Their intensity and their correlation to quality of life or to humor disturbances were not widely studied. The aim of this study was to report precisely sleep disturbances in advanced stage lung cancer patients, their outcome after chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy, and their correlation to anxiodepressive humor. Patients and methods It was a prospective study including 64 patients with stage 3 or 4 non-small-cell lung cancer. Patients answered the Tunisian dialectal version of the following questionnaires: Pittsburgh sleep quality index and hospital anxiety depression scale in order to evaluate, respectively, the sleep quality and anxiodepressive troubles. The questionnaires took place before chemotherapy and then were repeated after chemotherapy was over. Results The mean age was 62.9 years. All patients were active smokers.
