The common symptom clusters in breast cancer patients receiving adjuvant chemotherapy were the gastrointestinal symptom cluster (nausea\u2010lack of appetite), the fatigue\u2010pain\u2010sleep disturbance symptom cluster and the psychological symptom cluster (worry\u2010sadness\u2010nervousness\u2010distress\u2010feeling irritable\u2010difficult concentrating). The severity dimension was the most frequently utilised in identifying symptom clusters, with the number and concurrence of symptom clusters showing variation over time.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>This study summarised common symptom clusters in breast cancer patients receiving adjuvant chemotherapy and revealed their changes from symptom dimensions and the chemotherapy process. These findings support further exploration of symptom cluster changes and underlying mechanisms, facilitating the design of targeted management strategies, including appropriate interventions and measurement dimensions in clinical nursing, to ultimately reduce patients' symptom burden.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Impact<\/jats:title><jats:p>Common symptom clusters have been identified in breast cancer patients receiving adjuvant chemotherapy.
