Data are shown as the hazard ratio [95% confidence interval].

aP value for the linear trend was calculated by using the Cox proportional hazards regression and assigning each category of physical activity as a continuous variable.

bModel 1 was adjusted for baseline estimated glomerular filtration rate (60 to 89 or ≥ 90 mL/min/1.73 m2), age (continuous), and sex.

cModel 2 was further adjusted for baseline smoking status (never, former, or current), alcohol consumption (0, > 0 to < 2, or ≥ 2go/day), occupation (engineering, production, office and administration, or others), job position (high or low), overtime work (< 45, 45 to < 60, 60 to < 80, 80 to < 100, or ≥ 100 h), shift work (yes or no), commuting mode (walking, bicycling, train/bus, or car/motorbike), sleep duration (< 5, 5 to < 6, 6 to < 7, or ≥ 7 h per day), and the other types of physical activity (i.e., leisure-time physical activity [0, > 0 to < 7.5, 7.5 to < 16.5, or ≥ 16.5 MET-h/week], occupational physical activity [sedentary, standing or walking, and fairly physically activity], or walking for commuting to and from work [< 20 min, 20 to < 40 min, or ≥ 40 min]).

dModel 3 was further adjusted for potential mediators, including baseline hypertension, diabetes, history of cardiovascular disease, dyslipidemia, hyperuricemia, and body mass index (< 18.5, 18.5 to < 25.0, 25.0 to < 30.0, or ≥ 30.0 kg/m2). eP < 0.05 (2-tailed).
