Effects of Physiologic Growth Hormone Therapy on Bone Density and Body Composition in Patients with Adult-Onset Growth Hormone Deficiency: A Randomized, Placebo-Controlled Trial

TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of growth hormone at more physiologic doses on bone density and body compo- sition have not been convincingly shown in patients with adult-onset growth hormone deficiency.
Journal Article

Effects of Physiologic Growth Hormone Therapy on Bone Density and Body Composition in Patients with Adult-Onset Growth Hormone Deficiency

TL;DR: Whether long-term growth hormone replacement therapy, given at a dose adjusted according to IGF-1 levels, improves bone density, bone turnover, body composition, and several variables associated with quality of life in patients with adult-onset growth hormone deficiency is sought.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Effect of Physical Exercise on Cancer-related Fatigue during Cancer Treatment: a Meta-analysis of Randomised Controlled Trials

TL;DR: A subgroup analysis of home-based and supervised aerobic and resistance exercise programmes in prostate cancer patients showed no significant reduction in CRF in favour of the exercise group, and the safety and feasibility of exercise during adjuvant cancer treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Eccentric overload training in patients with chronic Achilles tendinopathy: a systematic review

TL;DR: The effects of eccentric exercise training in patients with chronic Achilles tendinopathy on pain are promising; however, the magnitude of the effects cannot be determined.
Journal ArticleDOI

Do patients with chronic low back pain have a lower level of aerobic fitness than healthy controls?: are pain, disability, fear of injury, working status, or level of leisure time activity associated with the difference in aerobic fitness level?

TL;DR: CLBP patients, especially men, seem to have a reduced aerobic fitness level compared with the normative population, and no explanatory factor for that loss could be identified.
