审查框架,系统检索PubMed、Web of Science、EMBASE、CINAHL和中国知网(CNKI)自成立至2024年12月的数据库。结果:共纳入5008项研究,其中98项纳入本综述。AIMSS的危险因素包括社会心理和人口统计学因素(如年龄、BMI、月经状况和焦虑)、临床因素(如化疗史、既往疼痛和肌肉骨骼疾病)和基因多态性(如ESR1、OPG、RANKL、TCL1A和CYP19A1)。AIMSS的结果包括身体、心理、行为和生存相关的影响。结论:本综述综合了关于AIMSS的预测因素、危险因素和结局的现有证据,为建立风险预测模型和加强症状管理策略提供了基础。
期刊介绍:
Supportive Care in Cancer provides members of the Multinational Association of Supportive Care in Cancer (MASCC) and all other interested individuals, groups and institutions with the most recent scientific and social information on all aspects of supportive care in cancer patients. It covers primarily medical, technical and surgical topics concerning supportive therapy and care which may supplement or substitute basic cancer treatment at all stages of the disease.
Nursing, rehabilitative, psychosocial and spiritual issues of support are also included.
