Acceptability and functional benefits of a health promotion program in pediatric oncology: a mixed-methods study

Catherine Demers, Johanne Higgins, Johanne Kerba, Isabelle Bouchard et autres

Background The increasing number of childhood cancer survivors and their well-established risk of cancer-related morbidity strongly support the need for effective health promotion (HP) programs. Existing literature suggests that HP interventions may support behaviour change and reduce the severity of some adverse …

Exercise stress cardiac magnetic resonance imaging in cardiac patients

Egidie Uwase, Maxime Caru, Ariane Lévesque, Chloe Sholler et autres

INTRODUCTION: Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging testing protocols used in combination with exercise (Ex-CMR) facilitate the characterization of the heart by differentiating between normal cardiac remodeling and pathological cardiac remodeling. Studies have reported challenges when using Ex-CMR, limiting its clinical use. Hence, this …

Parent and child physical activity as possible predictors of quality of life in pediatric brain tumor patients: a dyadic analysis

Ariane Lévesque, D. Saravanan, Sébastien Perreault, Serge Sultan et autres

Introduction Children diagnosed with a pediatric brain tumor (PBT) are at risk for deficits that can affect their quality of life (QoL). One potential avenue to target the QoL of these patients is physical activity (PA). This study aimed to evaluate the …

Prediction of the mechanical properties of the myocardium from CMR clinical type protocol in acute lymphoblastic leukemia survivors.

Delphine Périé, Daniel Y. Curnier

Motivation: Doxorubicin-based chemotherapy entails dose-dependent cardiotoxicity that could be revealed by subtle changes in myocardium mechanical properties. Goal(s): To predict the mechanical properties in acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) from previous established relationships to CMR parameters. Approach: Left ventricle stiffness, contractility and pressure …

Explaining adherence to contrasted physical activity and nutrition scenarios in post-treatment childhood cancer patients: A cross-sectional study using variables from the Theory of Planned Behavior

Ariane Lévesque, Daniel Y. Curnier, Valérie Marcil, Maxime Caru et autres

Children diagnosed with cancer are vulnerable to long-term health issues. Engaging in physical activity (PA) and adopting a healthy diet could mitigate these risks. This study aimed to understand the role of variables from the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) in adherence …

Poor Diet Quality is Associated with Premature Senescence of the Immune System in Survivors of Childhood Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia

Abderrahim Benmoussa, Tibila Kientega, Sophia Morel, Guillaume B. Cardin et autres

Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most common pediatric cancer. Contributory factors such as inflammation and oxidative stress, in response to drug therapies, may induce premature aging and cellular senescence with a severe impact on cardiometabolic health. Premature immunoaging through cellular senescence …
