To analyze the effect of a protocol based on the Mat Pilates method in an intervention group compared to a usual care control group, on quality of life, fatigue and body image of head and neck cancer survivors.
This was a randomized clinical trial with 30 survivors, allocated into an intervention group and a control group. The intervention group underwent a 12-week Mat Pilates, twice a week, one hour long, and the control group attended two lectures and received weekly follow-up throughout the study period. Data collection took place through individual face-to-face interviews, focusing on assessing the outcomes: quality of life (FACT-H&N); fatigue FACT-F) and body image (BIS).
The Mat Pilates group showed significant improvements compared to the control group in both intragroup and intergroup analyses across the variables: quality of life (in total score ( = 0.007)/( = 0.003), family well-being ( = 0.001)/( = 0.008) and functional well-being ( = 0.001)/( = 0.001)); body image in the total score ( = 0.001)/( = 0.001) and in the subscales: body image ( = 0.046)/( = 0.010), body care ( = 0.026)/( = 0.010) and body touch ( = 0.013)/( = 0.022); fatigue ( = 0.006)/( = 0.003).
Based on these findings, future research could delve deeper into understanding the long-term effects of Mat Pilates interventions on quality of life, body image, and fatigue levels among survivors of head and neck cancer.

分析与常规护理对照组相比，基于垫上普拉提方法的方案对头颈癌幸存者的生活质量、疲劳和身体形象的影响。
这是一项随机临床试验，30名幸存者被分为干预组和对照组。干预组进行为期12周的垫上普拉提训练，每周两次，每次一小时，对照组在整个研究期间参加两场讲座并接受每周随访。通过个人面对面访谈收集数据，重点评估以下结果：生活质量（FACT-H&N）；疲劳（FACT-F）和身体形象（BIS）。
在组内和组间分析中，垫上普拉提组在以下变量上与对照组相比均有显著改善：生活质量（总分（P = 0.007）/（P = 0.003））、家庭幸福感（P = 0.001）/（P = 0.008）和功能幸福感（P = 0.001）/（P = 0.001））；身体形象总分（P = 0.001）/（P = 0.001）以及各子量表：身体形象（P = 0.046）/（P = 0.010）、身体护理（P = 0.026）/（P = 0.010）和身体触觉（P = 0.013）/（P = 0.022）；疲劳（P = 0.006）/（P = 0.003）。
基于这些发现，未来的研究可以更深入地了解垫上普拉提干预对头颈癌幸存者生活质量、身体形象和疲劳水平的长期影响。
