Study Shows Exercise Reduces Pain and Fatigue in Women with Advanced Breast Cancer
Regular exercise has been found to have a positive impact on reducing pain and fatigue in women with advanced breast cancer, according to a new study. Anouk Hiensch, an assistant professor of epidemiology and health economics, emphasized the significance of offering exercise as part of the treatment regimen for patients with metastatic breast cancer. The study involved 357 patients with advanced breast cancer and revealed significant improvements in patients under the age of 50 and those experiencing higher levels of pain at the beginning of the study. Dr. Michail Ignatiadis hailed the findings as good news for patients with advanced breast cancer, indicating that they can potentially enjoy a better quality of life through regular exercise.
Study Reveals Potential Link Between Chronic Stress and Cancer Metastasis
A recent study from Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Cancer Center has revealed a potential link between stress and cancer metastasis, paving the way for new treatment strategies. Chronic stress has long been known to have detrimental effects on health, increasing the risk of conditions such as heart disease, strokes, and potentially aiding in the spread of cancer. The study found that stress induces the formation of sticky web-like structures by certain white blood cells, rendering body tissues more susceptible to cancer metastasis. The implications of these findings are profound, potentially offering new avenues for treatment strategies to curb the spread of cancer in stress-induced conditions.
