  1. aModels includes percentage of light and percentage of MVPA as fixed effects and compound symmetry error matrix structure
  2. bModels additionally adjusted for the following fixed effects: mother’s enrollment in the calcium intervention study, mode of childbirth, parity status, child’s age, sex, total time of physical activity, and pubertal onset
  3. cWaist circumference models were additionally adjusted for body mass index
  4. * p < 0.00625
  5. ** p < 0.0001
  6. Back-transform β is expressed as a percentage of change
  7. Abbreviations: WC Waist circumference, SBP Systolic blood pressure, DBP Diastolic blood pressure, TG triglycerides, HDL-C High density lipoprotein cholesterol, HOMA-IR Homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance
