Objective:

To investigate the association between patterns of physical activity and the risk of malignant neoplasms of the female reproductive system.

Key Findings:
  • During a median follow-up of 12.6 years, 419 incident cases of malignant neoplasms were recorded.
  • Women engaging in evening MVPA had a higher risk of developing reproductive system malignancies (HR = 1.530).
  • Women in the mixed-time MVPA group also showed an elevated risk (HR = 1.406).
  • No significant associations were found for the midday-afternoon group or specific types of malignancies.
Interpretation:

Limitations:
  • The study did not find statistically significant associations with specific types of female genital organ malignancies.
  • Potential confounding factors were adjusted for, but residual confounding may still exist.
Conclusion:
