A significant negative association was found between aerobic exercise intensity and fatigue reduction .
A peak effect was found for moderate-intensity aerobic exercise for improving walking endurance .
No dose-response relationship was found between exercise and markers of inflammation or exercise duration and outcomes .
Rates of adherence were typically high and few adverse events were reported .
Exercise is safe , reduces fatigue and increases endurance in cancer survivors .
QUESTION Is there a dose-response effect of exercise on inflammation , fatigue and activity in cancer survivors ?
A controlled randomized study examining the effects of exercise therapy on patients undergoing haematopoietic stem cell transplantation
A haematopoietic SCT ( HSCT ) can cause severe side effects , which may have a profound impact on a patient 's life both physically and psychologically . Some studies have shown that physical activity has positive effects for in patients after an HSCT .  Therefore , the question arises whether a controlled exercise programme right from the beginning of the conditioning phase could help contribute to a patient 's physical and psychological recovery . To evaluate the different effects of specific , moderate physical activities on the physical and psychological condition of HSCT  patients we performed a controlled r and omized study with 64 in patients undergoing an allogeneic or autologous HSCT .  The patients were r and omly assigned to two groups . Although the training group took part in a specific programme of exercise therapy twice a day throughout the entire hospitalization phase , patients in the control group were offered the hospital 's st and ard mobilization programme . The results of this study showed significant differences in favour of the training group regarding strength , endurance , lung function and quality of life . However , further studies are needed to confirm these results
