Physical activity levels and influencing factors among colorectal cancer patients: A cross-sectional study

Overall, colorectal cancer patients in China have low levels of physical activity. These findings may provide valuable insights for healthcare professionals to identify individuals with low levels of physical activity and to develop effective intervention strategies. In future clinical practice, healthcare providers can promote physical activity in colorectal cancer patients through interventions aimed at enhancing social interactions, improving proper knowledge and understanding of the disease, and fostering posttraumatic growth.
