Data are means ± SE. The range of possible scores for the physical activity index is 3–15; the lowest value corresponds to the level of physical activity of a clerical worker who plays a light sport (energy expended is <0.76 MJ/h, e.g., bowling) and who participates in sedentary activities during leisure time. The highest value corresponds to the level of physical activity of a person who is very physically active at work (e.g., a construction worker), who plays heavy sports (energy expended is at least 1.76 MJ/h, e.g., boxing, basketball, football, or rugby), and who is very physically active during leisure time (e.g., walking >1 h/day or biking >45 min/day).
Indicates P < 0.05 vs. normal subjects (Student’s unpaired t test and Bonferroni correction).
