Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
1.Oxygenated hemoglobin (O2Hb) 2.Deoxygenated hemoglobin (HHb) 3.Total hemoglobin (tHb) 4.Hemoglobin difference (HbDiff) 5.Tissue Saturation Index (TSI) The device used is the PortaMon near-infrared spectroscopy device by Artinis (continuous wave near-infrared spectroscopy using the modified Lambert-Beer law)

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1.Age 2. Sex 3. BMI 4. Nicotine abuse 5. Alcohol abuse 6. Diabetes 7. Hand grip strength Data collection using a handgrip dynamometer (Kern MAP 130K1, Kern, Balingen, Germany). In addition, participants are weighed using personal scales and their height is measured. Furthermore, participants are interviewed using a structured questionnaire regarding the presence of diabetes mellitus (with or without insulin therapy), nicotine abuse (measured in pack-years), and alcohol consumption (measured in g/week).
