May warrant fitness monitoring in survivors; leaves open whether exercise interventions improve outcomes.
This review highlights the critical need for exercise interventions to improve cardiorespiratory fitness and mitigate the elevated risk of cardiovascular disease in adolescent and young adult survivors of childhood cancer.
Berkman et al. (2015) conducted a review in Childhood cancer. Exercise interventions was evaluated. Cardiorespiratory fitness is lower than expected among childhood cancer survivors 5-20 years post-diagnosis, highlighting the need for exercise interventions to reduce cardiovascular disease risk.
