a

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) defined as eGFR <60 mL/min/1.73m2.

b

HR adjusted for baseline gender, age, field center, maximal education throughout study, time varying healthy diet index, smoking status, alcohol intake, BMI, systolic BP, and fasting glucose, and baseline eGFR.

c

PAF=(Pd (HRadj −1))/HRadj × 100%, Where Pd is the proportion of inactive people among cases, and HRadj is the HR of CKD, comparing low to mod/high fitness, adjusted for confounding factors.

d

Low fit: bottom lowest gender-specific quintile (bottom 20%).

eGFR, estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate; HR, hazard ratio.
