Coefficients represent the factor by which the measure of insulin sensitivity is multiplied by (95% Confidence Interval) for a 30 minute difference in sedentary time or MVPA

Model 1 adjusted for age, sex, ethnicity, smoking status, statin medication status, beta-blocker status and accelerometer wear time

Model 2 adjusted for above variables plus MVPA (for the sedentary time model) or sedentary time (for the MVPA model)

Model 3 adjusted for the above plus BMI
