“…Support by the health care system for physical activity could be helpful for tired and weak patients, as it has been shown that inactivity induces muscular catabolism thereby prolonging fatigue (Courneya, et al, 2000). Furthermore, at least one meta-analysis (Velthuis, et al, 2010) has shown that regular aerobic exercise resulted in a moderate improvement in cancerrelated fatigue.…”

“…Recientemente, Lin et al 14 demostraron que 12 semanas de ejercicio físico mejoraron los niveles de fatiga, la calidad de vida, la fuerza muscular y el fitness cardiorrespiratorio en pacientes con cáncer colorrectal durante la quimioterapia. Estos hallazgos han sido apoyados por otras investigaciones 15,16 . Sin embargo, la evidencia se muestra contradictoria acerca de los efectos y de la seguridad de las intervenciones con ejercicio físico durante el tratamiento activo de pacientes con cáncer.…”

“…Courneya's randomized controlled trial findings, systematic reviews of exercise interventions for women with breast cancer [31][32] report that cancer-related fatigue is reduced by exercise/physical rehabilitation, particularly supervised aerobic exercise. In addition, regular aerobic exercise is recommended in the Canadian practice guideline for the management of cancer-related fatigue [33].…”

Citation Analysis 2 AbstractPurpose: The purpose of this study was to conduct a historical review of psycho-oncology and supportive care research in Canada using citation analysis, and to review the clinical impact of the research conducted by the most highly cited researchers.Methods: The lifetime journal publication records of 109 psycho-oncology and supportive care researchers in Canada were subject to citation analysis using the Scopus database, based on citations since 1996 of articles deemed relevant to psychosocial oncology and supportive care, excluding self-citations. Three primary types of analysis were performed for each individual: the number of citations for each journal publication, a summative citation count of all published articles, and the Scopus h-index.Results: The top 20 psycho-oncology/supportive care researchers for each of five citation categories are presented: the number of citations for all publications; the number of citations for 1 st -authored publications; the most highly cited 1 st -authored publications; the Scopus hindex for all publications; and the Scopus h-index for 1 st -authored publications. There is no standardized measure of research success. The standard means by which research findings are communicated to others is through a peer-reviewed journal publication.Research findings that are not published are less likely to reach a stakeholder audience. index, for all published articles and first-authored papers. In addition, the most highly cited research publications are presented. MethodsThe process of citation analysis began with the determination of the psychosocial oncology and supportive care researchers to be included in the analysis. The first step in this process was to review the current membership list of the Canadian Association of Psychosocial Oncology (CAPO) to identify individuals anticipated to place highly on one of the planned citation analysis lists. Seventy-two of 301 CAPO members were identified for inclusion. Only those individuals who currently reside and work in Canada were included; retired researchers were excluded. A further 37 individuals who are not CAPO members but are known to conduct psychosocial oncology or supportive care research, many of whom were known members of the Canadian Association of Nurses in Oncology (CANO), were added to this list, for a total of 109 individuals on whom the preliminary citation analysis was performed.Given our interest only in citations to published papers specific to psychosocial oncology and supportive care in oncology, it was important to clearly define the scope of psychosocial oncology and supportive care for this analysis, and to develop eligibility criteria against which each published paper would be examined for inclusion in the citation analysis. The scope and practice of psychosocial (and supportive) oncology has broadened over the past several years, and researchers in related fields -chronic disease prevention, nutrition, patient navigation, rehabilitation -commonly find a home in psychosocial oncolo...
