Habitual physical activity in children and adolescents with cystic fibrosis

Article Abstract:

This article examines physical activity and aerobic fitness levels in cystic fibrosis patients with good pulmonary function. Results of an activity questionnaire and an exercise test indicate that young patients with cystic fibrosis participate in fewer vigorous physical activities than their healthy peers and have lower levels of aerobic fitness.

Use of self-assessed fitness and exercise parameters to predict objective fitness

Article Abstract:

A study was conducted to examine the effectiveness of self-assessed fitness and exercise in predicting objectively measured physical fitness. Multivariate modeling found that several measures of self-assessed fitness and exercise were all associated with the objective score.
