Summary
This completed study looked at how physical activity, fitness, and sitting time relate to insulin resistance (a diabetes risk factor) in 40 breast cancer survivors taking hormone therapy. Participants wore activity monitors and underwent tests for fitness, body composition, and insulin resistance. The goal is to understand how lifestyle factors might influence diabetes risk in this group.
