Supportive care in cancer : official journal of the Multinational Association of Supportive Care in Cancer
Previous publications showed the effectiveness of exercise in adults with cancer receiving palliative care, but evidence for palliative care research on exercise is lacking. The purpose is to examine the effects of an exercise intervention on exercise capacity, physical function, and patient-reported outcome measures in adults with cancer receiving...

Physical activity offers promise to protect against multiple non-hepatic primary cancers. We performed a systematic review to quantify the association between physical activity and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) risk. We searched the Cochrane Library, Embase, Medline and trial registries through December 2020 for studies that measured physical acti...

Purinergic signalling
The neurotrophin brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), which acts as a transducer, is responsible for improving cerebral stroke, neuropathic pain, and depression. Exercise can alter extracellular nucleotide levels and purinergic receptors in central nervous system (CNS) structures. This inevitably activates or inhibits the expression of BDNF vi...

Periods of prolonged lockdown increase the risk of physical inactivity, which can contribute to physical decline among older adults. Online technology could be an innovative solution to promote physical activity (PA) habits in this context. The goal of this study was to examine and compare the acceptability, feasibility, and potential benefits of 2...

The aim of this review was to perform a meta-analysis examining the effects of cold-water immersion (CWI) coupled with resistance training on gains in muscular strength. Four databases were searched to find relevant studies. Their methodological quality and risk of bias were evaluated using the PEDro checklist. The effects of CWI vs. control on mus...

Progress in cardiovascular diseases
While maintaining an active lifestyle and engaging in regular exercise are known to promote cardiovascular (CV) health, increasing evidence has emerged to indicate that these lifestyle behaviors also can promote psychological health and well-being. This has led to research to determine if exercise can serve as a potential therapeutic modality for m...

The purpose of this study was to determine the dose-response association between habitual physical activity (PA) and cognitive function using a nationally representative data set of U.S. older adults aged ≥60 years. We used data from the 2011-2014 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (n = 2 441, mean [SE] age: 69.1 [0.2] years, 54.7% fe...
