Health Consequences of an Elite Sporting Career: Long-Term Detriment or Long-Term Gain? A Meta-Analysis of 165,000 Former Athletes
DiscussionOverall, athletes live longer and have a reduced incidence of both CVD and cancer mortality compared to the general population, refuting the ‘J’ shape hypothesis. However, different health risks may be apparent according to sports classification, and between sexes, warranting further investigation.Trial registration PROSPERO (registration number: CRD42019130688).

Physical Fitness and Health-related Quality of Life in Patients with Colorectal Cancer
Int J Sports Med DOI: 10.1055/a-1342-7347Colorectal cancer is now a frequently treatable illness for most and a
chronic disease for many. The number of people living with a diagnosis of
colorectal cancer is thus expected to rise. Yet even after successful
treatment, colorectal cancer survivors, mostly the elderly, frequently
experience health problems and impaired health-related quality of life. We
investigated the cross-sectional association between physical fitness,
measured with the 6-min walk test, 30-second chair-stand test, and isometric
handgrip strength, as well as health-related quality of life, in a cohort of
col...

Physical inactivity and non-communicable disease burden in low-income, middle-income and high-income countries
CONCLUSION: The global burden associated with physical inactivity is substantial. The relative burden is greatest in high-income countries; however, the greatest number of people (absolute burden) affected by physical inactivity are living in middle-income countries given the size of their populations.PMID:33782046 | DOI:10.1136/bjsports-2020-103640

Measuring the Feasibility and Effectiveness of an Individualized Exercise Program Delivered Virtually to Cancer Survivors
Curr Sports Med Rep. 2021 May 1;20(5):271-276. doi: 10.1249/JSR.0000000000000846.ABSTRACTIn the spring of 2020, we faced a global pandemic that resulted in social distancing limitations not previously experienced, forcing practitioners to adapt exercise programming to a virtual model. The purpose of this investigation was to measure the effectiveness of a virtual exercise oncology program in 491 participants undergoing antineoplastic therapy between March and June 2020. Each session was completed virtually with a certified exercise oncology trainer. Fitness and psychological parameters were measured preexercise and postexe...

Sleep and physical activity in relation to all-cause, cardiovascular disease and cancer mortality risk
CONCLUSION: The detrimental associations of poor sleep with all-cause and cause-specific mortality risks are exacerbated by low PA, suggesting likely synergistic effects. Our study supports the need to target both behaviours in research and clinical practice.PMID:34187783 | DOI:10.1136/bjsports-2021-104046

The Effects of Physical Exercise on Tumor Vasculature: Systematic Review and Meta-analysis
Int J Sports Med DOI: 10.1055/a-1533-1876A wealth of evidence supports an association between physical exercise, decreased tumor growth rate, and reduced risk of cancer mortality. In this context, the tumor vascular microenvironment may play a key role in modulating tumor biologic behavior. The present systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to summarize the evidence regarding the effects of physical exercise on tumor vasculature in pre-clinical studies. We performed a computerized research on the PubMed, Scopus, and EBSCO databases to identify pre-clinical studies that evaluated the effect of physical exercise on tumor ...

Effect of exercise on phase angle in cancer patients: a systematic review
CONCLUSIONS: There were several exercise details that may have potential to be beneficial for PhA in cancer patients, including an early start of the exercise intervention (during treatment and immediately after discharge from hospital), the use of resistance exercise or/and aerobic exercise, and mainly a long follow-up period (≥ 4 months) to verify the structural effects of exercise on the PhA. However, there were no effects on the PhA value immediately after the intervention, regardless of the type of protocol and the intervention time.PMID:34821490 | DOI:10.23736/S0022-4707.21.12727-6
