Spirometric indices and grip strength.
Basic Model. Corrected only for age, height, lean body mass, nutritional intervention, and study center (Munich/Wesel).

Handgrip strength is positively associated with lung volume in both male and female adolescents in different stages of puberty.
Table 3.
Spirometric indices and grip strength, sensitivity analyses.
All models corrected for age, height, lean body mass, nutritional intervention and study center (Munich/Wesel) as in Basic Model (Table 2).
Table 4.
Spirometric indices and grip strength, Z-scores.
Corrected for lean body mass, nutritional intervention and study center (Munich/Wesel) as in Basic Model (Table 2.) Age and height are already corrected for in one or both Z-scores.
