Current activity, interest in more information and willingness to present for special counselling, total and with respect to current activity in the respective field: A. physical activity; B. attention to eating habits; C. use of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM). How to read the figure: E.g. in A. Physical activity, 20% of 338 patients (n = 69, in yellow) reported to be physically active once per week. Of these 69 patients, 58% (n = 40, in green) indicated the wish to receive more information about the impact of physical activity, whereas 41%, n = 28 (in red), did not wish any specific information about this. The blue segment indicates those patients who did not answer the question (missing data). Of the 69 patients being physically active once per week, 55% (n = 38, in green) indicated to be willing to come for special counselling about physical activity and breast cancer, whereas 44%, n = 30 (in red) did not do so. Figure 1A illustrates that the rate of patients willing to come for counselling is lower than the rate of those wishing more information and that the highest interest in further information and/or activity is indicated by those engaging in some physical activity (i.e. once per week).
