Table 2 Bivariate correlations between accelerometer assessed sedentary behaviour patterns, light physical activity and MVPA with 10-year CVD risk, individual CVD risk factors and functional disability

From: Sedentary behaviour is associated with increased long-term cardiovascular risk in patients with rheumatoid arthritis independently of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity
