The coefficient represents the difference in BP change per year between the category of interest and the reference category. Physical activity: low‐intensity activity (activity with <3 metabolic equivalents [MET] h/wk; moderate activity (activity with 3 to <6 MET h/wk); vigorous activity (activity with ≥6 METS h/wk).
