Validation of two short questionnaires assessing physical activity in colorectal cancer patients
Background In order to investigate the impact of adherence to recommendations of physical activity and sedentary time on health outcomes in clinical trials, there is a need for feasible tools such as questionnaires that can give representative estimates of these measures. The primary aim of the present study was to validate two such questionnaires and their ability to estimate adherence to the recommendations of physical activity defined as moderate-to- vigorous physical activity or moderate physical activity of at least 150 min/week in colorectal cancer patients. Secondarily, self-reported sedentary time from the HUNT-PAQ was also evaluated. Methods Participants from 'The Norwegian dietary…

Physical activity, all participants in total and stratified by sex. Physical activity levels based on Norwegian Food Based Dietary Guideline (i.e. moderate intensity physical activity and vigorous intensity physical activity) are presented in minutes per week as both self-reported by NORDIET-FFQ and objectively measured by SenseWear Armband (SWA).

Bland-Altman plots depicting the mean differences (NORDIET-FFQ minus SenseWear Armband (SWA)) for physical activity in minutes per week; A. total-moderate intensity physical activity in minutes/week, B. total-vigorous intensity physical activity, minutes/week. The solid line represents the mean, and the dashed lines represent the 1.96 SDs of the observations. Females denoted as ♀ and males denoted as ♂. (TIF 1133 kb)
