Hazard ratios for adherence to each healthy lifestyle behavior and mortality.
Adherence was defined as: Never smoker, lifetime healthy body weight maintenance (expressed as lifetime highest body mass index between 18.5 and 24.9 kg/m2), participation in moderate to vigorous physical activity 5 or more times per week, moderate alcohol consumption (5-15g per day for females and 5-30g per day for males) and high diet quality (expressed as HEI score in the highest 40% of the study population distribution (HEI score > 69.3)). Adjusted for: age at study entry (years), sex, race/ethnicity (Non-Hispanic white, Non-Hispanic black, Mexican-American, Other), time between diagnosis and inclusion in the study (years), marital status (married/living together, never married/widowed or divorced/separated), socioeconomic status (poor, near poor, middle income, higher income or unknown), daily energy consumption (kcal/d) and type of cancer diagnosed (female cancers, male cancers, gastrointestinal cancers or other cancers).
