Abstract
ABSTRACT This scoping review assesses participation in exercise interventional research in cancer by kinesiology affiliates. Eligible studies included cancer patients/survivors who were participating in an exercise or training intervention involving a kinesiologist or equivalent. The search of MEDLINE, Embase, Scopus, PsycINFO, SPORTDiscus, and CINAHL yielded 220 eligible studies published between 2002 and 2020 which included 7,475 breast cancer, 2,390 prostate cancer, 4,098 mixed cancer, and 2,123 other cancer participants. The kinesiologist affiliates identified as exercise physiologists (42%), exercise specialists (14%), exercise trainers (26%) and kinesiologists (18%). Kinesiology affiliates implement and supervise interventional research contributing to evidence generation and patient care. Documentation of their contributions may enhance acceptance of kinesiologist affiliates in clinical research and health care for people with cancer and cancer survivors.
期刊介绍:
Quest is the official journal of the National Association for Kinesiology in Higher Education (NAKHE). It is the leading journal for interdisciplinary scholarship for professionals in kinesiology in higher education. Quest provides a public forum for scholarship, creative thought, and research relevant to a broad range of interests held by faculty and leaders in higher education today.
Quest publishes: 1) manuscripts that address issues and concerns relevant and meaningful to the field of kinesiology; 2) original research reports that address empirical questions that are contextualized within higher education and hold significance to a broad range of faculty and administrators in kinesiology; and 3) reviews of literature and/or research of interest to one or more sub-disciplines in kinesiology. Quest does not publish papers focused on sport (e.g., amateur, collegiate, professional) that are contextualized outside of kinesiology in higher education.
