Continuous dose-response associations between physical activity and sedentary time with all-cause mortality, NHANES, 2003–2006. Models adjusted for age (continuous), sex, BMI (continuous), education (<High School, High School (including GED), or > High School), race/ethnicity (Mexican-American, Non-Hispanic White, Non-Hispanic Black, or other), alcohol consumption status (never, former, current or missing), smoking-status (never, former or current), marital status (married/living with partner or widowed/divorced/separated/never married), mobility limitations (any difficulty walking up ten steps or walking a quarter mile), number of medical conditions (continuous score of diabetes, congestive heart failure, coronary heart disease, angina/angina pectoris, heart attack, stroke, cancer or malignancy). MVPA and sedentary time models are mutually adjusted. Analysis in ostensibly healthy individuals excludes participants with baseline mobility limitations or prevalent diabetes, cardiovascular disease, or cancer. Reference levels are placed at the 5th percentile of the exposure distribution in the sample with no follow-up restriction.
