Comprehensive Baseline Assessment Protocol

In the first session, participants’ anthropometric data was collected. Body mass was measured to the nearest 0.1 kg using a segmental body composition analyser (TBF-300A) (Tanita Corporation, Tokyo, Japan). Height was measured to the nearest 0.1 cm using a portable stadiometer (Seca 213) (Seca, Hamburg, Germany). Body composition was measured using a segmental body composition analyser (TBF-300A) (Tanita Corporation, Tokyo, Japan). In a fasted state, participants then completed an exercise test to volitional fatigue to measure maximal workload (Wmax). Wmax is defined as the total W of the final completed workload [15 (link)]. On a Lode cycle ergometer, participants commenced the test at 95 W which was increased by 35 W every three minutes until fatigue [15 (link)]. Heart rate (HR) was continuously recorded throughout the test. Each participant’s Wmax value was used in the subsequent cycling time trials in sessions 2–8. Following a two-hour break, participants completed a Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ) (this version was adapted from the 1995 Australian National Nutrition Survey FFQ [53 ]) to quantify dietary intake. Also, participants had their taste function assessed.

Hydration status was characterized using a Ucol chart (Human Kinetics, Champaign, IL), Usg (refractometer model REF 312, Atago Company Ltd., Tokyo, Japan), and %BM (Tanita TBF-300A, Tanita Corporation, Tokyo, Japan). Dehydration was defined as >1% BM loss from pre-practice weight, a Usg ≥ 1.020, and/or Ucol shade ≥4 [7 (link)].

Anthropometric Measurements Protocol

Weight, height, and waist circumference were measured by a member of the research team in a private room while wearing light clothing but no shoes. Body weight was measured in kilograms using the Tanita TBF-300A (Tanita Corporation) digital scale. Height was measured in centimeters using a Seca 213 portable stadiometer. BMI was calculated as weight in kilograms divided by height squared (in meters).

A Registered Nurse at UAF’s Center for Native Health Research (CANHR) performed anthropometric measurements. Height was measured to the nearest 1/8 inch. Weight in pounds and percent body fat were measured with a TANITA TBF-300A (Tanita Corporation of America Inc., Arlington Hills, Illinois). Waist circumference was measured with the Gulick II 150 cm anthropometric tape. Two measurements to the nearest 0.2 cm were obtained and the average was utilized in the analysis.

Anthropometric Measurements of Children

Anthropometric characteristics were measured in a private location at each school by trained research assistants. Height (standing, in cm) was measured with a stadiometer (capacity of 2 m, accurate to 1 mm; SECA North America, Chino, CA); weight (in kg) was measured with a portable electronic scale (Tanita TBF-300A; Tanita Corporation of America, Inc, Arlington Heights, IL). BMI percentile was calculated using the standard formula derived from measured height and weight, adjusted for age and sex.28 WC was measured with a standard anthropometric tape following the Anthropometry Procedures Manual for the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2000 for children more than 8 years old.29 Codes identifying participants’ schools were recorded on all data forms so that analyses could account for the nesting effect of children within schools.

Each woman was characterized for total body weight, height, BMI, waist and hip circumferences, and waist-to-hip ratio. The body fat mass (absolute value and fat mass percentage of total body weight) was assessed by bioelectrical impedance (Tanita TBF-300A, Tanita Europe B.V., Hoofddorp, The Netherlands).

Anthropometric Measurements in Children

Height was measured with a free-standing stadiometer (Seca, Birmingham, UK); weight and percent body fat were measured via bioelectrical impedance (Tanita TBF 300A, Arlington Heights, IL). BMI z-scores and percentiles were determined using CDC cut-points for age and sex [27 ]. Blood pressure (BP) was measured with an automated monitor with appropriate child cuffs (Omron, Schaumberg, IL), and waist circumference (WC) measures followed NHANES protocol [28 ].

Childhood Obesity Assessment Protocol

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Date of birth was self-reported and age was calculated from the measurement date. Height was measured to the nearest 0.1 cm (Leicester height measure, Chasmors Ltd., Leicester, UK). A non-segmental bio-impedance scale (Tanita, type TBF-300A, Tokyo, Japan) was used to measure weight to the nearest 0.1 kg with children dressed in light clothing. Body mass index (BMI) (kg/m2) was calculated and age-standardised BMI was derived. Obesity status was dichotomised (non-overweight vs. overweight/obese) based on sex- and age-dependent cut points [31] (link).
At baseline parent/guardians self-reported their highest educational qualification; this was used as a proxy measure of socioeconomic status. A categorical variable (parent/guardian education level) with 3 groups was created, ‘GCSE or lower’ (i.e. no educational qualification, school leaving certificate, General Certificate of Secondary Education; GCSE, or equivalent), ‘A-level or lower vocational training’ and ‘University or higher vocational training’. Children were excluded from analyses if they had missing data at baseline for age (n = 0/415), sex (n = 0/415), BMI (n = 2/415), or parent/guardian education level (n = 14/415).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
