Chronotype was dichotomized into “more morning” (Morning type) and “more evening” (Evening type) based on the median ME score of the total population (<53, more evening; ≥53, more morning).

Abbreviation: IPAQ, International Physical Activity Questionnaire.

Adjusted by sex, age, clinic site and number study.

*Values were logarithmically transformed.

**P-value was calculated using chi-square test.

P-value refers to association between morning and evening chronotype and exposures of interest. P-trend refers to the continuous association between the ME score and exposures of interest.
