Journal ArticleDOI

Radiographic Evaluation of the Potential Lung Volume Reduction Surgery Candidate

TL;DR: It is consistently demonstrated that patients with upper lobe predominant or heterogeneous emphysema are most likely to benefit from lung volume reduction surgery (LVRS).
Journal ArticleDOI

Can't play, won't play: longitudinal changes in perceived barriers to participation in sports clubs across the child–adolescent transition

TL;DR: Perceived barriers to sports participation change rapidly in childhood and adolescence and future interventions aiming to increase sports participation in children and adolescents should target specific age groups, consider the rapid changes which occur in adolescence, and aim to address prominent barriers from across the socioecological model.
Journal ArticleDOI

Validation of dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry and foot-foot impedance against deuterium dilution measures of fatness in children

TL;DR: Errors in estimation of body fatness by dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry and foot-foot bio-electrical impedance can be very large, and the direction of error can differ between the sexes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Objectively measured habitual physical activity in a highly obesogenic environment.

TL;DR: The North-East of England is a recognized 'hot spot' for paediatric obesity and the present study shows that low levels of habitual physical activity are typical.
Journal ArticleDOI

An investigation into the minimum accelerometry wear time for reliable estimates of habitual physical activity and definition of a standard measurement day in pre-school children.

TL;DR: It is indicated that 3 d of accelerometry monitoring, regardless of whether it includes a weekend day, for at least 7 h d(-1) offers sufficient reliability to characterise total physical activity and sedentary behaviour of pre-school children.
