The Impact of Prehabilitation on Patient Outcomes in Oesophagogastric Cancer Surgery: Combined Data from Four Prospective Clinical Trials Performed Across the UK and Ireland Open
Background: Prehabilitation is increasingly being used in patients undergoing multimodality treatment for oesophagogastric cancer (OGC). Most studies to date have been small, single-centre trials. This collaborative study sought to assess …

Managed honey bees, Apis mellifera (Hymenoptera: Apidae), face greater risk from parasites and pathogens than mosquito control insecticide applications Open
As the primary pollinator for many crops, honey bees (Apis mellifera) are critically important to food production and the agricultural economy. Adult mosquito control is often suspected by the public and commercial beekeepers to harm honey…

OGC P37 Long term follow-up of patients undergoing prehabilitation prior to oesophagectomy: What happens to patients declining or withdrawing from prehabilitation exercise programmes? Open
Background Prehabilitative exercise prior to cancer surgery can improve survival, health-related quality of life and chemotherapy completion and response rates. Little is known about patients who either drop-out or decline to participate i…

Exercise prehabilitation during neoadjuvant chemotherapy may enhance tumour regression in oesophageal cancer: results from a prospective non-randomised trial Open
Background There is increasing evidence for the use of exercise in cancer patients and data supporting enhanced tumour volume reduction following chemotherapy in animal models. To date, there is no reported histopathological evidence of a …
