A Comparison of the Effect of Two Types of Continuous and Discontinuous Aerobic Exercise on Patients Stem Cell Mobilization before Autologous Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation

摘要

Background: Transplant success largely depends on the number of hematopoietic stem cells. The release of catecholamines following exercise can, as a treatment in addition to medication, affect the mobilization of stem cells from the bone marrow into the peripheral blood. The aim of the present study is to compare two types of aerobic exercise on stem cell mobilization before autologous transplantation.
