}PURPOSE
The purpose of this controlled trial was to assess the effect of an approximately 3-wk intrahospital exercise intervention performed during inpatient hospitalization for pediatric allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) on (i) immune cell recovery and (ii) body composition.
METHODS
Immune (i.e., blood counts of leukocytes, monocytes, lymphocytes, and lymphocyte subpopulations) and anthropometric variables (i.e., body mass, body mass index, and estimated fat-free mass…

It is found that a moderate intensity supervised exercise program performed from the beginning of the conditioning phase for HSCT until the end of the neutropenic phase is safe and well tolerated and tends to decrease risk of infections after allogeneic HSCT, as compared with not performing the program.

The apparently bad news is that no drug or drug combination is able to counteract the numerous toxicities of cancer treatment and HSCT and the results showed that survivors have an impaired CRF years after treatment had ended.

Respiratory and skeletal muscle strength and submaximal exercise capacity are reduced in a significant percentage of patients prior to undergoing HSCT, and these observations may help explain musculoskeletal weakness that has been reported in the posttransplant period.
