Mashup Score: 6PROUD TO RUN THE 2024 BOSTON MARATHON TO SUPPORT THE ELLIE FUND! - 18 day(s) ago
Dear Family and Friends,I am thrilled to announce that on April 15th, I will be running my 11th consecutive Boston Marathon in support of the Ellie Fund, a non-profit organization that provides essential support for those receiving treatment for breast cancer in Massachusetts. This year I am thrilled to run the Boston Marathon in honor of a remarkable source of inspiration, Lynne Cao. Lynne’s journey began with a diagnosis of early-stage HER2-positive breast cancer in 2016. Her diagnosis occurred at a challenging time- she was in her 30s, with 2 young children, ages 3 and 5. Since 2017, Lynne has displayed extraordinary courage, as she has navigated multiple treatments for her brain metastasis, including neurosurgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy. Currently, Lynne is thriving as she continues to receive HER2-directed therapy.In the face of her illness, Lynne’s resilience and strength shine brightly. Her incredible spirit not only uplifts her husband Mike, her 2 children, sup

Mashup Score: 17Pan-Cancer Analysis of Postdiagnosis Exercise and Mortality - 29 day(s) ago
PURPOSE The impact of postdiagnosis exercise on cause-specific mortality in cancer survivors and whether this differs on the basis of cancer site is unclear. METHODS We performed an analysis of 11,480 patients with cancer enrolled in the Prostate, Lung, Colorectal, and Ovarian cancer screening trial. Patients with a confirmed diagnosis of cancer completing a standardized survey quantifying exercise after diagnosis were included. The primary outcome was all-cause mortality (ACM); secondary end points were cancer mortality and mortality from other causes. Cox models were used to estimate the cause-specific hazard ratios (HRs) for ACM, cancer, and noncancer mortality as a function of meeting exercise guidelines versus not meeting guidelines with adjustment for important clinical covariates. RESULTS After a median follow-up of 16 years from diagnosis, 4,665 deaths were documented (1,940 due to cancer and 2,725 due to other causes). In multivariable analyses, exercise consistent with guidel
