A narrative report based on t... Read More about The changing landscape of cardiac rehabilitation; from early mobilisation and reduced mortality to chronic multi-morbidity management.

Developing a Complex Understanding of Physical Activity in Cardiometabolic Disease from Low-to-Middle-Income Countries—A Qualitative Systematic Review with Meta-Synthesis (2021)
Journal Article
Heine, M., Badenhorst, M., van Zyl, C., de Melo Ghisi, G., Babu, A., Buckley, J., Serón, P., Turk-Adawi, K., & Derman, W. (2021). Developing a Complex Understanding of Physical Activity in Cardiometabolic Disease from Low-to-Middle-Income Countries—A Qualitative Systematic Review with Meta-Synthesis. International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 11977 - 11977. https://doi.org/10.3390/ijerph182211977

Physical activity behaviour is complex, particularly in low-resource settings, while existing behavioural models of physical activity behaviour are often linear and deterministic. The objective of this review was to (i) synthesise the wide scope of f...

Adherence to Pre-operative Exercise and the Response to Prehabilitation in Oesophageal Cancer Patients (2020)
Journal Article
Halliday, L. J., Doganay, E., Wynter-Blyth, V., Osborn, H., Buckley, J., & Moorthy, K. (2021). Adherence to Pre-operative Exercise and the Response to Prehabilitation in Oesophageal Cancer Patients. Journal of Gastrointestinal Surgery, 25(4), 890-899. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11605-020-04561-2

BACKGROUND: Prehabilitation is thought to reduce post-operative respiratory complications by optimising fitness before surgery. This prospective, single-centre study aimed to establish the effect of pre-operative exercise on cardiorespiratory fitness...

Journal Article
Buckley, J. P., Prince, S. A., Cardilli, L., Reed, J. L., Saunders, T. J., Kite, C., Douillette, K., & Fournier, K. (2020). A comparison of self-reported and device measured sedentary behaviour in adults: a systematic review and meta-analysis. International Journal of Behavioral Nutrition and Physical Activity, 17(1), Article ARTN 31. https://doi.org/10.1186/s12966-020-00938-3

BACKGROUND: Sedentary behaviour (SB) is a risk factor for chronic disease and premature mortality. While many individual studies have examined the reliability and validity of various self-report measures for assessing SB, it is not clear, in general,...

Background
The incremental shuttle walk test (ISWT) is a standardised assessment for cardiac rehabilitation. Three studies have reported oxygen costs (VO2)/metabolic equivalents (METs) of the ISWT. In spite of classic representations from these stud...
