Table 1:
Physical activity - categorical
|
Notes |
This table represents a variety of exposure definitions for leisure-time physical activity in relation to AD risk. Generally, the reference category corresponds to the least amount of physical activity; however, in the Abbott 2004 paper the reference category is represented by those with the highest number of miles walked per day.
