Objectively measured physical activity and sedentary time of breast cancer survivors, and associations with adiposity: Findings from NHANES (2003-2006)
Cancer Causes and Control, 11/09/09
Lynch BM et al. – This is the first study to describe the objectively assessed physical activity and sedentary time of breast cancer survivors. Increasing moderate-to-vigorous and light intensity physical activity, and decreasing sedentary time, may assist with weight management and improve other metabolic health outcomes for breast cancer survivors.
Methods- 111 women from National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2003–2004 and 2005–2006 reported history of breast cancer
- Participants wore accelerometer for 7 days
- Activity levels summarized as moderate-to-vigorous intensity (accelerometer counts/min ≥ 1,952), light intensity (counts/min 100–1,951), and sedentary time (counts/min < 100)
- Anthropometric measures taken by study staff at examination centers
- Participants spent majority of day in sedentary time (66%) or light intensity activities (33%)
- Log moderate-to-vigorous intensity physical activity negatively associated with adiposity (waist circumference &beta = -9.805 [95% CI: -15.836, -3.775]; BMI &beta = -3.576 [95% CI: -6.687, -0.464])
- Light intensity physical activity negatively associated with adiposity but fully adjusted models not statistically significance
- Sedentary time was positively associated with adiposity, but fully adjusted models not statistically significant
