The dose–response association of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity with the risk of incident nonalcoholic fatty liver disease stratified by activity patterns. There was a similar inverse dose–response association of time spent in MVPA and the risk of incident NAFLD for both WW and regular activity participants across the entire range of MVPA. HR indicates hazard ratio. The solid line indicates how NAFLD incidence varies as a function of time spent in MVPA, while the dashed lines are confidence intervals. All results were adjusted for age, sex, ethnicities, recruitment center, Townsend Deprivation Index, educational attainment, household income, employment, smoking status, alcohol consumption, body mass index, and the total time and season of accelerometer wear
