IQI, interquartile intervals (25th and 75th percentiles). MVPA, moderate-to-vigorous physical activity. Low sedentary, ≤648 min/day. High MVPA, ≥30 min/day. High sedentary, >648 min/day. Low MVPA, <30 min/day. High-risk physical activity profile; high sedentary/low MVPA. Non-wear time; time where at least one of the accelerometers has been detached from the body.
