简要总结
RATIONALE: Yoga may improve inflammation, fatigue, and depression in female breast cancer survivors.
PURPOSE: This randomized clinical trial is studying how well Hatha yoga works in improving physical activity, inflammation, fatigue, and distress in female breast cancer survivors.
详细描述
OBJECTIVES:
Primary
- To determine if the yoga intervention will decrease inflammation, fatigue, and depressive symptoms relative to the waiting-list controls in women who are stage 0-IIIa breast cancer survivors.
OUTLINE: Patients are stratified according to stage of cancer (stage 0 vs stage I vs stage II and stage IIIA) and prior radiation therapy (yes vs no). Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 intervention arms.
- Arm I (waiting-list control): Patients are encouraged to perform usual activities, but asked to refrain from any yoga practice or other related activities. After a six-month observation period, patients undergo yoga intervention as described in arm II .
- Arm II (yoga intervention): Patients participate in a Hatha yoga intervention session comprising body postures and breath control techniques for 1.5 hours twice a week for 12 weeks. Patients are encouraged to practice Hatha yoga at home. Patients complete daily diaries on home Hatha yoga practices and submit them at each session.

结局指标
主要结局
Stimulated ln (TNF-a)
时间窗: Immediately post-treatment and 3 months post-treatment
log-transformed Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulated Tumor Necrosis Factor-alpha (TNF-alpha)
Stimulated ln (IL-6)
时间窗: Immediately post-treatment and 3 months post-treatment
log-transformed Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulated Interleukin-6 (IL-6)
Stimulated ln (IL-1b)
时间窗: Immediately post-treatment and 3 months post-treatment
log-transformed Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulated Interleukin-1 beta (IL-1b)
MFSI-SF Fatigue
时间窗: Immediately post-treatment and 3 months post-treatment
The 30-item Multidimensional Fatigue Symptom Inventory-Short form (MFSI-SF) assesses behavioral, cognitive, physical, and affective expressions of fatigue. Items are rated on a 5-point scale indicating how true each statement was for the respondent during the last week (0=not at all; 4=extremely). The total score represents the sum of the subscales measuring general, physical, emotional, and mental fatigue, minus the vigor scale, providing a possible range of scores from -24 to 96, with higher scores indicating greater fatigue.
Vitality, SF-36
时间窗: Immediately post-treatment and 3 months post-treatment
The SF-36's (RAND Health Survey) energy/fatigue (vitality) scale focuses on the frequency of feelings of fatigue over the last month. Standardized scores on the RAND SF-36 vigor/vitality scale range from 0-100, with higher scores indicating less fatigue.
CES-D
时间窗: Immediately post-treatment and 3 months post-treatment
The Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale (CES-D) is a self-report scale designed to measure current symptoms of depression rated on a four-point likert scale. Scores range from 0-60, with higher scores indicating a higher frequency of depressive symptoms.
