The 1-minute sit to stand(1mSTS) was studied in eight papers, the 6-minute step test (6MST) in seven, ‘timed up and go test’ (TUGT) in six, and the Siconolfi step test (SST) in five (70, 80, 86,…”

Introduction: Insufficient physical activity is a significant contributor to non-communicable disease amongst the global population. Insufficient physical activity is directly linked with reduced cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF). CRF is as strong a predictor of mortality as well-established risk-factors such as smoking, hypertension, dyslipidaemia, and type 2 diabetes mellitus, however, it remains the only major risk factor not routinely assessed in primary health care settings. The aim of this review was to assess the validity and reliability of existing submaximal tests of CRF which can be employed in a standard medical consultation for the estimation of CRF and physical function in adults. Methods: A systematic review of the scientific literature was undertaken to find all studies reporting the reliability and/or validity of submaximal tests of CRF and physical function. Studies published up to 12 January 2023 were included in the search of the Medline, Embase, Cinahl, SPORTdiscus, Cochrane library, Informit Health and Web of Science databases. Risk of bias was assessed using the JBI critical appraisal checklist for analytical cross-sectional studies. Data including reliability of the submaximal protocols as measured by test-retest Pearson’s r (r) or Intraclass co-efficient (ICC); and validity as measured by the correlation between the submaximal protocol results and the graded exercise test results (r) was extracted. Meta-analyses were performed to determine the overall mean r of the correlation coefficients. Results: In total 1754 studies were identified. Following screening, 143 studies including 15,760 participants were included. All clinical tests included in meta-analysis demonstrated strong reliability. The Siconolfi step test (r=0.81), Incremental shuttle walk test (r=0.768) and 1-minute sit-to-stand test (r=0.65) demonstrated strongest validity following meta-analysis. Conclusion: Based on the validity of the tests outlined, these can be used as an acceptable method of estimating VO2peak in a broad population, without the cost and access issues of formal GXT.

“…The cardiopulmonary stress test is a valid method (0.94 to 0.95) to analyze VO 2 max in older people with mild disabilities [57] and adults with lung disease [58]. While indirect calorimetry on a rolling tape is a reliable method (0.94) in apparently healthy adults [59,60], as has the ergometric tape test Bruce (0.93) in adult athletes [61], shuttle walking test (0.93) in post-stroke adults [62] and modified protocol of Balke's rolling tape with a validity of a 0.78 in older people with chronic illnesses [63].…”

This systematic review aimed to assess the available body of published peer-reviewed articles related to the effects of Olympic combat sports (OCS) on cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) in the non-athlete population. The methodological quality and certainty of evidence were evaluated using PRISMA, TESTEX, RoB, and GRADE scales. The protocol was registered in PROSPERO (code: CRD42023391433). From 4133 records, six randomized controlled trials were included, involving 855 non-athletes (mean age = 27.2 years old). The TESTEX scale reported all studies with a ≥ 60% (moderate-high quality) score. The GRADE scale indicated moderate to low certainty of evidence. It was only possible to perform a meta-analysis on direct methods to maximum oxygen consumption (VO2max). The main results indicated significant differences in favor of OCS compared to active/passive controls in VO2max (SMD = 4.61; 95%CI = 1.46 to 7.76; I2 = 99%; p = 0.004), while the individual results of the studies reported significant improvements in favor of the OCS on the indirect methods of the CRF. OCS improved CRF in a healthy non-athlete population of different ages, specifically showing a significant improvement in VO2max with direct tests, such as cardiopulmonary tests. However, moderate to low certainty of evidence is reported, so no definitive recommendations can be established.
