Associations between physical activity measures (minutes/day) with brain volumes. Regression coefficients and 95% CI indicate the mean difference in volume per SD. Higher LPA, HPA, or lower sedentary time. Model 1, adjusted for age, sex, education level, MRI lag time, wake time, and ICV. Model 2, additionally adjusted for diabetes status. Model 3, additionally adjusted for BMI, systolic blood pressure, antihypertensive medication, total-to-HDL-cholesterol ratio, lipid-modifying medication, smoking status, alcohol use, and history of cardiovascular disease
