背景：研究表明，体力活动可以降低女性乳腺癌患者的死亡风险，提高生活质量，减轻体重，并改变循环生物标志物水平。我们进行了一项试点试验，以确定通过文化舞蹈干预增加身体活动以实现类似益处的可行性。方法：进行了一项试点试验，实施文化舞蹈干预以增加和维持乳腺癌幸存者的身体活动，其中包括为期六个月的草裙舞小组干预。在基线、6 个月干预结束时（时间点第 6 个月）以及干预后另外两个时间点（第 12 个月和第 24 个月）完成人体测量、空腹抽血和自我报告问卷，以评估身体活动、情绪和生活质量，以评估可持续性。结果：共有 11 名中位年龄为 63 岁的女性参加了干预试验。 11 名女性中有 8 名参加了干预试验。 (73%) 完成了试验至第 12 个月，并显示每周适度运动量总体显着增加。个体内质量指数（BMI）没有显着变化。然而，干预后腰围持续减少，循环生物标志物水平发生显着变化。对于自我报告的测量结果，活力/活动显着增加（p < 0.001；情绪状态简表）。结论：我们的干预试点试验表明，文化舞蹈项目可以实现乳腺癌幸存者体力活动的可持续增加，有可能改善生活质量、增加活力并降低与肥胖和炎症相关的循环细胞因子水平。
Background: Studies have shown that physical activity can reduce the risk of mortality for female breast cancer patients and improve quality of life, reduce weight, and alter circulating biomarker levels. We conducted a pilot trial to determine the feasibility of increasing physical activity through a cultural dance intervention to achieve similar benefits.Methods: Conducted a pilot trial implementing a cultural dance intervention to increase and sustain physical activity for breast cancer survivors, which consisted of a six-month group-based intervention of Hula Dance. Anthropometric measures, fasting blood draws, and self-reported questionnaires to assess physical activity, mood, and quality of life, were completed at baseline, at the end of the 6-month intervention (time point month-6), and at two additional post-intervention time points (month-12 and month-24) to assess sustainability.Results: A total of 11 women with a median age of 63 years were enrolled in the intervention triaL Eight of the 11 (73%) completed the trial to month-12 and demonstrated an overall significant increase in weekly moderate exercise. There were no significant changes in intra-individual body mass index (BMI). However, there was a sustained post-intervention reduction in waist circumference and significant changes in circulating biomarker levels. For the self-reported measures, there was a significant increase in vigor/activity (p < 0.001; Profile of Mood States-Short Form).Conclusion: Our intervention pilot trial demonstrated that a cultural dance program could achieve a sustainable increase in physical activity for breast cancer survivors, with potential to improve quality of life, increase vigor, and decrease levels of circulating cytokines associated with obesity and inflammation.
