  1. Abbreviations: CVD, cardiovascular disease; CHD, coronary heart disease; HF, heart failure; MVPA, moderate-to-vigorous intensity physical activity; VPA, vigorous physical activity. VPA/MVPA, the proportion of VPA to MVPA
  2. Model 1 was adjusted for age and sex (male or female)
  3. Model 2 was additionally adjusted for education (college/university or below college), income (< 18,000 or 18,000–52,000 or ≥ 52,000 ￡/year), race (white or others), Townsend index, smoking status (never or current or former), alcohol consumption (0 or 0.1–30 or ≥ 30 g/day), sedentary behavior (hours/day), MVPA (MET-hours/week), BMI (kg/m2), diet quality score and family history of CVD
  4. *The tests for P trends were conducted by assigning the median value as the continuous variable for each group of VPA to MVPA (0%, > 0% to ≤ 30% and > 30%)
