Article Synopsis
- A study compared the effects of a remotely supervised weight loss and exercise program (SWET) with lifestyle counseling (CHAT) on older patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and obesity over 16 weeks.
- Both groups showed improvements in metabolic syndrome scores, but the SWET group had greater benefits in weight loss, fat mass, disease activity, and various patient-reported health outcomes.
- The findings suggest that structured weight loss and exercise are more effective than general lifestyle counseling in enhancing overall health and managing RA symptoms in older adults.
Background: Breast (BCa) and prostate (PCa) cancer are two of the most common but survivable cancers. One important component of survivorship that is impacted by treatment long term is diminished quality of life (QoL). Supervised exercise improves QoL and subsequent outcomes but is not accessible for all survivors.
