Cancer treatment side effects: Exercise may reduce pain, fatigue
Exercise may help mitigate cancer treatment side effects, such as brain fog, pain, and fatigue. Image credit: Hernandez & Sorokina/Stocksy. Researchers recently conducted an umbrella-review to examine the impact exercise can have on people undergoing cancer treatment. The results indicated that exercise can mitigate some of the side effects of cancer treatments across a range of cancer types. Both traditional exercise and mind-body exercises showed benefits. Cancer treatments can cause a host of health problems. For example, among the many side effects of one common type of cancer treatment, chemotherapy , there are pain, gastrointestinal symptoms, and mood changes. While prior research shows that exercise can be helpful in people undergoing cancer treatments, the authors of a new review wanted to systematically assess the most recent evidence supporting this. The researchers found that, according to recent studies, exercise can mitigate some side effects of cancer treatments. Additionally, they learned that pre-operative exercise can reduce post-operative complications. More than 1.7 million new cancer cases were reported in 2021; cancer rates continue to rise for many cancer types each year. People undergoing cancer treatment often have a difficult time both physically and mentally. With this in mind, the researchers wanted to expand on existing research surrounding exercise and cancer. The researchers cast a wide net and used the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development, and Evaluations (GRADE) system to find 485 associations in 80 studies. Since the researchers were concerned that prior reviews were not wide enough in scope, they considered many cancer types such as breast, prostate, and lung cancers. They also included cancers associated with the digestive system, and blood cancers. The researchers next analyzed how well different exercises worked for different cancers. Among the associations, aerobic and resistance exercises made up 9.9% of the associations, HIIT exercises accounted for 3.7%, mind-body exercises made up 28.5%, and other types of exercises not specified accounted for 57.9% of associations. The researchers found that 54% of the associations — between exercise and fewer therapy side effects — that they analyzed were 'statistically significant.' Using GRADE criteria, the researchers also said that 48% of the associations were supported by either high or moderate certainty evidence. One way exercise counteracted the effects of cancer treatments was by reducing pain. HIIT programs and tai chi accomplished this. Exercise also influenced biomarkers such as C-reactive protein (a protein associated with inflammation in the body), insulin, and physiological functioning. Chemotherapy can cause cardiotoxicity — 'damage to the heart and/or cardiovascular system.' The researchers found that exercise, specifically aerobic, can counteract this as well. The benefits of exercise were not limited to physical symptoms; exercise also improved cognitive functioning, anxiety, and depression. Yoga showed significantly improved mental health symptoms. A final benefit of exercise in people undergoing cancer treatment was the reduction of post-operative complications. The researchers found that people who engaged in exercise pre-op were associated with a lower chance of health issues associated with the surgery. Overall, the umbrella study found a significant amount of evidence to support the notion that exercise can help counteract some of the side effects of cancer treatment. From physical to mental benefits, a variety of exercises can provide relief. Bhavana Pathak, MD, a board-certified hematologist and medical oncologist, and medical director of Integrative Oncology at MemorialCare Cancer Institute at Orange Coast and Saddleback Medical Centers, spoke with Medical News Today about the review. 'We want to encourage oncology professionals to counsel their patients on increasing physical activity as a means to improve their clinical outcomes, even when faced with serious diagnoses like cancer, in the future,' said Pathak, who was not involved in the review. She also noted the importance of the findings to the quality of life in people undergoing cancer treatments. 'The therapy we give — while it could keep you alive — can take away a life worth living, without the means to articulate, adapt, and engineer your life,' Pathak noted. 'This type of research speaks to the privilege and challenge both patients and physicians have — designing and choosing treatments that have an impact on the rest of their lives.' Milan Sheth, MD, quadruple board-certified in internal medicine, hematology, oncology, and palliative care at MemorialCare Todd Cancer Institute also spoke with MNT about the review findings. Sheth was also not involved in the review. He told us that the paper 'reinforces what we all suspected based on our own clinical experience amongst patients receiving chemotherapy,' indicating 'that exercise can significantly reduce various side effects associated with cancer and its treatment compared with no exercise.' 'Specifically, the symptoms that seem to be most impacted or improved included peripheral neuropathy, brain fog, fatigue, anxiety, and shortness of breath. Equally important were improvements in the patient's quality of life, in terms of muscle strength, healthier body composition, sleep, quality, and enhanced mood.' When asked why exercise may counteract some of the harmful effects of chemotherapy, he touched on biomarkers associated with cancer. 'Insulin, insulin-like growth factors, and C-reactive protein […] these biomarkers are linked with cancer metabolism and systemic inflammation which can allow for further progression of cancer and eliminate any protective effects against chemotherapy,' said Sheth. He also noted that these biomarkers 'relevant to cancer progression and recovery are, in fact, optimized with exercise.'

How to find out if a school in Spain is good
Those who are unfamiliar with Spain's schooling system may find it difficult to choose which one to send their children to. It's an important decision and you want to make sure you're sending them to the best possible school, or at least one that fits their needs well. How do you find out what ranking a school has and if generally considered to be a good one? In Spain, local families usually judge whether a school is of a high standard based on word of mouth and the school's reputation within the area, but if you're new to a town or city in Spain you may not have that network yet. The good news is that there are various studies on school quality and effectiveness available to help you decide. It's important to know that most of these studies will be in Spanish or another local language such as Catalan in Catalonia, so you will need to get it translated if you don't speak the language or get someone to help. To assess the standards of a school, studies use average scores that schools obtained in Diagnostic Evaluations. Details such as socioeconomic context in which each school operates are also taken into consideration, therefore schools are ranked highly when average results are well above what is statistically expected, given its context. The same criterion applies to what are deemed to be low-quality schools. The main factors looked at when determining a school's grade or ranking are: The students and their teaching-learning process The teachers The school itself as an organisation They also look at which institutions implement the necessary reinforcement and support measures when faced with students that may have difficulties. Recommendable schools in Spain are also considered to be those where students don't have to repeat a year very often. This is to ensure minimum learning levels. Schools that receive higher rankings also typically conduct frequent learning assessments to find out how the students are doing. Of course, teaching staff come very high on the list too. It's important to have educators who are involved in ongoing training and development and who care about their students. It's also important that the school has clearly defined vision and action policy and focuses on organisation. The last factor taken into consideration in school rankings is material resources and the types of installations they have. Do they have sports equipment for example, are large play area or a good art's studio? Many regional education systems have their own reports, but there are also are specific websites and newspapers which rank schools, according to some of the criteria above. For example, lists the top 100 public schools in Spain based on its results, metrics, and ratings. You can also filter the results according to if you want primary or secondary schools, concertado (semi private) or public and of course by area. It will also give each school a ranking out of five based on reviews from other parents who have sent their kids there or know of it in their area. Some of them also leave helpful comments. list for 2025. Keep in mind that many of the schools on the El Español and Forbes lists are international private schools, but if you're looking for a public school it's worth searching through them to see which public or concertado schools made the list.
