measure COSMED
Study: Netherlands Twin Register Mode of collection: MeasurementsAndTests Biological sample/measurement Available measurements: Young Netherlands Twin Register YE_FITNSSCOSMED consists of recorded breath-by-breath oxygen uptake (VO2) and carbon dioxide production (VCO2) during exercise measured with a telemetric gas exchange system (Cosmed K4b2, Cosmed Benelux, Nieuwegein, The Netherlands).Created October 17, 2024 • Updated October 20, 2024 -
measure Borg’s Rating of Perceived Exertion (RPE)
Study: Netherlands Twin Register Mode of collection: SelfAdministeredQuestionnaire Available measurements: Young Netherlands Twin Register YE_FITNSSThe Borg’s Rating of Perceived Exertion (RPE) measures the subjective perception of exercise intensity. The RPE comprises a 15-point scale ranging from 6 to 20, with marks at 7 (“very, very light”), 9 (“very light”), 11 (“fairly light”), 13 (“somewhat hard”), 15 (“hard”), 17 (“very hard”) and 19 (“very, very hard”).Created October 17, 2024 • Updated October 20, 2024 -
measure Shuttle run test
Study: TRAILS Mode of collection: MeasurementsAndTests Biological sample/measurement Available measurements: Population cohort POP - T3
Clinical cohort CC - T3The shuttle run test is a validated assessment of physcial fitness. In the task, participants have to continuously run between two lines that are twenty meters apart and reach the lines before a recorded beep. Measurements include performance, heart rate, heart rate variability, and lung capacity.Created October 17, 2024 • Updated October 20, 2024 -
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
