    Dose–response association between MVPA and FD. (A–C) shows the association between MVPA and FD among all participants (A) , non-frail older adults (B) , and frail older adults (C) , modeled by <t>restricted</t> <t>cubic</t> <t>splines.</t> MVPA and ST were mutually adjusted, as were baseline age, sex, district, living situation, marital status, education, equivalent income, body mass index, hypertension, dyslipidemia, heart disease, stroke, diabetes mellitus, cancer, alcohol drinking status, smoking status, lower back pain, knee pain, and frailty [in the stratified analyses (B,C) , frailty was excluded from covariates]. The reference value for MVPA was 0 METs■min/week. Solid lines indicate hazard ratios for FD. Dashed lines indicate 95% confidence intervals. FD = functional disability; METs = metabolic equivalent; MVPA = moderate-to-vigorous physical activity; ST = sedentary time.
