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 Saliva sample
Study: TRAILS Mode of collection: MeasurementsAndTests Biological sample/measurement Available measurements: Population cohort POP - T1
Clinical cohort CC - T1Saliva was collected using a cotton swab or a collection device, such as a tube or container (passive drool).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. Measurements include baroreflex sensitivity at rest, during orthostatic stress, and during the Spatial Orienting Task and Bangor Gambling Task.Created October 17, 2024 • Updated October 20, 2024 -
measure Steroid hormones - Cortisol
Study: TRAILS Mode of collection: MeasurementsAndTests Biological sample/measurement Available measurements: Population cohort POP - T1 POP - T3
Clinical cohort CC - T1 CC - T3Steroid hormones, for instance Testosterone, Estrogen, Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), and Cortisol, measured with traditional enzymatic tests, such as Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assays (ELISA).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 Heart rate
Study: TRAILS Mode of collection: MeasurementsAndTests Biological sample/measurement Available measurements: Population cohort POP - T1 POP - T3
Clinical cohort CC - T1 CC - T3Heart 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 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 Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (WISC-R)
Study: TRAILS Mode of collection: MeasurementsAndTests Behavioral/cognitive task Available measurements: Population cohort POP - T1
Clinical cohort CC - T1The Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (WISC) is an IQ test for children 6-17 years of age to determine general intelligence. It generates a full scale IQ (formerly known as an intelligence quotient or IQ score) that represents a child's general intellectual ability. The most common primary index scores are the Verbal Comprehension Index, the Visual...Created October 17, 2024 • Updated October 20, 2024 -
measure Amsterdam Neuropsychological Tasks (ANT)
Study: TRAILS Mode of collection: MeasurementsAndTests Behavioral/cognitive task Available measurements: Population cohort POP - T1 POP - T4
Clinical cohort CC - T1 CC - T4The Amsterdam Neuropsychological Tasks (ANT) are computerized executive functioning tasks. The ANTs measure a diverse range of executive functions, including attention, working memory, and inhibition.Created October 17, 2024 • Updated October 20, 2024 -

Clinical cohort CC - T1 CC - T2 CC - T3 CC - T4 CC - T5 CC - T6 CC - T7Length and weight assessment using a stadiometer and personal scale. Length and weight of partners were not measured, but self-reported.Created October 17, 2024 • Updated October 20, 2024 -
measure Pre-Ejection Period (PEP)
Study: TRAILS Mode of collection: MeasurementsAndTests ECG Available measurements: Population cohort POP - T1 POP - T3
Clinical cohort CC - T1 CC - T3The pre-ejection period (PEP) as measured through Impedance Cardiography (ICG) is the time interval between the electrical stimulation of the ventricles and the opening of the aortic valve. Variables include the pre-ejection period at rest, during orthostatic stress, and during the Spatial Orienting Task, Bangor Gambling Task, and Trier Social Stress Test.Created October 17, 2024 • Updated October 20, 2024
