We tested the feasibility and preliminary efficacy of an online diet and physical activity program for women with early-stage breast cancer who had completed surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy (ongoing endocrine therapy allowed). Participants with low fruit and vegetable (F/V) consumption and/or low moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) levels were randomized to one of two doses - low (one Zoom group session) or high (12 Zoom group sessions) - of an online lifestyle program with the goal of improving F/V intake and MVPA. All participants received eHealth communications (text messages, study website access), a Fitbit, and a WiFi-enabled scale.

Methods: All cases referred to the Amsterdam University Medical Centers between 2007 and 2021 for a prenatal suspected SBO, supplemented by cases of postnatal diagnosis of SBO, were included. The primary outcome was survival after 24 weeks of gestation until the first year of life.
Background: The design of a randomized pilot trial evaluating the feasibility of two doses of a digital health intervention promoting changes in nutrition and physical activity in breast cancer (BC) survivors is described.
Methods: Eligible women were adults with history of early-stage breast cancer and > 60 days post-treatment, consumed <5 servings/day of fruits/vegetables and/or engaged in <150 min/week of aerobic moderate-to-vigorous physical activity, and had internet access. Participants were randomized to 6 months of either a "low" (1 session) or "high" (12 sessions) dose digital health intervention.
Background: Accessible nutrition resources tailored to patients with cancer, caregivers of cancer survivors, and people interested in cancer prevention are limited. Cook for Your Life is a bilingual (ie, English and Spanish) website providing science-based, nutrition information for people affected by cancer.
Objective: The aim of this study was to describe the characteristics of Cook for Your Life website users.
