Figure 3. Relationship between CAC score and minutes per week of moderate‐intensity exercise (A) and high exercise intensity (B) as continuous variables.

As minutes per week increased, the CAC score remained relatively constant for moderate‐intensity exercise (A) with a β=0.108 and P=0.78 with a slight, but not significant, decrease for high‐intensity exercise (B) with a β=−0.72 and P=0.42. CAC indicates coronary artery calcium score; MET, metabolic equivalents of task.
