At the Uganda site, in addition to measured weight and height, objective health measures, including blood pressure, hand grip strength, near and distant vision, walking speed, and cognition, were collected.
Measurements and function tests: weight, blood pressure, hand-grip strength, walking test and cognitive function.
Each isolate was sprayed using an air pressure hand-sprayer on four to five replicates of each host genotype.
In the present study, a correlation between symptomatic knee OA and further work factors (piece-work, time pressure, hand-arm or whole-body vibration, manual handling of heavy tools, working in wetness, coldness, or heat) could not be found.
Measurements and function tests: weight, bio-impedance (body composition-fat and water), demi-span, waist and hip circumference, tooth count, blood pressure, hand-grip strength, walking test (timed 'up and go' test), cognitive function (mini-mental state examination and computerised assessment of memory and attention (CDR battery)), electrocardiogram, spirometry and oximetry.
Three different herbicide doses [0 (control), 70 and 140 g of active ingredient (ai) per ha (label dose: 560 g ai ha−1)] were sprayed on 2 3 leaves seedlings using a constant-pressure hand-sprayer of 1 L (Commercial formulation 284 g ai L−1, Iloxan; Hoechst-Aventis).
The vigorimeter (Martin GmbH, Tuttlingen, Germany) is a pneumatic squeeze dynamometer that measures the pressure the hand is able to apply around a rubber ball (three attempts per hand).
