Physical activity and risk of incident T2D stratified by metabolic syndrome status. Kaplan-Meier estimation of association between physical activity and risk of incident T2D stratified by metabolic syndrome status. A represents participants with metabolic syndrome and B represents individuals free of metabolic syndrome. Red, green, and blue lines represent for low (< 600 metablic equivalent-minutes per week), moderate (600–3000 metablic equivalent-minutes per week), and high (≥ 3000 metablic equivalent-minutes per week). Logrank P < 0.001 stands for observed differences between type 2 diabetes incidence between low, moderate and high physical activity groups were highly significant
