Criterion Validity of Screening Tools and Field-Based Tests for Health-Related Physical Fitness in Inflammatory Bowel Disease
Four-site skinfold thickness and BIA showed good agreement with the gold standard for body fat measurement. The steep ramp test demonstrated strong correlations with the gold standard tests for cardiorespiratory fitness and quadriceps and hamstring strength, while hand-held dynamometry and the sit-to-stand test showed strong correlations with hamstring strength.
