Holding back moderates the association between health symptoms and social well-being in patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.

摘要

The results of the present study suggest that the level of holding back may be important in understanding how health-related symptoms relate to social well-being in patients undergoing HSCT. These findings underscore the importance of addressing how patients undergoing HSCT communicate about their disease with others as this may be related to their adjustment to illness and treatment.
