Megan S. Farris,Kerry S. Courneya,Karen A. Kopciuk,Karen A. Kopciuk,S. Elizabeth McGregor,S. Elizabeth McGregor,Christine M. Friedenreich,Christine M. Friedenreich +7 more
TL;DR: Results support post‐diagnosis alcohol consumption was associated with increased mortality after prostate cancer diagnosis, specifically for prostate cancer‐related death.
Journal ArticleDOI

Verdonck-de Leeuw,Johannes Brug,Laurien M. Buffart +36 more
TL;DR: This meta-analysis provides some evidence that, compared to control conditions, exercise interventions may improve sleep disturbances, but not sleep quality, in cancer patients, although this effect is of a small magnitude.
Journal ArticleDOI
Testing mediator variables in a physical activity intervention for women with type 2 diabetes
Ronald C. Plotnikoff,David R. Lubans,Christopher Penfold,Christopher Penfold,Kerry S. Courneya +4 more
TL;DR: Perceived behavior control, barrier self-efficacy, and intention are effective mechanisms of PA behavior change in women with type 2 diabetes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Endogenous sex hormone exposure and repetitive element DNA methylation in healthy postmenopausal women.
Devon J. Boyne,Devon J. Boyne,Christine M. Friedenreich,Christine M. Friedenreich,John B. McIntyre,Frank Z. Stanczyk,Kerry S. Courneya,Will D. King +7 more
TL;DR: Current and cumulative estrogen exposure was associated with repetitive element DNA methylation in a group of healthy postmenopausal women, suggesting LINE-1 and Alu methylation may be epigenetic mechanisms through which estrogen exposure impacts cancer risk.
Journal ArticleDOI
Alberta Diabetes and Physical Activity Trial (ADAPT): A randomized theory-based efficacy trial for adults with type 2 diabetes - rationale, design, recruitment, evaluation, and dissemination
Ronald C. Plotnikoff,Ronald C. Plotnikoff,Kerry S. Courneya,Ronald J. Sigal,Ronald J. Sigal,Jeffrey A. Johnson,Nicholas Birkett,David C.W. Lau,Kim D. Raine,Steven T. Johnson,Nandini Karunamuni +10 more
TL;DR: ADAPT will determine whether tailored but low-cost interventions can lead to sustainable increases in PA behaviours and may have implications for practitioners in designing and implementing theory-based physical activity promotion programs for this population of adults with type 2 diabetes.
