Feasibility of Measuring Context Specific Sedentary Behavior and Pulse Wave Velocity in Endometrial Cancer Survivors.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

Sedentary behavior (SB) contributes to the heightened risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in endometrial cancer survivors (ECS). This feasibility study aimed to evaluate key outcomes to assess the practicality of SB reduction interventions for ECS. Secondary aims included SB domain assessment and preliminary efficacy testing of the relationship between SB and arterial stiffness.

Methods

Forty stage-1 ECS (BMI ≥ 25.0 kg/m², aged 50-80, <12 months post-treatment) participated in the study, which measured total and domain-specific SB using accelerometry and ecological momentary assessment (EMA). Aortic pulse wave velocity (PWV) was estimated via Mobil-O-Graph, and linear regression models examined the association between SB and PWV.

Results

The study achieved 4
