Association between outdoor walking and risk of osteoporosis

Duration of daily outdoor walking (minutes/day) p trend
None  ≤ 30  > 30 and ≤ 60  > 60
No. of incident osteoporosis/No. of subjects 3244/16491 716/3840 570/3814 56/555
Incident rate per 100 persons 19.67 18.65 14.94 10.09
Model 1 1.00 (reference) 0.95 (0.87, 1.03) 0.80 (0.73, 0.88) 0.54 (0.41, 0.70)  < 0.001

Model 1: no adjustment

Model 2: adjusted for age, sex, body mass index, waist, educational attainment, smoking status, drinking status, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, dyslipidemia, stroke, coronary artery disease, cancer, and depression, calcium supplementation use, vitamin D supplementation use, and hormone medication use

Model 3: adjusted for Model 2 plus genetic risk score, the first 10 primary components of ancestry, and genotype measurements batches. In model 3, only 13,426 subjects were included in the analysis, because 11,274 subjects were lack of osteoporosis-genetic risk score
