Newton, R. U. (2018). Overwhelming research and clinical evidence of exercise medicine efficacy in cancer management—translation into practice is the challenge before us. Current Oncology, 25(2), 117. https://doi.org/10.3747/co.25.4101

Abstract

The paper “Connecting people with cancer to physical activity and exercise programs: a pathway to create accessibility and engagement”1 is very timely. As the authors have convincingly demonstrated, rigorous clinical and research evidence support something of which most medical and allied health professionals are cognizant: the benefit of physical activity and exercise for people with cancer.
