Anaerobic performance in 5- to 7-yr-old children of low birthweight
Bibliographic record
Abstract
PURPOSE: This study was intended to determine whether anaerobic muscle performance is deficient in 5- to 7-yr-old children of extremely low birthweight (ELBW, 500-999 g) and very low birthweight (VLBW, 1000-1499 g). METHODS: Fourteen ELBW and 20 VLBW children were compared with 24 normal birthweight (NBW, >2500 g) term controls. Peak (PP) and mean (MP) muscle power were determined by the Wingate anaerobic test. Bioimpedance analysis and anthropometry were done to assess fat-free mass (FFM) and lean cross-sectional area of the thigh and calf. RESULTS: The ELBW group had significantly lower MP and PP, compared with the VLBW and, in particular, with the NBW group. This lower performance was apparent also when values were corrected for total body mass (MP) and FFM (MP and PP), but not when corrected for cross-sectional area of thigh and calf. CONCLUSION: The lower anaerobic muscle performance in ELBW children may be partly due to their smaller muscle mass, but may also reflect a low percentage of fast-twitch muscle fibers, low muscle phosphagen content, or deficiency in motor control.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
