Onkologie und Sport
Introduction: Epidemiologic and controlled clinical studies have shown that exercise training before, during and after a cancer therapy can have a substantial impact on therapy- and cancer-related symptoms. Further research investigated whether the benefits can be extended to cancer progression, rec...
