Background

Resection of colorectal cancer (CRC) initiates inflammation, mediated at least partly by NFĸB (nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B-cells), leading to muscle catabolism and reduced physical performance. Eicosapentaen...

Short-term pre-operative high-intensity interval training does not improve fitness of colorectal cancer patients (2019)
Journal Article
Boereboom, C. L., Blackwell, J. E., Williams, J. P., Phillips, B. E., & Lund, J. N. (2019). Short-term pre-operative high-intensity interval training does not improve fitness of colorectal cancer patients.

Background: Preoperative cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) in colorectal cancer patients has been shown to affect postoperative outcomes. The aim of this study was to test the feasibility of high-intensity interval training (HIT) for improving fitness...
