一項最新研究發(fā)現(xiàn)，如果參與有規(guī)律鍛煉，接受結(jié)腸癌治療的患者能夠極大降低疾病復(fù)發(fā)的風(fēng)險，提高整體生存的機會。

Dana-Farber癌癥研究所(Boston, MA, USA)的研究人員，檢查了兩組不同系列的資料得出了共同的結(jié)論。一項研究包括832例III期結(jié)腸癌患者(累及癌癥周圍的淋巴結(jié)，但是沒有擴散出該區(qū)域的證據(jù))，這些患者接受了手術(shù)和隨后的化療，是“癌癥和白血病B組(CALGB)”美國國家臨床試驗的一部分。另外一個臨床研究包括573例護士健康研究的患者，該項目由Brigham和婦女醫(yī)院(New York, NY, USA)主持，每2年通過對121,700例女性注冊護士的郵寄問卷調(diào)查進行跟蹤研究。包括在當(dāng)前研究中的護士在6個月以前接受了外科手術(shù)治療I ～III期的癌癥。
 
Exercise Improves Colon Cancer Survival
 
People who have been treated for colon cancer can substantially reduce the risk that the disease will return and improve their overall chance of survival by engaging in regular exercise, new studies have found. Researchers at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute (Boston, MA, USA), examined two different sets of data to arrive at a shared conclusion. One study involved 832 patients with stage III colon cancer (involving the lymph nodes around the tumor but with no signs of having spread outside the area) who had received surgery and follow-up chemotherapy as part of the cancer and leukemia group B (CALGB) U.S. national clinical trial. The other study involved 573 participants in the nurses' health study, a project organized by Brigham and Women's Hospital (New York, NY, USA) which tracks the health of 121,700 female registered nurses by questionnaires mailed every two years. The nurses included in the current study had undergone surgery intended to cure stage I to III cancer at least six months earlier.
