Aerobic moderate-and-vigorous physical activity and risk of type 2 diabetes in women from the Nurses' Health Study (2000–2008) and Nurses' Health Study II (2001–2009).

Data are relative risks (95% CI). Model 1 was adjusted for age (months), smoking (never, past, or current), alcohol consumption (0, 1–5, >5 g/d), coffee intake (0, 5 cups/day), race (white, non-white), family history of diabetes, post menopausal hormone use (never, past, current), intake of total energy, trans fat, polyunsaturated fat to saturated fat ratio, cereal fiber, wholegrain, and glycemic load (all dietary factors in quintiles), oral contraceptive use (only NHSII: never, past, current), menopausal status (only NHSII: pre, post), resistance exercise (0, 1–29, 30–59, 60–150, >150 min/week) and lower intensity muscular conditioning exercises (0, 1–29, 30–59, 60–150, >150 min/week). Model 2 was additionally adjusted for BMI (continues). Aerobic MVPA consists of brisk walking, jogging, running, bicycling, tennis, swimming, other aerobic exercise, other vigorous exercise, and stair climbing.Combined using fixed effect pooling of estimates from multivariable adjusted models.
