Late effects can be exacerbated by low physical activity (PA) levels. Relationships between PA and cardiovascular risk factors during childhood have not been well described in CCS. Procedure PA and cardiovascular risk factors were measured cross-sectionally in 319 CCS and 208 sibling controls aged 9–18 years.
