1.

Relative risk estimated from modified Poisson regression

2.

Diabetes defined as fasting glucose≥7 mmol/l, 2 hour glucose tolerance test ≥ 11.1 mmol/l or HbA1c≥6.5% (48 mmol/mol IFCC (N=59 men, 88 women)

3.

Based on those whose diabetes status at Years 25 or 30 could be ascertained (N=2000)

4.

Adjusted for race, age, education, and Year 20 fasting glucose

5.

Additionally adjusted for BMI

6.

Three different PA exposure variables examined for each model: a) MVPA-SR only; b) MVPA-Acc only; and c) both MVPA-SR and MVPA-Acc, adjusted for each other
