Keyword: Aging

Abstract: This systematic review examined psychological interventions for anxiety in older lungcancer patients. Sixteen studies were included, but only two were tailored to geriatric patients. Cognitive-behavioral therapy, mindfulness interventions, and self-efficacy interventions reduced anxiety, while others showed mixed results. Findings highlight the need for rigorous, tailored trials for older adults.
