measure Waist and hip circumference
Study: TRAILS Mode of collection: MeasurementsAndTests Anthropometrics/Body measures Available measurements: Population cohort POP - T3 POP - T4 POP - T5
Clinical cohort CC - T3 CC - T4 CC - T5Waist and hip circumference were assessed using a tape measure.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 Self-Perception Profile for Children (SPPC)
Study: TRAILS Mode of collection: SelfAdministeredQuestionnaire Available measurements: Population cohort POP - T1
Clinical cohort CC - T1The Self-Perception Profile for Children (SPPC) is a validated assessment of self-perception and self-esteem. Participants are asked to indicate how they feel about their learning skills, friendships, sports achievements, appearance, behavior, and life in general.Created October 17, 2024 • Updated October 20, 2024 -
measure Blood pressure
Study: TRAILS Mode of collection: MeasurementsAndTests Biological sample/measurement Available measurements: Population cohort POP - T1 POP - T3
Clinical cohort CC - T1 CC - T3Blood 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 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 -
measure Skinfold thickness
Study: TRAILS Mode of collection: MeasurementsAndTests Biological sample/measurement Available measurements: Population cohort POP - T1 POP - T3 POP - T4
Clinical cohort CC - T1 CC - T3 CC - T4Skinfold thickness is an assessment of body fat which can noninvasively and reliably be measured at various sites of the body using a skinfold caliper. Based on measurements at multiple sites of the body, the total body fat and contribution of fat to the body mass can be estimated.Created October 17, 2024 • Updated October 20, 2024 -
measure Bio-electrical impedance
Study: TRAILS Mode of collection: MeasurementsAndTests Anthropometrics/Body measures Available measurements: Population cohort POP - T3
Clinical cohort CC - T3Bio-electrical impedance is an assessment of body fat. Voltage measurements of weak electric currents that are sent through the body are used to estimate total body water (as a proxy for muscle mass which contains a lot of water) and, by difference with body weight, body fat (which hardly contains water).Created October 17, 2024 • Updated October 20, 2024
