Leg_strength#
Wii balance board and stationary isometric dynamometer measurements of leg force of adults in Denmark.
The full, unmodified data set is available as leg_strength_full. From the authors: “Portable, low-cost, objective and reproducible assessment of muscle strength in the lower limbs is important as it allows clinicians to precisly track progression of patients undergoing rehabilitation. The purpose of the study was to evaluate (1) reproducibility and (2) concurrent validity of the WBB for measuring isometric muscle strength in the lower limb.”
Initialization#
library(fosdata)
data <- fosdata::leg_strengthAccessing fields#
data <- fosdata::leg_strength
mean_sid <- data$mean_sid # Just a random field in the datasetInteractive R Sample#
You can use the R editor below to interactively explore the dataset and generate plots. This contains a fully self-contained R environment with fosdata, ggplot2, and dplyr loaded.
LLM instructions#
If using an LLM, you can copy-paste the following instructions to accompany your prompt to inform the model of the fields and their types in the dataset.
