EKELUND, U., M. SJÖSTRÖM, A. YNGVE, E. POORTVLIET, NILSSON, K. FROBERG, N. WEDDERKOPP, and WESTERTERP. Physical activity assessed by monitor doubly labeled water in children. Med. Sci. Sports Exerc., Vol. 33, No. 2, pp. 275–281, 2001. Purpose: To validate the Computer Science Application’s (CSA) for assessment of total amount physical during two school-weeks 9-yr-old children to develop equations predict energy expenditure (TEE) (AEE) from counts anthropometric variables. Methods: A 26 (15...
The aim was to investigate (a) the effect of five different time sampling intervals (epoch settings) on intensity levels when assessing physical activity with an accelerometer (CSA, WAM 7164), and (b) whether placement monitor (on hip back) would affect outcome. Sixteen children (aged 7 yrs) were monitored for four consecutive days. A significant main epoch found spent at very high ( p < .01) activities. No difference between two placements regarding total amount (cnts • min −1 ) or...

Purpose To examine effect monitor placement (hip vs back) activity setting (treadmill track) output from Manufacturing Technology Inc. (MTI), (model WAM 7164). Methods: In a laboratory study, 28 subjects (14 men, 14 women) walked at normal pace, fast jogged comfortable pace an indoor track. These...
To examine differences in levels of physical activity (PA), time spent at moderate‐to‐vigorous intensity PA (MVPA) and sedentary between within days children from four European countries, 1954 9 – 15‐year‐olds were included. was measured during 2 weekdays weekend using the manufacturing technology‐incorporated (MTI) accelerometer. Average count per minute, sedentary, MVPA proportion accumulating ≥60 min calculated. Data compared school leisure‐time. Although not entirely consistent across...
Identifying leisure time activities performed before and after school that influence in physical activity (PA) and/or spent sedentary can provide useful information when designing interventions aimed to promote an active lifestyle young people. The purpose of this study was examine associations between mode transportation school, outdoor play participation exercise clubs, TV viewing with objectively assessed PA behaviour children. A total 1327 nine- 15-year-old children from three European...
The delivery of efficient nonpharmacological treatment to prevent the loss muscle mass in older adults is a major challenge, and information on combined effects training diet particularly important. Here we aimed evaluate 24 wk resistance with healthy dietary approach (n-6/n-3 ratio < 2) population physically active women (65-70 years). three-armed randomized controlled trial included + group (RT-HD), (RT), controls (CON). All subjects study were had low levels serum inflammatory markers....
Objective To evaluate the role of positive surgical margin (PSM) size/focality and location in relation to risk biochemical recurrence (BCR) after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP). Patients Methods Clinicopathological data were collected from 904 patients who underwent RARP at a single European institution 2002 2006. PSM status was defined as cancer cells inked margin, stratified by location. The outcome variable BCR, postoperative PSA level ≥0.2 ng/mL. We modelled...
While physical activity (PA) may counteract age‐related functional decline and loss of independence at old age, to what extent function is influenced by past or present PA behaviors currently unclear. Therefore, the aim study was examine relationships between both components in older women. A score based on 6‐minute walk test, squat jump, single‐leg‐stance balance aggregated 60 women (65‐70 years). Present behavior assessed accelerometry (Actigraph) leisure‐time self‐reported, where times...
Introduction Whether amount of time spent in sedentary activities influences on clustered metabolic risk elderly, and to what extent such an influence is independent physical activity behavior, remain unclear. Therefore, the aim study was examine cross-sectional associations objectively assessed behavior outcomes a sample elderly community-dwelling women. Methods Metabolic including waist circumference, systolic diastolic blood pressures, fasting levels plasma glucose, HDL-cholesterol...
The study aimed to examine sex-specific associations between objectively measured sedentary patterns and pro- anti-inflammatory biomarkers in older adults when considering the moderating impact of physical activity (PA). Accelerometer-based monitoring PA was conducted a population men ( n = 83; age: 67.4 ± 1.5; height: 178.7 6.6 cm; weight: 80.9 10.6 kg) women 146; 1.6; 164.2 6.1 64.6 10.1 aged 65–70. Blood samples were collected for assessment inflammatory C-reactive protein (CRP),...
Study Type – Harm (case series) Level of Evidence 4 What’s known on the subject? and What does study add? Several factors, including age, body mass index (BMI), prostate size previous transurethral resection prostate, have been suggested to play a part in determining risk urinary incontinence after radical prostatectomy. Results relating importance each factor conflicting, so we need more data be able identify relevant factors. In this consecutive series, with information from 1179 patients...
To examine the influence of reallocating time spent at different objectively measured physical activity (PA) behaviors on markers systemic inflammation in older women with levels metabolic risk.Accelerometer-based monitoring PA was conducted a population community-dwelling (n = 111; age, 65-70 yr) for determination daily sedentary time, light (LPA) and moderate-to-vigorous (MVPA). Blood samples were collected assessment inflammatory C-reactive protein (CRP), fibrinogen, adiponectin....
While an adequate protein intake is important for the maintenance of muscle mass during ageing, amount and source necessary optimal prevention sarcopenia remains to be determined. The present study aimed investigate influence dietary proteins on risk in a cohort 65–79-year-old European adults within frame NU-AGE study. A total 986 participants were included analysis. Skeletal index (SMI), assessed by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA), handgrip strength (HG) employed create continuous...
Sarcopenia is characterised by a progressive loss of skeletal muscle mass and physical function as well related metabolic disturbances. While fibre-rich diets can influence health outcomes, the impact on yet to be determined, moderating effects activity (PA) need considered. The aim present study was examine links between fibre intake, in cohort older adults from NU-AGE study. In 981 (71 ± 4 years, 58% female), assessed using short-physical performance battery test handgrip strength....
Several prediction equations developed to convert body movement measured by accelerometry into energy expenditure have been published. The aim of this study was examine the degree agreement between three different equations, when applied data on physical activity in a large sample children. We examined 1321 children (663 boys, 658 girls; mean age 9.6±0.4 years) from four countries. Physical MTI accelerometer. One equation, derived doubly labeled water (DLW) measurements, compared with one...
What's known on the subject? and What does study add? Robotic‐assisted radical cystectomy pelvic lymphadenectomy have previously been described with an extracorporeal urinary diversion.
