Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation: Improved QOL with physical exercise programs .
This report has been verified
by one or more authors of the
original publication.
This study has been identified as potentially high impact.
OE's AI-driven High Impact metric estimates the influence a paper is likely to have by integrating signals from both the journal in which it is published and the scientific content of the article itself.
Developed using state-of-the-art natural language processing, the OE High Impact model more accurately predicts a study's future citation performance than journal impact factor alone.
This enables earlier recognition of clinically meaningful research and helps readers focus on articles most likely to shape future practice.
Physical exercise for patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation: systematic review and meta-analyses of randomized controlled trials
Phys Ther. 2013 Apr;93(4):514-28. doi: 10.2522/ptj.20120181. Epub 2012 Dec 6.14 studies (n=734) evaluating the effects of a physical exercise program on patients who underwent hematopoietic stem cell transplantation were selected for this review (3 of which were included in the meta-analysis and 11 of which were only qualitatively reviewed). Results from the meta-analysis indicated that there was an increase in quality of life in the physical exercise group compared to the control group at the time of hospital discharge. In addition, there was a significant decrease in levels of fatigue in the intervention group. Lastly, there was no difference between groups in anxiety or depression levels at the time of hospital discharge.
