20.500.12556/RUL-135035 Six-minute walk distance in breast cancer survivors a systematic review with meta-analysis The six-minute walk test (6MWT) is a widely used test for the indirect measurement of cardiorespiratory fitness in various cancer populations. Although the 6MWT is a simple test, there are no normative values for breast cancer survivors (BCS) or comparisons of results with healthy counterparts. A systematic review with a meta-analysis was carried out, which included studies from 2007 to 2020. Ninety-one studies were found, 21 of which were included in the quantitative synthesis. Among them were 9 randomized controlled trials (RCT), 8 prospective cohort studies and 4 cross-sectional studies. A total of 1084 BCS were included. Our results revealed that healthy subjects (n = 878) covered a significantly greater distance than BCS during the 6MWT (589.9 m vs. 477.4 m, p < 0.001), and the results of the meta-regression analysis showed that the 6MWD was predicted by the participants’ BMI (p < 0.001), but not by their age (p = 0.070). After adjustment for BMI, the healthy subjects also covered greater distances than the BCS (103 m; p < 0.001). The normative values of 6MWT were presented for BCS. Besides, 6MWT distances distinguish between their healthy counterparts, therefore, the 6MWT distance is a relevant parameter for the assessment and monitoring of cardiorespiratory fitness in medical and exercise interventions for BCS. sport female cardio-respiratory fitness reference values breast cancer six minute walk test šport ženske kardiorespiratorni fitnes srčno-žilni fitnes normativne vrednosti test šestminutne hoje rak dojk true false true Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik Članek v reviji 2022-02-18 08:09:35 2022-02-18 08:09:36 2022-09-14 04:11:18 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2021 0 0 13 str. iss. 5, art. 2591 Vol. 18 2021 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 616-006:796.01 1660-4601 10.3390/ijerph18052591 54053379 RAZ_But-Hadzic_Jasna_2021.pdf RAZ_But-Hadzic_Jasna_2021.pdf 1 91457397AA8BEEB18908254D26C62C6A aa95547993265f2794a1c1f9dcbe38db7d1aff524aaa61326cfc83675e854071 dec8c448-9089-11ec-abdb-00155dcfd717 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=153868 https://www.mdpi.com/1660-4601/18/5/2591 1 7df4ab13-9089-11ec-abdb-00155dcfd717 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=153867 Medicinska fakulteta Fakulteta za šport 0 0 0
