Pre- and post-diagnosis physical activity, television viewing, and mortality among hematologic cancer survivors.

The associations of physical activity and television (TV) viewing with mortality risk among individuals with hematologic malignancies remain unclear.We examined the relations of physical activity and TV viewing time before and after diagnosis with mortality among 5182 U.S. adults aged 50-71 years from the NIH-AARP Diet and Health Study cohort who survived a first primary hematologic cancer between 1995-1996 and 2011.For the pre- and post-diagnosis analyses, we confirmed 2606 and 613 deaths respectively.
