      <dc:description>Background: The treatment associated with non-Hodgkin lymphoma patients may cause&#xd;
adverse effects on their physical and psychological condition. The aim of this study is to detect the&#xd;
response to an eight-week, 16-session, 60-min presential Qigong program in anxiety, depression and&#xd;
vagal nerve activity alongside a control group. Methods: A randomized controlled clinical trial was&#xd;
managed. Randomization was carried out by generating a numerical sequence of three cycles through&#xd;
the software EPIDAT 4.1. Numbers were placed in sealed opaque envelopes for assignment to the&#xd;
different groups. Results: Anxiety levels were substantially decreased in the experimental group,&#xd;
with a large effect size (F = 30.38, p &lt; 0.00). Depression levels had an improvement in the experimental&#xd;
group in contrast to the control group, reaching statistical significance (F = 19.19, p &lt; 0.00). Heart&#xd;
Rate Variability unveiled significant results in terms of between-group differences, with a large&#xd;
effect size in the HRV Index (F = 15.80, p &lt; 0.00), SDNN (F = 8.82, p &lt; 0.00), and RMSSD (F = 6.72,&#xd;
p &lt; 0.01) in the time domain, and a medium effect size in the HF (F = 9.78, p &lt; 0.003), LF (F = 9.78,&#xd;
p &lt; 0.00), and LF/HF Ratio (F = 18.44, p &lt; 0.00) in the frequency domain, which were all bettered in&#xd;
the experimental group, after the Qigong program. Conclusions: Qigong therapy can be an effective&#xd;
therapeutic activity in consonance with traditional medicine to improve psychological health and&#xd;
autonomic nervous system balance in non-Hodgkin lymphoma survivors.</dc:description>
