Health Behaviors of Cancer Survivors and Population Controls From the National Health Interview Survey (2005-2015).

ABSTRACT:

Background

Population-based data from the National Health Interview Survey were examined to provide estimates of a wide range of health behaviors in cancer survivors (ie, physical activity, sun protection, alcohol use, cigarette and e-cigarette use, sleep, and diet) and trends over time.

All statistical tests are 2-sided.
