A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials for physical activity among colorectal cancer survivors: directions for future research by Jiayu Mao, Xiaoke Qiu, Yi Zhang, Can Wang, Xueli Yang, Qiuping Li

“…Results of subgroup analysis revealed that supervised PA interventions (Z = 2.82, p = 0.005) and PA interventions with multiple intervention components (Z = 3.06, p = 0.002) effectively increased total PA levels for CRC survivors. In addition, research evidence suggests that daily as the frequency (Z = 4.28, p < 0.001), Moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) as the intensity (Z = 2.29, p = 0.022), aerobic combined with resistance exercise as the type of PA (Z = 4.19, p < 0.001) is appropriate for increasing total PA levels in CRC survivors. …”
