Baseline correlations between MNi frequency and anthropometry, functional fitness, and blood parameters
MNi
The total number of MNi correlated significantly for the whole study population at baseline with anthropometric parameters (BMI: r = 0.311, p = 0.002, body fat (%): r = 0.433, p < 0.001, waist to hip ratio: r = −0.205, p = 0.044). There were also significant correlations with functional parameters. For instance, the arm curl test and the chair-stand test showed significant negative correlations and the 6-min walk test a positive correlation with the MNi frequency (Correlations between MNi and health related biomarker at baseline.**p < 0.01; *p < 0.05.
