“…The present study further corroborated and expanded those reports by documenting the effectiveness of a tele-exercise training intervention in improving mental health as well as overall QoL-related parameters in women BCa survivors. Furthermore, participation in this tele-exercise training program provoked positive effects regarding the perceived pain and fatigue similar to the face-to-face supervised interventions used in previous studies conducted in cancer survivors [16,45,46].…”

“…More specifically, some of the abovementioned exercise-induced adaptations include the compensation of bone and mass loss, increase of antioxidant capacity, regulation of sex hormones, increased insulin sensitivity and enhanced immune response [ 13 , 15 ]. In addition, exercise interventions counteract many psychological and emotional distresses, being effective in the reduction of anxiety, PTSD and depression, as well as in enhancing the overall health-related QoL [ 16 , 17 , 18 ]. The exercise-induced physiological mechanisms implicated in the modulation of stress-related disorders include the increased reactivity of hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal (HPA) axis, neurogenesis, secretion of myokines and monoamine and opioid systems.…”

The number of breast cancer (BCa) survivors has been steadily increasing due to advances in anti-cancer treatments, though these individuals suffer from various cancer- and treatment-related long-term side effects. The present study aimed at investigating the effects of a home-based tele-exercise training intervention on physical- and mental health-associated parameters in BCa survivors. A total of 13 female BCa survivors (age: 58.31 ± 3.13 years, BMI: 25.68 ± 0.62 kg/m2, waist circumference: 96.54 ± 1.84 cm) participated in a two-month group tele-exercise program twice per week which included aerobic, resistance and flexibility exercises. The results of the study revealed that the tele-exercise intervention improved participants’ body mass index (BMI) (p < 0.001), waist circumference (p < 0.001), cardiorespiratory fitness (6 min walk test) (p < 0.001) and muscle function (sit to stand (p < 0.01), sit ups (p < 0.001) and push-ups (p < 0.001)). Beneficial effects were also observed on perceived anxiety (Zung Self-Rating Anxiety Scale) (p < 0.001), post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms (PCL-C) (p < 0.01), self-reported fatigue (p < 0.001), quality of life (QoL) (p < 0.05) and physical (p < 0.05), cognitive (p < 0.01) and emotional (p < 0.05) functioning (EORTQ-QLQ-C30). Our findings suggest that common cancer- and treatment-related adverse effects on physical performance, mental health and the overall QoL can be ameliorated through tele-exercise training programs in BCa survivors.

“…It was observed that physical exercise had positive effects in these domains, suggesting the development of exercise programs to improve the performance of these women. [15] In this present study, fatigue has been lower in participants who exercised regularly, followed by those who have started exercising throughout the treatment, those who have never exercised and those who stopped exercising during the treatment. Also, the time of physical exercise at T180 was inversely proportional to the fatigue scores, and, regardless of age, comorbidities presence, education level and the systemic effects of the treatment, exercising after six months of treatment decreases on an average of 5 points in the fatigue score.…”

To evaluate the association between the practice of physical exercises, quality of life and clinical outcomes in women diagnosed with and undergoing treatment for breast cancer. Cohort study, following-up women during 6 months after treatment beginning for breast cancer. A total of 149 participants were recruited for convenience in a private hospital with a specialized service for cancer treatment. Sociodemographic data, practice of physical exercise, duration of exercise per week and domains of quality of life were evaluated through specific questionnaires (EORTC-QLQ-C30/EORTC-QLQ-BR23), that aims to measure the following variables: daily tasks, physical, emotional, performance score, pain, fatigue, symptoms, treatment side effects, and global health status. The interviews with the patients were carried out during the diagnosis period and after six months of treatment. The average age of the study participants is 58.0 years old [IQ: 44.0-68.0], with the majority of white ethnicity (99.3%). After 6 months of treatment, it has been found that 52.3% of patients (n=78) were practicing some physical exercise. Patients who were practicing exercises during the treatment period had better scores in terms of emotional, social, functional performance, symptoms, global health status and the sum of quality of life scores six months after starting the treatment than those who did not exercise at all (p<0.05). The weekly physical exercise period showed a significant direct correlation with some QoL scores. Finally, the regression analysis showed that women who have practiced physical exercise during treatment had better conditions in terms of physical and daily tasks performance and lower levels of fatigue. Women who have kept regular physical exercises during the treatment for breast cancer have had better health results. Physical exercise is an important activity that should be considered in order to have a healthy routine, as it improves all quality of life domains globally.

“…Outrossim, cresce a resistência e o desempenho, o TF reprime a fadiga, aumenta as funções cardiovasculares e eleva a síntese proteica. Ademais, este cansaço intenso complica a execução dessas atividades do cotidiano e restringi a capacidade de envolver-se em um programa consecutivos de AF, levando à deterioração de sua saúde geral, QV e interações sociais referentes à saúde (Kose et al, 2021).…”

O câncer (CA) é apontado como segunda causa de morte prematura em quase 100 países ao redor do mundo, onde estima-se que ocorram 600.000 novos casos/ano. Os dados apresentados pelo INCA, a inadequação nutricional e alimentar é classificada como o segundo acarretado de CA que há a possibilidade de se prevenir, dado que os alimentos dispõem de uma capacidade de interferência no estímulo ao desenvolvimento ou na proteção contra os tumores. A AF, a dieta e o peso corporal apropriados auxiliam alguns tipos destes e são capazes de crescer notadamente o risco pela doença. Trata-se de uma revisão sistemática da literatura, onde as principais bases de dados de periódicos usados para as buscas ativas dos artigos foram: Scielo, PubMed, ACS, Google Acadêmico. À vista disso, uma refeição sadia é primordial e se aconselha consumir cotidianamente os macronutrientes e micronutrientes que são cruciais a ponto de melhorar o funcionamento adequado do organismo. Os enfermos vivenciam mudanças persistentes, mentais, físicas e emocionais que influenciam sua QV, relacionando-se à sensação de bem-estar e compreende um panorama multidimensional. A AF é uma interposição que auxilia a administrar os efeitos colaterais do diagnóstico e tratamento. Dessa forma, a presente pesquisa mostra-se de grande valor, na qual constata os benefícios que o treino de EF e adoção de uma alimentação saudável oferecem durante o tratamento do CA. A preservação nutricional também destaca maior efeito na qualidade de vida e no bem-estar de pacientes oncológicos, auxiliando nos resultados dos tratamentos, na evolução prognóstica e aumento da sobrevida.
