measure Heart beat perception
Study: Netherlands Twin Register Mode of collection: MeasurementsAndTests Behavioral/cognitive task Available measurements: Young Netherlands Twin Register YE_ATTEF3In Heart beat perception, participants were asked to judge their own heart rate by introspective visceral awareness, i.e. without palpitating the arterial pulse signal at wrist or neck. They judged their mean heart rate per minute over three short periods (25, 35 and 45 seconds).Created October 17, 2024 • Updated October 20, 2024 -
measure Heart rate
Study: Netherlands Twin Register Mode of collection: MeasurementsAndTests Biological sample/measurement Available measurements: Young Netherlands Twin Register YC_BS3 YE_FITNSS YE_ATTEF3 YE_COG18Heart rate is the number of times a heart beats per minute and normally ranges between 60 and 100 times for adults. Heart rate variability is the time fluctuation between heart beats.Created October 17, 2024 • Updated October 20, 2024 -
measure Blood pressure
Study: Netherlands Twin Register Mode of collection: MeasurementsAndTests Biological sample/measurement Available measurements: Young Netherlands Twin Register YC_BS3 YE_FITNSS YE_ATTEF3 YE_COG18Blood pressure is the force of blood pushing against the walls of arteries as the heart pumps blood around the body. Systolic pressure is the pressure when the heart contracts and pushes blood out and diastolic pressure is the pressure when the heart relaxes and fills with blood. In adults, the systolic pressure normally ranges between 80 and 120 and the...Created October 17, 2024 • Updated October 20, 2024 -
measure Electrocardiography (ECG)
Study: Generation R Mode of collection: MeasurementsAndTests ECG Available measurements: Generation R 17-18 yearsElectrocardiography (ECG) is a medical diagnostic technique that records the electrical activity of the heart over time, enabling the assessment of its rhythm, rate, and overall cardiovascular health.Created October 17, 2024 • Updated October 20, 2024 -
measure Heart ultrasound
Study: Generation R Mode of collection: MeasurementsAndTests Echo Available measurements: Generation R 5-6 yearsHeart ultrasound, also known as echocardiography, is a non-invasive medical imaging technique that uses sound waves to create real-time images of the heart's structures, chambers, valves, and blood flow, providing information about its functioning and potential abnormalities.Created October 17, 2024 • Updated October 20, 2024 -
measure Cardiac measurements - Magnetic Resonance Imaging
Study: Generation R Mode of collection: MeasurementsAndTests MRI Available measurements: Generation R 9-10 yearsMagnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scans were made to assess cardiac structure, diastolic volume, systolic volume, functional cardiac measurements, ejection fraction, stroke volume and aortic diameter.Created October 17, 2024 • Updated October 20, 2024 -

measure Respiratory Sinus Arrhythmia (RSA)
Study: TRAILS Mode of collection: MeasurementsAndTests ECG Available measurements: Population cohort POP - T1 POP - T3
Clinical cohort CC - T1 CC - T3Respiratory sinus arrhythmia is part of the autonomic nervous system and serves to optimize gas exchange between the lungs and the circulatory system. It was measured through an electrocardiogram (ECG) and included respiratory sinus arrhythmia at rest, during orthostatic stress, and during the Spatial Orienting Task and Bangor Gambling Task.Created October 17, 2024 • Updated October 20, 2024 -
measure Baroreflex Sensitivity (BRS)
Study: TRAILS Mode of collection: MeasurementsAndTests Biological sample/measurement Available measurements: Population cohort POP - T1 POP - T3
Clinical cohort CC - T1 CC - T3Baroreflex Sensitivity (BRS) assessment using an electrocardiogram (ECG). The baroreflex is part of the autonomic nervous system and helps to maintain the blood pressure at a constant level.

measure Lung capacity
Study: TRAILS Mode of collection: MeasurementsAndTests Biological sample/measurement Available measurements: Population cohort POP - T3
Clinical cohort CC - T3The peak flow test was used to measure lung capacity as an indication of asthma. The lung capacity is the amount of air that can be expelled from the lungs after a maximum inhalation. The test included lung capacity measured at rest and after the shuttle run test.Created October 17, 2024 • Updated October 20, 2024 -
