Figure Lengend Snippet: Continuous associations of ASTP and all-cause mortality in a restricted cubic spline model (3 knots), HCHS/SOL. ASTP: active-to-sedentary transition probability; HCHS/SOL: Hispanic Community Health Study/Study of Latinos; ∗Only ASTP < 0.40 was considered in the graph due to the small number of participants above this point (n = 170); Knots located at ASTP percentiles 10th (0.135), 50th (0.219), and 90th (0.311); Reference point set at the median of the first tertile (ASTP = 0.155). Model adjusted for study site, age, sex, accelerometer wear time, Hispanic/Latino background, education level, health insurance coverage, obesity, hypertension, diabetes, dyslipidemia, cardiovascular/cerebrovascular diseases, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, chronic kidney disease, peripheral artery disease, cancer, depression symptoms, diet quality, and current smoking.
Article Snippet: Daily physical activity was assessed at the baseline visit by an omnidirectional accelerometer (Actical, model 198-0200-03; Respironics Co. Inc., Bend, OR) using a waist-worn belt with the device centered over the right-side iliac crest during waking hours, except when swimming, bathing, and sleeping.
