Abbreviations: CVD = cardiovascular disease; S-MVPA = sufficient moderate and vigorous-intensity physical activity; I-MVPA = insufficient-MVPA. Values are the mean (95% CI) and percentage (95% CI) for continuous and categorical variables, respectively.
Cardiovascular disease status was determined based on self-reported medical conditions on coronary artery disease (heart attack and coronary heart disease), heart failure, and stroke that were told by a doctor or other health professionals.
P-value is for the between-group differences estimated from a linear regression model for a continuous variable and Rao-Scott x2 test of independence for a categorical variable.
Weighted population % indicates the prevalence estimates among US adult women aged ≥18 years old (weighted N = 112,443,001).
Weighted % indicates the prevalence estimates within breast cancer survivors.
Self-reported cardiovascular health was obtained for adults aged ≥40 years old (n = 645) by asking a series of questions about pain or discomfort in chest.
Self-reported physical activity data was used to determine the level of moderate- and vigorous-intensity physical activity.
