*p < 0.05,**p < 0.01,***p < 0.001 for heterogeneity. CI = confidence interval, MVPA = moderate-to-vigorous physical activity. Analyses conducted using linear regression, adjusting for all variables in columns and in Table 1 (equivalent to multivariable model 2 in Table 2). Outcomes for regression analyses are standardised log-transformed distances.
