The aim of the study was to compare the effects of aerobic exercise training and yoga on the functional capacity, peripheral muscle strength, quality of life (QOL), and fatigue in breast cancer survivors.
A total of 52 patients with a diagnosis of breast cancer were included in the study. The patients were randomly assigned to 2 groups: aerobic exercise (n = 28) and yoga added to aerobic exercise (n = 24). Both groups participated in submaximal exercise 30 minutes/d, 3 d/wk for 6 weeks. The second group participated in a 1-hour yoga program in addition to aerobic exercise training. Functional capacity was assessed by the 6-Minute Walk Test (6MWT). Peripheral muscle strength was evaluated with a hand-held dynamometer. The fatigue severity level was assessed with the Fatigue Severity Scale (FSS). The QOL was determined by the European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire.
There were statistically significant increases in peripheral muscle strength, the 6MWT distance, and the perception of QOL in both groups (P < .05). Additionally, the group with aerobic exercise and yoga showed marked improvement compared with the aerobic exercise group in fatigue perception (P < .05).
According to the data from this study, aerobic exercise training and yoga improved the functional capacity and QOL of breast cancer patients. Aerobic exercise programs can be supported by body mind techniques, such as yoga, in the rehabilitation of cancer patients for improving functional recovery and psychosocial wellness.
本研究旨在比较有氧运动训练和瑜伽对乳腺癌幸存者的功能能力、外周肌肉力量、生活质量（QOL）和疲劳的影响。
本研究共纳入52例乳腺癌患者。患者被随机分为两组：有氧运动组（n = 28）和有氧运动加瑜伽组（n = 24）。两组均进行次最大强度运动，每天30分钟，每周3天，共6周。第二组除有氧运动训练外，还参加1小时的瑜伽课程。通过6分钟步行试验（6MWT）评估功能能力。使用手持测力计评估外周肌肉力量。使用疲劳严重程度量表（FSS）评估疲劳严重程度。生活质量由欧洲癌症研究与治疗组织生活质量问卷确定。
两组的外周肌肉力量、6MWT距离和生活质量感知均有统计学意义的增加（P < .05）。此外，有氧运动加瑜伽组在疲劳感知方面与有氧运动组相比有显著改善（P < .05）。
根据本研究的数据，有氧运动训练和瑜伽改善了乳腺癌患者的功能能力和生活质量。在癌症患者的康复中，有氧运动计划可以辅以身心技巧，如瑜伽，以改善功能恢复和心理社会健康。
