Evidence-Based Exercise Recommendations to Improve Mental Wellbeing in Women with Breast Cancer during Active Treatment: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

摘要

There is uncertainty whether the effects of different types of training (e.g., aerobic, strength, and/or combined) and intensity have different effects on mental health outcomes in women with breast cancer during active treatment. The results showed that exercise training led to a moderate improvement in quality of life by the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Breast Cancer (FACT-B) instrument and small improvements in mental wellbeing domains, such as anxiety, body image, depression, overall quality of life, and emotional function.
