PhD in Exercise Oncology and Cancer Survivorship
Just published by our team at the @EMRI_ECU at @EdithCowanUni and led by @FBettariga. Changes in body composition following exercise were not consistently associated with inflammatory biomarker responses in breast cancer survivors with only LM significantly associated with…

Patients with #bone #metastases frequently report #fear of movement, ehich in turno lead to a decrease in #exercise #supervised and#structured #exercise can overcome this fear through several #modulators Read our new article! @sara_pilotto @lorenzobellu onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ca…
To date, several #guidelines about #physicalactivity 🚴♂️🏋♀️ for patients with #cancer have been published!!! In this #systematic #review 🔎, we have summarized the current #recommendations!!! What have we found? Read the review!!! sciencedirect.com/science/articl…


Exercise, especially combined resistance and aerobic training, can reduce pro-inflammatory biomarkers, and may be a suitable strategy to reduce inflammation in breast cancer survivors. However, further research is needed to investigate the effects of exercise mode and program…
Physical #exercise program, delivered in person or home based, is #feasible and #efficacious in patients with bone metastases! It seems more effective in patients with #osteolytics lesions! Read our last paper on EJCC! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11…


So, does having osteolytics bone metastases mean you should completely avoid exercise 🏋️? 🚨 Absolutely not! Read our case report published in @HeliyonJournal sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

#Physical #exercise 🚴♂️ and #nutrition 🍗 might improve #prognosis 📈 in patients affected by #lung #cancer🫁!!!! Read our last editorial! tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10… @lorenzobellu @sara_pilotto @Starlight_study



They talk about us!!!! Professor @sara_pilotto was interviewed by @Avvenire_Nei about the #STARLighT 🎇 study. Tomorrow, everyone in the square to support @AIRC_it per la Ricerca sul Cancro ETS with the "Arance delle Salute". @AvanciniAlice @lorenzobellu www-avvenire-it.cdn.ampproject.org/c/s/www.avveni…
Thrilled to share our review (from my PhD) published in the renowned @BJSM_BMJ. We found that higher levels of muscle strength or cardiorespiratory fitness are associated with a significantly reduced risk of mortality (up to 40%) in cancer patients @ProfRobNewton @EMRI_ECU
📢 The #wait is #over‼️ Do you want to know more about #STARLighT 🎇 project? Listen to our #PI, @sara_pilotto , medical oncologist and associate professor at the #Department of #Engineering for #Innovation #Medicine of the #University of #Verona. @AvanciniAlice @lorenzobellu
Even just the word #cancer 🦀 inspires #fear among the population. 💡 But, what is the perception of #generalpopulation about exercise in patients with cancer undergoing treatments? Our investigation tries to answer!!! @lorenzobellu @sara_pilotto
