* Joint association of sitting watching TV/videos and MVPA level with trunk fat percentage (dot plot; error bars indicate 95% CIs) and weighted percentage within each joint subgroup (bar graph): female children (A), male children (B), female adolescents (C), and male adolescents (D). Sitting watching TV/videos was derived from questionnaire by asking “Over the past 30 days, on average, about how many hours per day did [you/children’s name] sit and watch television or videos?” with options for the answer: none, less than 1 hour, 1 hour, 2 hours, 3 hours, 4 hours, or 5 hours or more. Age-specific cutoffs for MVPA were used (AC ≥1638, ≥1770, ≥1910, ≥2059, ≥2220, ≥2393, ≥2580, ≥2781, ≥3000, ≥3239, and ≥2020 for age 8-, 9-, 10-, 11-, 12-, 13-, 14-, 15-, 16-, 17-, and ≥18 y, respectively) according to the thresholds used by the National Cancer Institute. MVPA, moderate-to-vigorous physical activity; NHANES, National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey.
