Notes: p-values <0.05 are in bold font. Beta (β) is the estimated regression coefficient, CI is the 95% confidence interval. Brain volumes are included in the model as mL. The analysis is corrected for age at baseline, sex and education. Brain volumes were corrected for intracranial volume (ICV) using the residual method.

Abbreviation: CRF, cardiorespiratory fitness measured as VO2peak.
