BACKGROUND: @entity356 is the second most common @entity5 in Korea. Fatigue is a common symptom among @entity5 survivors. The aim of this study was to identify factors associated with fatigue in @entity356 survivors. METHODS: Data were analyzed from 199 @entity356 survivors who visited a @entity5 survivor outpatient clinic from July 2013 to June 2014. @entity1 were surveyed using a questionnaire containing a @entity3777 ( @entity3777 ) and questions regarding associated symptoms. @entity1 were divided into fatigue ( @entity3777 ) and non-fatigue groups based on @entity3777 scores (>= 4 and <4, respectively). Age, sex, weight, body mass index, @entity5 stage, pathology, surgery type, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, comorbid disease, family history of @entity5 , smoking, @entity285 consumption, exercise, and laboratory results were investigated. RESULTS: The fatigue and non-fatigue groups contained 42 and 157 survivors, respectively. Their mean age was 58 years, and the mean post-operative period was 6.58 years. @entity4841 (odds ratio [OR], 12.95; 95% confidence interval [CI], 3.21-52.34), @entity1353 (OR, 10.54; 95% CI, 2.94-37.80), @entity2210 (OR, 8.26; 95% CI, 2.63-25.96), changed bowel habits (OR, 4.56; 95% CI, 1.09-19.11), @entity417 (OR, 3.18; 95% CI, 1.26-8.05), and regular exercise (OR, 0.31; 95% CI, 0.12-0.77) were significantly associated with fatigue in @entity356 survivors, while weight, treatment, and @entity308 mood were not. CONCLUSION: @entity4841 , @entity1353 , @entity2210 , bowel habit change, @entity417 , and regular exercise are associated with fatigue in @entity356 survivors.
