abstract = {Physical activity is generally associated with better
outcomes following diagnosis; however, few studies have
evaluated change in pre- to postdiagnosis activity and
repeated measures of activity by intensity and type.We
evaluated physical activity and survival following a breast
cancer diagnosis in the Nurses' Health Study and Nurses'
Health Study II (n = 9308 women, n = 1973 deaths). Physical
activity was evaluated as updated cumulative average of
metabolic equivalent of task (MET)-h/wk (assigned per
activity based on duration and intensity) and change in pre-
to postdiagnosis activity. Cox proportional hazards models
were used to estimate hazard ratios (HRs) and $95\%$
confidence intervals (CIs).Higher postdiagnosis activity was
inversely associated with breast cancer-specific mortality
in categories from ≥9 MET-h/wk (vs <3 MET h/wk, HR≥9 to
<18 = 0.74 $[95\%$ CI = 0.55 to 0.99]; HR≥27 = 0.69
$[95\%$ CI = 0.50 to 0.95]; Ptrend = .04) and all-cause
mortality from ≥3 MET-h/wk (HR≥3 to <9 = 0.73 $[95\%$ CI
= 0.61 to 0.88]; HR≥27 = 0.51 $[95\%$ CI = 0.41 to 0.63];
Ptrend < .001). Associations were predominantly observed for
estrogen receptor-positive tumors and in postmenopausal
women. Walking was associated with lower risk of all-cause
mortality (≥9 vs <3 MET-h/wk, HR= 0.69 $[95\%$ CI = 0.57
to 0.84]) as was strength training. Relative to stable
activity pre- to postdiagnosis (±3 MET-h/wk), increases
from ≥3 to 9 MET-h/wk were associated with lower all-cause
mortality risk (Ptrend < .001). Results were robust to
adjustment for prediagnosis physical activity.Physical
activity was associated with lower risk of death following
diagnosis. Increased pre- to postdiagnosis activity
corresponding to at least 1-3 h/wk of walking was associated
with lower risk of death. These results provide further
impetus for women to increase their activity after a breast
cancer diagnosis, though reverse causation cannot be fully
excluded.},
