From: Self-reported (IFIS) versus measured physical fitness, and their associations to cardiometabolic risk factors in early pregnancy

Figure 3

Relative differences in cardiometabolic risk score and body composition according to categories of (a) self-reported and (b) objectively measured physical fitness in early pregnancy. Measured fitness is split in percentiles indicating relative low (> P25), medium (P25-P75) and high (> P75) fitness levels. Mean and standard error bars using standardized z-scores (after log-transformation) are shown for each group and category. Overall fitness: self-reported overall fitness compared with a composite score computed as the average of the z-scores from the two different fitness tests, i.e., handgrip and 6-min walk test. CRF, cardiorespiratory fitness: self-reported CRF compared with 6-min walk test. Strength: self-reported muscular strength compared with handgrip test. BMI body mass index, FMI fat mass index, FFMI fat-free mass index. Significance level from the overall ANOVA test for each fitness type is indicated with symbols: ‘***’ p < 0.001, ‘**’ p < 0.01, ‘*’ p < 0.05, and ‘ns’, non-significant.
