What is Prospective Associations of Daily Step Counts and Intensity With Cancer and Cardiovascular Disease Incidence and Mortality and All-Cause Mortality about?

## Importance: Recommendations for the number of steps per day may be easier to enact for some people than the current time- and intensity-based physical activity guidelines, but the evidence to support steps-based goals is limited. ## Objective: To describe the associations of step count and intensity with all-cause mortality and cancer and cardiovascular disease (cvd) incidence and mortality. ## Design, setting, and participants: This population-based prospective cohort study used data from the uk biobank for 2013 to 2015 (median follow-up, 7 years) and included adults 40 to 79 years old in england, scotland, and wales. participants were invited by email to partake in an accelerometer study. registry-based morbidity and mortality were ascertained through october 2021. data analyses were performed during march 2022. ## Exposures: Baseline wrist accelerometer-measured daily step count and established cadence-based step intensity measures (steps/min): incidental steps, (<40 steps/min), purposeful steps (≥40 steps/min); and peak-30 cadence (average steps/min for the 30 highest, but not necessarily consecutive, min/d). ## Main outcomes and measures: All-cause mortality and primary and
