Comparative Effectiveness of Psychosocial Protective Factors for Prostate Cancer Survivorship ‐ A UK Biobank Study

This study demonstrates that participation in sports club or gym, engaging in religious groups and other group activities, forming good health habits such as smoking cessation, and having people to confide in regularly is associated with reduced mortality risk in prostate cancer patients. These findings highlight the importance of integrating psychosocial resilience, health behaviour optimisation, and spiritual engagement into survivorship care. The hierarchical risk reduction profile supports prioritising interventions targeting modifiable health behaviours, spiritual/social support, and group activities. While religious participation is associated with notable survival benefits, this study recognises the complex interplay of cultural, social, and personal factors influencing engagement in such activities. These findings advocate for stratified survivorship care models prioritising engagement modalities with dual physiological, psychosocial, and spiritual benefits.
