Core Tip
Core Tip: The combined effects of mindfulness-based stress reduction training with flavored Jinshui Liujun decoction and conventional chemotherapy on survival time, Karnofsky performance status, traditional Chinese medicine syndrome score, immune function, negative emotion levels, and incidence of adverse reactions in patients with non-small cell lung cancer were evaluated. We found that combining mindfulness-based stress reduction training + flavored Jinshui Liujun decoction with conventional chemotherapy for patients with non-small cell lung cancer extended survival time, improved Karnofsky performance status scores, increased CD3+ and CD4+ immune cells, reduced CD8+ cells, and improved the CD4+/CD8+ ratio, thereby restoring immune function.
