Model 1: Adjusted for age at diagnosis (continuous) and sex (male, female).

Model 2: Adjusted for covariates in Model 1 and cancer site (colon, rectum), tumor stage (localized, regional), tumor grade (well differentiated, moderately differentiated, poorly differentiated, undifferentiated), surgery (yes, no), chemotherapy (yes, no), and radiation (yes, no).

Model 3: Adjusted for covariates in Model 2 and education (<12 years, high school, some college, college and post college), smoking (current, former, never smoker), TV viewing (≤2, 3–4, 5–6, 7+ hr/d), and MVPA (never or rarely, 1–3 hr/wk, 4+ hr/wk).

Model 4: Adjusted for covariates in Model 3, BMI (continuous), self-reported health (excellent, very good, good, fair, poor), and history (yes, no) of heart disease, stroke and diabetes.

Model 5: Adjusted for covariates in Model 4 and napping (none, <1 hr/d, 1+ hr/d).

Abbreviations: BMI, bodymass index; CI, confidence interval; HR, hazard ratio; hr, hour; MVPA, moderate-to-vigorous physical activity; SHR, subdistribution hazard ratio.
