The Claim
Non-coffee drinkers who engage in sedentary behavior (sitting 6 or more hours per day) have a 58% higher risk of mortality from all causes compared to coffee drinkers who sit less than 6 hours per day, suggesting a joint effect of sedentary behavior and coffee consumption on mortality risk.
What the research says
Supports is higher
Support is ahead, but a single strong opposing study can change this.
These are independent scores, not a percentage. Higher-grade studies count more, so a single strong opposing study can outweigh several weaker ones.
People who don't drink coffee and sit for more than 6 hours a day are 58% more likely to die from any cause compared to coffee drinkers who sit less. This suggests that drinking coffee might help protect against the health dangers of sitting too much.

What the research says
1 studyThe study directly tested what the claim describes - comparing non-coffee drinkers who sit a lot (6+ hours/day) with coffee drinkers who sit less. It found that non-coffee drinkers who sat a lot had 58% higher risk of dying from any cause compared to coffee drinkers who sat less, exactly matching the claim.
