Journal ArticleDOI
The effect of exercise on fatigue and physical functioning in breast cancer patients during and after treatment and at 6 months follow-up: A meta-analysis.

TL;DR: This systematic review found that an exercise intervention program can produce short-term improvements in physical functioning and can reduce fatigue in breast cancer patients, however, more studies are needed to confirm the time-dependent observations in this study.
Journal ArticleDOI
Precision measurement of segmental motion from flexion-extension radiographs of the lumbar spine.
TL;DR: Preliminary results show that precision of the measurement of rotational and translational motion can be considerably enhanced by making allowance for radiographic distortional effects and by minimizing subjective influence in the measurement procedure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sagittal plane segmental motion of the cervical spine. A new precision measurement protocol and normal motion data of healthy adults.
TL;DR: The new protocol measures segmental motion with high precision and corrects for radiographic distortion, variation in stature and alignment errors of patients, and allows segmental hypo-, normal or hypermobility to be quantified.
Journal ArticleDOI
Psychosocial interventions as part of breast cancer rehabilitation programs? Results from a systematic review
Egil Andreas Fors,Gro F. Bertheussen,Inger Thune,Lene Kristine Juvet,Ida Kristin Ø. Elvsaas,Line Merethe Oldervoll,Gun Anker,Ursula Falkmer,Steinar Lundgren,Gunnar Leivseth +9 more
TL;DR: This systematic review aimed to determine the effectiveness of psychoeducation, cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) and social support interventions used in the rehabilitation of breast cancer patients.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of the SF6D, the EQ5D, and the oswestry disability index in patients with chronic low back pain and degenerative disc disease.
Lars Gunnar Johnsen,Christian Hellum,Øystein P. Nygaard,Kjersti Storheim,Kjersti Storheim,Jens Ivar Brox,Ivar Rossvoll,Gunnar Leivseth,Margreth Grotle +8 more
TL;DR: The difference in important measurement properties between EQ5D and SF6D is too large to consider them interchangeable, and the choice of index should be determined by the diagnosis.
