a Model 1 was unadjusted
b Model 2 was adjusted for age, sex, race, family poverty index ratio (PIR), and marital status
c Model 3 was adjusted for variables in Model 2 + smoking status, BMI, total cholesterol, aspartate aminotransferase (natural log transformed), alanine aminotransferase (natural log transformed), estimated glomerular filtration rate, dietary sodium, dietary energy, and dietary fat
d Data were Box-Cox transformed. MET-minutes per week were used to assess the intensity (moderate or vigorous) of physical activity
