• An update of controlled physical activity trials in cancer survivors: a systematic review and meta-analysis (2010, background): “In regards to lymphedema, with the exception of a small number of patients in two studies [21, 81], aerobic, lifestyle, and upper body resistive exercise was tolerated by breast cancer survivors with no adverse effect on the development or exacerbation of lymphedema.”
• Cancer treatment and survivorship statistics, 2012 (2012, background): “Intervention studies have shown that exercise can improve fatigue, anxiety, depression, selfesteem, happiness, and quality of life in cancer survivors.(164) Exercise for cancer survivors should be individualized and tailored according to the disease site and stage and the survivor’s capabilities.”
