- Exercise training for adults undergoing maintenance dialysis
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 12-Jan-2022
Dialysis treatments weigh heavily on patients' physical and psychosocial health. Multiple studies have assessed the potential for exercise training to improve outcomes in adults undergoing dialysis. However, uncertainties exist in its relevance and sustai
- Exercise training for adults with chronic kidney disease
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 4-Sep-2011
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a worldwide public health problem. In the National Kidney Foundation Disease Outcomes Quality Initiative guidelines it is stressed that lifestyle issues such as physical activity should be seen as cornerstones of the therap
- Exercise training for advanced lung cancer
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 11-Feb-2019
Patients with advanced lung cancer have a high symptom burden, which is often complicated by coexisting conditions. These issues, combined with the indirect effects of cancer treatment, can cumulatively lead patients to continued deconditioning and low ex
- Exercise training for bronchiectasis
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 2-Apr-2021
Bronchiectasis is characterised by excessive sputum production, chronic cough, and acute exacerbations and is associated with symptoms of dyspnoea and fatigue, which reduce exercise tolerance and impair quality of life. Exercise training in isolation or i
- Exercise training to improve exercise capacity and quality of life in people with non-malignant dust-related respiratory diseases
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 4-Nov-2015
Non-malignant dust-related respiratory diseases, such as asbestosis and silicosis, are similar to other chronic respiratory diseases and may be characterised by breathlessness, reduced exercise capacity and reduced health-related quality of life. Some non
- Exercise training undertaken by people within 12 months of lung resection for non‐small cell lung cancer
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 17-Jun-2019
Decreased exercise capacity and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) are common in people following lung resection for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Exercise training has been demonstrated to confer gains in exercise capacity and HRQoL for people
- Exercise versus no exercise for the occurrence, severity, and duration of acute respiratory infections
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 4-Apr-2020
Acute respiratory infections (ARIs) last for less than 30 days and are the most common acute diseases affecting people. Exercise has been shown to improve health generally, but it is uncertain whether exercise may be effective in reducing the occurrence,
- Exercise‐based cardiac rehabilitation for adult patients with an implantable cardioverter defibrillator
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 12-Feb-2019
An effective way of preventing sudden cardiac death is the use of an implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD). In spite of the potential mortality benefits of receiving an ICD device, psychological problems experienced by patients after receiving an I
- Exercise‐based cardiac rehabilitation for adults after heart valve surgery
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 7-May-2021
The impact of exercise-based cardiac rehabilitation (CR) following heart valve surgery is uncertain. We conducted an update of this systematic review and a meta-analysis to assess randomised controlled trial evidence for the use of exercise-based CR follo
- Exercise‐based cardiac rehabilitation for adults with atrial fibrillation
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 9-Feb-2017
Exercise-based cardiac rehabilitation may benefit adults with atrial fibrillation or those who had been treated for atrial fibrillation. Atrial fibrillation is caused by multiple micro re-entry circuits within the atrial tissue, which result in chaotic ra
- Exercise‐based cardiac rehabilitation for adults with heart failure
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 29-Jan-2019
Chronic heart failure (HF) is a growing global health challenge. People with HF experience substantial burden that includes low exercise tolerance, poor health-related quality of life (HRQoL), increased risk of mortality and hospital admission, and high h
- Exercise‐based cardiac rehabilitation for adults with stable angina
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 2-Feb-2018
A previous Cochrane review has shown that exercise-based cardiac rehabilitation (CR) can benefit myocardial infarction and post-revascularisation patients. However, the impact on stable angina remains unclear and guidance is inconsistent. Whilst recommend
- Exercise‐based cardiac rehabilitation for coronary heart disease
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 6-Nov-2021
Coronary heart disease (CHD) is the most common cause of death globally. However, with falling CHD mortality rates, an increasing number of people living with CHD may need support to manage their symptoms and prognosis. Exercise-based cardiac rehabilitati
- Exercise‐based cardiac rehabilitation for people with implantable ventricular assist devices
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 30-Sep-2018
Heart failure is the end stage of heart disease, and the prevalence and incidence of the condition is rapidly increasing. Although heart transplantation is one type of surgical treatment for people with end-stage heart failure, donor availability is limit
- Exercise‐based cardiac rehabilitation in heart transplant recipients
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 4-Apr-2017
Heart transplantation is considered to be the gold standard treatment for selected patients with end-stage heart disease when medical therapy has been unable to halt progression of the underlying pathology. Evidence suggests that aerobic exercise training
- Exercise‐based rehabilitation programmes for pulmonary hypertension
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 18-Jan-2017
Individuals with pulmonary hypertension (PH) have reduced exercise capacity and quality of life. Despite initial concerns that exercise training may worsen symptoms in this group, several studies have reported improvements in functional capacity and well-
- Exercises for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 10-Sep-2012
Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) is a three-dimensional deformity of the spine . While AIS can progress during growth and cause a surface deformity, it is usually not symptomatic. However, in adulthood, if the final spinal curvature surpasses a certa
- Exercises for mechanical neck disorders
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 15-Jan-2015
Neck pain is common, disabling and costly. Exercise is one treatment approach.
- Exercises for prevention of recurrences of low‐back pain
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 20-Jan-2010
Back pain is a common disorder that has a tendency to recur. It is unclear if exercises, either as part of treatment or as a post-treatment programme, can reduce back pain recurrences.
- Exfoliative cytology for diagnosing basal cell carcinoma and other skin cancers in adults
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 4-Dec-2018
Early accurate detection of all skin cancer types is essential to guide appropriate management, reduce morbidity and improve survival. Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is usually localised to the skin but has potential to infiltrate and damage surrounding tissu
