目标。比较接受和不接受太极 (TC) 气功训练的乳腺癌幸存者与健康个体的肩部活动能力、肌肉力量和生活质量 (QOL)，并探讨接受定期太极 (TC) 气功训练的乳腺癌幸存者肩部损伤与生活质量 (QOL) 之间的关联。方法。 11 名定期接受TC 气功训练的乳腺癌幸存者、12 名久坐的乳腺癌幸存者和16 名健康参与者完成了这项研究。分别通过测角仪和等速测力计评估肩部活动度和旋转肌力量。使用乳腺癌治疗功能评估（FACT-B）问卷评估生活质量。结果。三组中屈曲、外展和手背方向主动运动范围的测角测量结果相似。接受TC气功训练的乳腺癌幸存者的肩旋转肌等速峰值扭矩（180°/s）明显高于未训练的乳腺癌幸存者，其等速肩肌力量达到了健康人的水平。对于接受TC气功训练的乳腺癌幸存者来说，更强的肩部肌肉力量与更好的功能健康显着相关。然而，FACT-B 总分没有发现显着的组间差异。结论。 TC 气功训练可能会改善乳腺癌幸存者的肩部肌肉力量和功能健康。
Objectives. To compare the shoulder mobility, muscular strength, and quality of life (QOL) among breast cancer survivors with and without Tai Chi (TC) Qigong training to those of healthy individuals and to explore the associations between shoulder impairments and QOL in breast cancer survivors with regular TC Qigong training. Methods. Eleven breast cancer survivors with regular TC Qigong training, 12 sedentary breast cancer survivors, and 16 healthy participants completed the study. Shoulder mobility and rotator muscle strength were assessed by goniometry and isokinetic dynamometer, respectively. QOL was assessed using the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Breast (FACT-B) questionnaire. Results. Goniometric measurements of the active range of motion in the flexion, abduction, and hand-behind-the-back directions were similar among the three groups. The TC Qigong-trained breast cancer survivors had significantly higher isokinetic peak torques of the shoulder rotator muscles (at 180°/s) than untrained survivors, and their isokinetic shoulder muscular strength reached the level of healthy individuals. Greater shoulder muscular strength was significantly associated with better functional wellbeing in breast cancer survivors with TC Qigong training. However, no significant between-group difference was found in FACT-B total scores. Conclusions. TC Qigong training might improve shoulder muscular strength and functional wellbeing in breast cancer survivors.
