  2. Note: Numbers printed in bold are statistically significant.
  3. a Result of statistical test (Mann-Whitney-U, Wilcoxon Rank-sum, or χ2 test as appropriate) for comparison with group “No dementia”.
  4. b “Inactive” was defined by < 1 h of vigorous or < 1 h light physical activity per week. “Medium or high” was defined by ≥ 2 h of vigorous and ≥ 2 h of light physical activity/week. All other amounts of physical activity were grouped into the category “Low”.
