Regarding cancer-related fatigue.
This is in response to the article “Cancer-related fatigue: a review”, published in April 2011 by Campos et al.1. We have a few concerns regarding certain statements made by the authors. The advances in oncology have rendered cancer from a universally lethal disease to a chronic condition for many and a curable illness for a few. Hence, the potential long-term adverse effects of supportive care...
متن کاملFATIGUE DURING MULTIJOINT EXERCISE : BIOMECHANICAL CENTRAL , PERIPHERAL , AND AGE - RELATED ASPECTS by Steven
Exercise-induced fatigue is often evaluated during isometric tasks that involve a small muscle mass. The purpose of this dissertation was to utilize dynamic exercise including a large muscle mass to provide additional insight into biomechanical, central, peripheral, and age-related aspects of fatigue. Specifically, I used high-intensity submaximal cycling (SUBcyc time trial) to induce fatigue a...
متن کاملPeripheral and central fatigue after muscle-damaging exercise is muscle length dependent and inversely related.
Healthy untrained men performed 10 series of 12 knee eccentric extension repetitions (EE) at 160 degrees /s. The maximal voluntary isometric contraction force of the quadriceps muscle, the maximal rate of electrically induced torque development (RTD) and relaxation (RTR), isokinetic concentric torque at 30 degrees /s, the electrostimulation-induced torque at 20 and 100Hz frequencies were establ...
متن کاملFatigue versus activity-dependent fatigability in patients with central or peripheral motor impairments.
In the rehabilitation literature, fatigue is a common symptom of patients with any neurological impairment when defined as a subjective lack of physical and mental energy that interferes with usual activities. Some complaints may, however, arise from fatigability , an objective decline in strength as routine use of muscle groups proceeds. By this refined definition of fatigue, exercise or susta...
متن کاملCancer-related fatigue: a review.
Cancer-related fatigue is the most prevalent cancer symptom, reported in 50%-90% of patients and severely impacts quality of life and functional capacity. The condition remains underreported and often goes untreated. Guidelines suggest screening for fatigue at the initial visit, when the diagnosis of advanced disease is made, and at each chemotherapy session, as well as the identification of tr...
