  • Unadjusted cumulative incidence of mortality and MI by age groups at median follow-up of 10.4 and 5.5 years, respectively, with stratification by METS categories. 95% CIs shown in parentheses. p Value shows the variance across METS categories within each age group.

  • METS, metabolic equivalents; MI, myocardial infarction.
