Abstract

Background/Objectives: The 24 h activity cycle highlights the need to consider sedentary behavior (SED), non-exercise physical activity (NEPA), and sleep when introducing aerobic exercise. This study assessed changes in these components among breast cancer survivors (BCS) and non-oncologic menopausal women after a 3-month walking (W) or Nordic walking (NW) program. Methods: A total of 324 menopausal women participated: 156 non-oncologic (Meno), 102 BCS with natural menopause (BCS_Meno), and 66 BCS with medically induced menopause (BCS_Ind_Meno). Linear Mixed Effects (LME) modeling was applied. Age, BMI, hormonal therapy, cancer treatments, hypertension, sleep, and METs were included as covariates. Results: BCS_Meno and BCS_Ind_Meno had longer sleep durations at baseline (adj. diff.: +26.5 min/day, 95% CI 10.1 to 43.0; p = 0.002 and +25.7, 95% CI 6.7 to 44.6; p = 0.008). Sleep improved across all groups post-intervention (overall adj. effect = +17.4 min/day, 95% CI 4.8 to 30.0; p = 0.007). Higher sleep and METs were associated with reduced SED (sleep: β = −43.7 min/day per unit increase, −52.6 to −34.8; METs: β = −115.4, −126.4 to −104.4; both p < 0.001). A significant group × time interaction showed a decrease in SED in the BCS_Ind_Meno group (adj. diff. = −65.1 min/day, −102.8 to −27.4; p = 0.001). NEPA was negatively influenced by sleep (β = −8.7 min/day, −16.2 to −1.1, p = 0.024) and positively by METs (β = +121.1, 111.8 to 130.3; p < 0.001). NEPA increased only in BCS_Ind_Meno (adj. diff.: +70.6 min/day, 38.4 to 102.7; p < 0.001), not in BCS_Meno (+9.87, −18.7 to 38.4; p = 0.497). Conclusions: BCS_Ind_Meno showed the greatest benefits, with reduced SED, increased NEPA, and improved sleep. Sleep improved across all groups following aerobic interventions.

  • Resistance exercise improves insulin sensitivity.

    “Furthermore, resistance exercise improves insulin sensitivity, which is essential for managing obesity, diabetes, and metabolic syndrome [66].”

    From A Narrative Review on GLP-1 Receptor Agonists for Obesity in Older Women: Maximizing Weight Loss While Preserving Lean Mass (2026) · cites this paper as [66]

    The Interventions section describes supervised aerobic walking, and the Outcomes section focuses on sedentary time, non-exercise physical activity, and sleep; no page numbers are available in our copy. Searches for resistance exercise, insulin sensitivity, and related metabolic terms found no passage addressing whether resistance exercise improves insulin sensitivity. (LLM, conf=0.75)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
