Likewise, within cancer survivors, the mean compliance score significantly increased 0-3 years postdiagnosis (MD = 0.07, P < .05) compared to pre-diagnosis, but this significant improvement was not maintained over the longer term (MD = 0.037, P > .05). Conclusion: In this sample, survivors had higher MHB score than controls. A cancer diagnosis may provide a teachable moment for health behavior change in the period immediately following diagnosis, but this effect was not sustained during longer-term survivorship.]]> Wed 22 Feb 2023 15:02:13 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:35698 Wed 17 Nov 2021 16:28:24 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:38208 p = 0.02) and consumed more fruit (≥ 2 serves/day; 57.4% to 66.4%; p = 0.01) in the recent survivorship period, but were less likely to be classified in the healthy weight range (p < 0.01). The proportion of non-drinkers and non-smokers slightly increased over the survivorship period. Whole-vegetable intake did not significantly change; however, the intake of non-starchy vegetables significantly increased from pre-diagnosis (LS mean = 89.1g/day) to post-diagnosis, 6 to ≤ 9 years (LS mean = 137.1g/day), and 9 to ≤ 12 years (LS mean = 120.8g/day). There were no significant changes in the total intake of fibre, carotenoids, calcium, fat, saturated fat, vitamin C, or vitamin E observed, except for increased total energy intake (p = 0.012). Conclusion: Before diagnosis, BCSs had similar adherence to health behaviours compared to cancer-free women. Initial positive changes to health behaviours were observed post BC diagnosis, except healthy body weight, but maintenance of such changes over the long-term was poor. BCSs may benefit from additional advice and support to make healthy lifestyle choices throughout survivorship.]]> Mon 29 Jan 2024 17:55:50 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:36889 5 years) survivors (PE 25%; 95% CI, 14%, 36%). Adherence to multiple behaviours improved over time since 2007. Conclusion: Adherence to physical activity, dietary, and multiple lifestyle behaviours recommendations was low amongst cancer survivors. Recent cancer survivors were relatively more adherent to WCRF/AICR recommendations compared to long-term survivors. Implications for Cancer Survivors: Health promotion programs help support healthy lifestyle behaviours of cancer survivors.]]> Fri 22 Apr 2022 10:24:30 AEST ]]>
