Description

Alem Gebremariam and colleagues studied in 2026 leisure-time physical activity and cancer odds in adults with and without cardiometabolic disease. Most activity research covers general populations, leaving the preventive value for adults with heart disease or type 2 diabetes unclear.

Pooling individual data on 598,890 adults aged 35 to 70 from EPIC and UK Biobank, with a median follow-up of 11 years, they tracked a composite of 15 activity-related cancers. Each standard-deviation rise in non-occupational activity tied to lower cancer risk, with hazard ratios of 0.96 without cardiometabolic disease and 0.93 with it. The benefit thus looks equal in both groups, supporting activity guidance for adults with chronic disease too.
