Abstract
The aim of this study was to determine the effect of spiritual psychotherapy on some cytokines (TNFa, IFNg, IL-10, hs-CRP) in cancer patients. Therefore, in a quasi-experimental research, 25 female patients with BC were selected and divided into two groups of experimental and control randomly. Experimental group were undergoing therapeutic protocols for 12 sessions. Control group did not undergo any psychological intervention. Both groups were assessed on some cytokines before and after the intervention. Measured variables were IL-10, IFNg, TNFa, hs-CRP. Analysis of mixed variances of the data indicates that spiritual psychotherapy improved the median of cytokine levels. It seems that spiritual psychotherapy is a useful approach for breast cancer.
