Hazard ratio of type 2 diabetes according to joint categories of stair climbing and genetic risk score. Cox proportional hazards models adjusted for age; sex; race; educational attainment; Townsend deprivation index; household income; employment status; type of accommodation; assessment center; smoking status; alcohol intake; physical activity; a healthy diet score; body mass index; sedentary; walking pace; depression; dyslipidemia; hypertension; cardiovascular disease; cancer; long-standing illness, disability, or infirmity; lipid-lowering treatment; antihypertensive medication use; aspirin use at baseline; the first 10 primary components of ancestry; and genotype measurement batches. The category of “none” (no stair climbing) in the low genetic risk score group was set as the reference group.
