简要总结
The ReMig-study aims to increase knowledge about rehabilitation needs, the rehabilitation process of arabic-speaking migrated women with BC, to increase the prerequisites for optimized and equal cancer care. The study aims to map migrated Arabic-speaking women's breast cancer rehabilitation with a focus on mental and physical recovery, lifestyle habits as well as satisfaction and goals with the rehabilitation and compare these outcomes with the outcomes of Swedish-speaking women. Further aim is to explore migrated Arabic-speaking women´s experiences and attitudes towards breast cancer rehabilitation.
详细描述
Annually, over 2 million women are diagnosed with breast cancer (BC) globally, of which about 8300 in Sweden. Today, 20% of the Swedish population is foreign born and previous research has shown that women who have migrated are particularly vulnerable when diagnosed with BC. Research focusing on migrated women is sparse as they are often excluded from research, but available research shows that experience and management of BC differs depending on ethnicity, that the women to a lesser extent participate in BC screening and rehabilitation and that they have a higher mortality than Swedish born women. In recent years, measures to promote early BC diagnosis have been initiated, but knowledge of how optimized rehabilitation should be ensured to promote recovery and reduce the socioeconomic burden is lacking.
This study aims to map the rehabilitation of migrant Arabic-speaking women with a focus on mental and physical recovery, lifestyle habits and satisfaction and goals with the rehabilitation in the first year after BC diagnosis and compare these outcomes with Swedish-speaking women. Further to elucidate migrated Arabic-speaking women´s experiences and attitudes towards breast cancer rehabilitation.

主要结局
Psychological Distress
时间窗: 1 week pre-operative, after surgery at 2 weeks, 3 ,6 ,9 and 12 months postoperative. Evaluating change over time.
Psychological Distress measured by the "Distress thermometer". A instrument that the patients answer themselves measuring the level of distress and the potential problems the may have.
General Quality of life
时间窗: 1 week pre-operative, after surgery at 2 weeks, 3 ,6 ,9 and 12 months postoperative. Evaluating change over time.
The instrument EORTC Core Quality of Life questionnaire (QLQ-C30), developed by the EORTC (European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer) and measures quality of life. The QLQ-C30 is composed of both multi-item scales and single-item measures (total 28 questions) , including. five functional scales, three symptom scales, a global health status / QoL scale, and six single items. Each of the multi-item scales includes a different set of items - no item occurs in more than one scale. All of the scales and single-item measures transforms to range in score from 0 to 100. A high scale score represents a higher response level, which means that a high score for a functional scale represents a high / healthy level of functioning, a high score for the global health status / QoL represents a high QoL, but a high score for a symptom scale / item represents a high level of symptomatology / problems.
Body mass index
时间窗: 1 week pre-operative, 6 ,9 and 12 months postoperative. Evaluating change over time.
Body mass index, based on weight (in kilograms) and height (in meters). Weight and height will be combined to report BMI in kg/m\^2. Height will be reported only at baseline (eg. 1 week pre-operative) and weight at baseline (1 week pre-operative), 6 ,9 and 12 months postoperative.
Resilience
时间窗: 1 week pre-operative, after surgery at 2 weeks, 3 ,6 ,9 and 12 months postoperative. Evaluating change over time.
Connor-Davidson Resilience scale (CD-RISC) will be used to measure patients resilience trough 25 questions ranging from 0-4. Lower scores indicates more problems. Scoring of the scale CD-RISC-25 is based on summing the total of all items, each of which is scored from 0-4, the full range is from 0 to 100, with higher scores reflecting greater resilience.
Working status/sick leave

Sick leave may indicate that the woman experience more complications of the surgery or /and cancer treatment. Follow-up question regarding the extent in percent of the sickleave.
Physical activity/life style
