a

CHD = coronary heart disease; CRF = cardiorespiratory fitness; FRS = Framingham Risk Score; HR = hazard ratio.

b

Model 2 investigates the association between CRF (categorized into low, moderate, and high) and CHD events while controlling for moderate or high 10-y CHD risk and baseline examination year.

c

Low or moderate or high 10-y CHD risk is a comparative risk calculated from the summation of FRS points. Moderate or high risk is defined as a sum of >5 points.
