简要总结
The prevalence of overweight and obesity are increasing worldwide. In the U.S., approximately 85,000 new cancer cases per year are related to obesity. Understanding lifestyle behaviors, their causes, and relations to cancer are critical. Where people spend their time during the day may be related to their risk of getting cancer. This project will assess behaviors in different locations across the day and relate exposure to different environments to biological outcomes.
详细描述
The purpose of this study is to advance methods of cancer risk exposure assessment by measuring both neighborhood access and total environment exposure to healthy environments by dynamically integrating Global Positioning System (GPS) data with Geographical Information System (GIS) data. We hypothesize that dynamic GPS based measures of environmental exposure will be more strongly related to behavior and insulin and inflammation biomarkers than static address based GIS measures of access.
Primary Aim:
To compare Dynamic vs Static GIS measures of physical activity (PA) supportivity and their associations with PA behaviors, body mass index (BMI), and biological markers.
Secondary Aim:
To compare Dynamic vs Static GIS measures of access to healthy food and their associations with dietary intake, BMI, and biological markers.
