Great paper discussing the current challenges and complexities for prehabilitation for cancer survivors prior to surgery. This is a strong personal interest area of mine in the field of Exercise Oncology but I feel that this paper does a great job addressing some of the current issues for cancer survivors adhering to prehabilitation programs. Whether if its cancer survivors living with different cancers types, (i.e., breast cancer versus pancreatic cancer), socioeconomic backgrounds, or even with different levels of health literacy; compliance to a program may be a challenge. In order for these issues to be resolved it's important to understand why these challenges exist and how we can better tailor these programs to benefit all cancer survivors. These challenges will then create OPPORTUNITIES. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3977… #prehabilitation #prehab #lifestyle #diet #exercise #mentalhealth #health #cancer #oncology #exerciseismedicine #therapy #prevention #treatment #cancerprevention #cancertreatment #surgery #cancersurgery #sdoh #socialdeterminantsofhealth #publichealth #preventionscience #access #healthliteracy #cancersupportservices #implementationscience #inequality #equity #mortality #fatigue #breastcancer #pancreaticcancer #gynaecologicalcancer #haematologicalcancer #healthcare #chemotherapy #radiotherapy #compliance #adherence #barriers #healthcareprovider

Colon cancer is big problem but it’s even more of a concern due to the fact it can metastasize in the liver. Exercise has been shown to lower RPS4X, which is a protein and can dictate how various cancer cells function. Not only does the levels become lower but the cancer becomes weaker and easier to fight off. Even though more research needs to be conducted to fully understand the mechanisms of this, the hope is great. #exerciseismedicine #exerciseoncology #oncology #fitness #health #cancer #lifestyle #preventiom #treatment #livercancer #metastasis #metastaticcancer #colorectalcancer #coloncancer #rectalcancer #movement #exercisetherapy #physicaltherapy #physicaltherapist #exercisephysiology #exercisephysiologist #clinicalexercisephysiologist #clinicalexercisephysiology #oncologist #cancerresearch #mortality #survivorship cell.com/heliyon/fulltext/S2…

The review highlights obesity as a modifiable risk factor for leukemia, emphasizing that weight loss and management programs could reduce incidence and improve survival outcomes. An elevated body mass index for example can increase toxicity issues with cancer treatment and can reflect upon poorer survival rates as well. As you can see, the connections between leukemia and obesity are many which is why lifestyle interventions such as diet and exercise should be integral as part of their care. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3815… #exerciseismedicine #cancer #obesity #exerciseoncology #diet #nutrition #lifestyle #prevention #treatment #exerxisetherapy #oncology #oncologist #health #weightloss #surgery #cancercare #survivorship #cancersupportservices #healthcoach #healthcare #exercisephysiologist #exercisephysiology #clinicalexercisephysiologist #leukemia #adipokine #bodymassindex #bmi #childhoodleukemia #clinicalexercisephysiology #chemotherapy #chemotreatment #radiationtreatment #radiotherapy #immunotherapy #mortality #morbidity #nurse #physician #exerciseoncologist #cancerprevention #cancertreatment #physicaltherapy #physicaltherapist #physiotherapy #physiotherapist #physicalactivity

Exercise elicits many health benefits for prostate cancer survivors. Whether they are direct or indirect, it all contributes to the same outcome. With prostate cancer being the most diagnosed cancer and second leading cause of male mortality in the US, we need more exercise interventions tailored for this population. sciencedirect.com/science/ar… #exerciseismedicine #exerciseoncology #exerciseoncologist #oncologist #oncology #cancer #cancerprevention #cancertreatment #exercisephysiology #exercisephysiologist #prevention #treatment #prostatecancer #clinicalexercisephysiology #clinicalexercisephysiologist #physicaltherapy #physicaltherapist #physiotherapist #lifestyle #lifestylemedicine #coloncancer #immunotherapy #chemotherapy #radiationtreatment #exercisetherapy #movement #fatigue #neuropathy #crf #surgery #qol #qualityoflife #exercisespecialist #cancerexercisetrainer #neoplasm #metastasis #breastcancer #myokine #angiogenesis #prostatehealth #urology #urologist #menshealth

Understanding the issues of obesity in cancer care is important for improving treatments and patient outcomes. This review goes into great detail how obesity can impact not only cancer itself but also how it can influence various treatment regimens as well. Factors such as these make it more reasonable and understandable why diet and exercise should be core components in cancer care since they each have a strong impact on obesity. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3931… #exerciseismedicine #cancer #obesity #exerciseoncology #diet #nutrition #lifestyle #prevention #treatment #exerxisetherapy #oncology #oncologist #health #weightloss #obesityparadox #surgery #cancercare #survivorship #cancersupportservices #healthcoach #healthcare #exercisephysiologist #exercisephysiology #clinicalexercisephysiologist #clinicalexercisephysiology #chemotherapy #chemotreatment #radiationtreatment #radiotherapy #immunotherapy #mortality #morbidity #nurse #physician #exerciseoncologist #cancerprevention #cancertreatment #physicaltherapy #physicaltherapist #physiotherapy #physiotherapist #physicalactivity

Whether it's before, during, or after cancer treatment, exercise does wonders for cancer survivors. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3880… #exerciseismedicine #exerciseoncology #exerciseoncologist #oncologist #oncology #cancer #cancerprevention #cancertreatment #exercisephysiology #exercisephysiologist #prevention #treatment #prostatecancer #clinicalexercisephysiology #clinicalexercisephysiologist #physicaltherapy #physicaltherapist #physiotherapist #lifestyle #sarcoma #lifestylemedicine #coloncancer #immunotherapy #chemotherapy #radiationtreatment #exercisetherapy #movement #fatigue #neuropathy #lungcancer #crf #surgery #qol #qualityoflife #leukemia #myeloma #exercisespecialist #cancerexercisetrainer #neoplasm #metastasis #breastcancer

Lung cancer continues to be a leading cause of cancer-related morbidity and mortality. The disease itself has direct and indirect effects on reducing quality of life and overall exercise capacity. Exercise as a therapy has been associated with improving these outcomes, and more specifically reducing morbidity and mortality. Despite various treatment stages for people with lung cancer, exercise can lead to improvements in muscular strength, fitness, and overall quality of life. This great review emphasizes the need for structured exercise programs for this population overseen by healthcare professionals and that exercise needs to be a core component of therapy for this for them as well. lnkd.in/eyDBaAnW #exerciseismedicine #exercise #oncology #cancer #prevention #treatment #exercisephysiologist #exercisephysiology #exerciseoncology #exerciseoncologist #movement #exercisetherapy #surgery #bariatricsurgery #clinicalexercisephysiologist #clinicalexercisephysiology #physicalactivity #lifestyle #cancertreatment #cancerprevention #oncologist #diagnosis #survivorship #depression #fatigue #qualityoflife #mentalhealth #dietician #nurse #strengthtraining #resistancetraining #sleep #integrativeoncology #prehab #prehabilitation #rehabilitation #physicaltherapy #physicaltherapist #physiotherapist #health #obesity #weightloss #mortality #cancersurvivorship A @ACSMNews @CEPAupdates @ESSA_NEWS @ASCO @AmericanCancer @CR_UK
