IES = Impact of Events Scale, IL-6 = interleukin 6, TNF-α = tumor necrosis factor alpha, IL-8 = interleukin 8, IL-1β = interleukin 1-beta, BMI = body mass index, Cancer Tx = cancer treatment type, Stage = cancer stage. Depression was measured using the Center for Epidemiological Studies- Depression scale.
