Average weekly daily physical activity was significantly associated with the maximum activity and adjusted activity scores of the human activity profile in unadjusted analyses but not when the analyses were adjusted for age and gender or age, gender, and diabetes. Interestingly, the maximum activity scores and the adjusted activity human activity profile scores each strongly correlated with 6-MWT and sit-to-stand and stair-climbing tests in both unadjusted and the age, gender, and diabetes adjusted analyses (Table 4, Figs. 3 and 4).
