BACKGROUND: It is unclear whether muscle blood flow (MBF) is altered in long-term Hodgkin Lymphoma (HL) survivors. We test the hypothesis that: 1) MBF response during mental stress (MS) is impaired in long-term HL survivors; 2) Aerobic exercise training combined with local strength exercise (ET) restores MBF responses during MS in these survivors. METHODS: Eighteen 5-year HL survivors and 10 aged-paired healthy subjects (HC) were studied. Twenty HL survivors were randomly divided into two groups: Exercise-trained (HLT, n=10) and untrained (HLUT, n=10)...
