measure Saliva sample
Study: TRAILS Mode of collection: MeasurementsAndTests Biological sample/measurement Available measurements: Population cohort T1
Clinical cohort T1Saliva was collected using a cotton swab or a collection device, such as a tube or container (passive drool).Created March 28, 2023 • Updated March 28, 2023 -
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 -
measure Tanner Scale
Study: TRAILS Mode of collection: SelfAdministeredQuestionnaire Available measurements: Population cohort T1 T2
Clinical cohort T1 T2The Tanner Scale describes, both pictorially and descriptively, the external changes that occur in the time period between the onset of puberty and the achievement of full maturity for both girls and boys. Characterizations of pubertal status are assessed by breast development in girls, genital development in boys and pubic hair growth in both. The Tanner...Created March 28, 2023 • Updated March 28, 2023 -
measure Length and weight
Study: TRAILS Mode of collection: MeasurementsAndTests Anthropometrics/Body measures Available measurements: Population cohort T1 T2 T3 T4 T5 T6 T7
Clinical cohort T1 T2 T3 T4 T5 T6Assessment of length and weight using a stadiometer and personal scale.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 -
measure Respiratory Sinus Arrhythmia (RSA)
Study: TRAILS Mode of collection: MeasurementsAndTests ECG Available measurements: Population cohort T1 T3
Clinical cohort T1 T3Assessment of respiratory sinus arrhythmia using electrocardiogram (ECG). Respiratory sinus arrhythmia is part of the autonomic nervous system and serves to optimize gas exchange between the lungs and the circulatory system. Includes respiratory sinus arrhythmia at rest, during orthostatic stress, and during the Spatial Orienting Task and Bangor Gambling...Created March 28, 2023 • Updated March 28, 2023 -
measure Baroreflex Sensitivity (BRS)
Study: TRAILS Mode of collection: MeasurementsAndTests Biological sample/measurement Available measurements: Population cohort T1 T3
Clinical cohort T1 T3Assessment of baroreflex sensitivity using electrocardiogram (ECG). The baroreflex is part of the autonomic nervous system and helps to maintain the blood pressure at an constant level. Includes baroreflex sensitivity at rest, during orthostatic stress, and during the Spatial Orienting Task and Bangor Gambling Task.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 -
measure Pre-Ejection Period (PEP)
Study: TRAILS Mode of collection: MeasurementsAndTests ECG Available measurements: Population cohort T1 T3
Clinical cohort T1 T3Assessment of pre-ejection period using impedance cardiography (ICG). Pre-ejection period is the time interval the electrical stimulation of the ventricles and the opening of the aortic valve. Includes pre-ejection period at rest, during orthostatic stress, and during the Spatial Orienting Task, Bangor Gambling Task, and Trier Social Stress Test.Created March 28, 2023 • Updated March 28, 2023 -
measure Steroid hormones
Study: TRAILS Mode of collection: MeasurementsAndTests Biological sample/measurement Available measurements: Population cohort T1 T3
Clinical cohort T1 T3Steroid hormones, for instance Testosterone, Estrogen, Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), and Cortisol, measured with traditional enzymatic tests, such as Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assays (ELISA).Created March 28, 2023 • Updated March 28, 2023
