CI indicates confidence interval; HR, hazard ratio; MI, myocardial infarction; PAs, physical activities.

a

Adjusted mutually for the other 3 PAs.

b

Adjusted for sex, smoking (status, intensity, and years smoked), environmental tobacco smoke, education, PAs at work, diet (fruit, vegetable, fat, and fish intake), alcohol consumption, marital status, and mutually for the other 3 PAs.
