American College of Sports Medicine Roundtable Report on Physical Activity, Sedentary Behavior, and Cancer Prevention and Control
Conclusions
Collectively, there is consistent, compelling evidence that physical activity plays a role in preventing many types of cancer and for improving longevity among cancer survivors, although the evidence related to higher risk of melanoma demonstrates the importance of sun safe practices while being physically active. Together, these findings underscore the importance of physical activity in cancer prevention and control. Fitness and public health professionals and health care providers worldwide are encouraged to spread the message to the general population and cancer survivors to be physically active as their a...

Physical activity and cancer: an umbrella review of the literature including 22 major anatomical sites and 770 000 cancer cases.
CONCLUSION: Physical activity is associated with a lower risk of several cancers, but only colon and breast cancer associations were supported by strong or highly suggestive evidence, respectively. Evidence from other cancer sites was less consistent, presenting hints of uncertainty and/or bias.

How does occupational physical activity influence health? An umbrella review of 23 health outcomes across 158 observational studies.
CONCLUSIONS: We found favourable associations for most health-related outcomes with high OPA levels, but we also found some evidence for unfavourable associations due to high OPA levels. At this point, there is a need for better quality evidence to provide a unequivocal statement on the health effects of OPA.

Turgut Ozal University Faculty of Medicine 6th International Student Congress.
Abstract
Turgut Ozal University Scientific Research Committee (TOBAT) was established in Turgut Ozal University Faculty of Medicine in 2009 to encourage young medical students and scientists to carry out novel scientific research in addition to their medical education in order to 1) establish a platform of informing the latest advancements in science, 2) present this work to colleagues and 3) meet and interact with their peers within the international medical and scientific community. Our committee annually organizes Turkey's most highly-qualified medical student congress with the highest number of presenters and ...

Study: Alcohol Is Leading Preventable Cause Of Cancer In U.S.
BOSTON (CBS) – Researchers in Boston have taken a good hard look at alcohol and cancer deaths.
Dr. Timothy Naimi, at Boston University School of Medicine, says this is the first time in 30 years that researchers have looked closely at alcohol and cancer deaths.

“When it comes to alcohol consumption and cancers, clearly excessive drinking is the riskiest type of drinking,” Dr. Naimi said. “But when it comes to cancer, there is no safe level of alcohol consumption.”

The Prescription or Proscription of Exercise in Colorectal Cancer Care
Conclusions: Our data are consistent with the clinical observation that a large proportion of CRC survivors may be unable to participate in unsupervised exercise 6 months after curative care. These data underscore the need for continued research to clarify the safety and feasibility of prescribing exercise to CRC survivors.

The Case for Increased Physical Activity in Chronic Inflammatory Bowel Disease: A Brief Review
Int J Sports MedDOI: 10.1055/s-0042-103157Regular physical activity reduces the risk of colon cancer, but there is little information on the merits of such activity in the prevention and management of chronic inflammatory bowel disease (CIBD). The present systematic review thus documents current levels of habitual physical activity and aerobic and muscular function in CIBD, and examines the safety, practicality and efficacy of exercise programmes in countering the disease process, correcting functional deficits and enhancing quality of life. A systematic search of the Ovid/Medline database from January 1996 to May 2015 lin...

Validity of the Physical Activity Questionnaires IPAQ-SF and GPAQ for Cancer Survivors: Insights from a Spanish Cohort
This study examines the validity of 2 widely used self-report methods for PA determination, the International Physical Activity Questionnaire short version (IPAQ-SF) and Global Physical Activity Questionnaire (GPAQ). Both instruments were compared with the triaxial accelerometry (Actigraph) method as an objective reference standard. Study participants were 204 cancer survivors (both sexes, aged 18–79 years). Compared with accelerometry, both questionnaires significantly overestimated PA levels (across all intensities) and underestimated physical inactivity levels. No differences were detected between the 2 questionnaires...

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

Muscle-strengthening activities are associated with lower risk and mortality in major non-communicable diseases: a systematic review and meta-analysis of cohort studies
CONCLUSION: Muscle-strengthening activities were inversely associated with the risk of all-cause mortality and major non-communicable diseases including CVD, total cancer, diabetes and lung cancer; however, the influence of a higher volume of muscle-strengthening activities on all-cause mortality, CVD and total cancer is unclear when considering the observed J-shaped associations.SYSTEMATIC REVIEW REGISTRATION: PROSPERO CRD42020219808.PMID:35228201 | DOI:10.1136/bjsports-2021-105061

Independent and joint associations of weightlifting and aerobic activity with all-cause, cardiovascular disease and cancer mortality in the Prostate, Lung, Colorectal and Ovarian Cancer Screening Trial
CONCLUSION: Weightlifting and MVPA were associated with a lower risk of all-cause and CVD mortality, but not cancer mortality. Adults who met recommended amounts of both types of exercise appeared to gain additional benefit.PMID:36167669 | DOI:10.1136/bjsports-2021-105315
