RECRUITING

A Study of High-intensity Strength Training and Thoracic Aorta Dilatation

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

The purpose of this study is to describe the prevalence of thoracic aorta dilatation among a group of older (age \> 35 years), experienced weightlifters (\>5 years of weightlifting experience). The secondary aim of this study is to report the prevalence of thoracic aorta dilatation among 3 different groups of weightlifters (body builders, cross-fit athletes, and power lifters).
