Objective:
To synthesize qualitative data on the role experiences of women with breast cancer as daughters, and thereby provide inspiration and reference for psychological and social interventions for these patients and their families.
Methods:
Six English databases (PubMed, Web of Science, CINAHL, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Joanna Briggs Institute) and four Chinese databases (CNKI, Wanfang, VIP, and CBM) were searched from inception to June 2024 to retrieve qualitative or mixed-methods studies on the role experiences of women with breast cancer as daughters. The Joanna Briggs Institute Critical Appraisal Tool for qualitative research was used to evaluate study quality, and the results were integrated using a meta-aggregation approach.
Results:
Eighteen studies were included in this meta-synthesis: 37 findings were extracted and aggregated into 10 categories and three synthesized findings. Synthesized findings focused on negative experiences in the role of daughter; positive experiences in the role of daughter; and support needs in the role of daughter. The confidence of all synthesized findings was moderate.
Conclusions:
Emphasis should be placed on the role experiences of women with breast cancer as daughters, and targeted practical assistance and professional support should be provided to promote the stable development of the patient's relationship with their parents and enhance the coping ability of both patients and their families.
