Extended Data Fig. 4. Dose-response association of categorised Vigorous Intermittent Lifestyle Physical Activity (VILPA) duration quarters with all-cause mortality (n = 25,241).

Extended Data Fig. 4

Duration of VILPA bout up to 1 minute (A); Duration of VILPA bouts up to 2 minutes (B); Frequency of length-standardized VILPA bouts up to 1 minute (C); and Frequency of length-standardized VILPA bouts up to 2 minutes (D). Participants with no VILPA were the reference category. The remaining categories are based on VILPA tertiles. Analyses adjusted for age, sex, duration of light intensity physical activity, duration of moderate intensity physical activity, smoking history, alcohol consumption, accelerometer estimated sleep duration, fruit and vegetable consumption, education, self-reported parental history of cardiovascular disease and cancer, and self-reported medication use (cholesterol, blood pressure, and diabetes), and prevalent cancer and CVD. All analyses were additionally adjusted for vigorous physical activity duration/bouts lasting more than one/two minutes, as appropriate. See Online Methods for further details on the statistical methodology. Sample size = 25,241; events = 868. Error bars represent 95% CI.
