measure Bio-electrical impedance
Study: TRAILS Mode of collection: MeasurementsAndTests Anthropometrics/Body measures Available measurements: Population cohort T3
Clinical cohort T3Assessment of body fat using bio-electrical impedance. Voltage measurements of weak electric currents that are send 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 March 28, 2023 • Updated March 28, 2023 -
measure Waist and hip circumference
Study: TRAILS Mode of collection: MeasurementsAndTests Anthropometrics/Body measures Available measurements: Population cohort T3 T4 T5
Clinical cohort T3 T4 T5Assessment of waist and hip circumference using a tape measure.Created March 28, 2023 • Updated March 28, 2023 -
measure Skinfold thickness
Study: TRAILS Mode of collection: MeasurementsAndTests Biological sample/measurement Available measurements: Population cohort T1 T3 T4
Clinical cohort T1 T3 T4Assessment of body fat. Skinfold thickness 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 March 28, 2023 • Updated March 28, 2023
