measure Heart rate
Study: TRAILS Mode of collection: MeasurementsAndTests Biological sample/measurement Available measurements: Population cohort T1 T3
Clinical cohort T1 T3Assessment of heart rate and heart rate variability. Heart 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 March 28, 2023 • Updated March 28, 2023 -

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 -

measure Blood pressure
Study: TRAILS Mode of collection: MeasurementsAndTests Biological sample/measurement Available measurements: Population cohort T1 T3
Clinical cohort T1 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 March 28, 2023 • Updated March 28, 2023 -
