Establishing modified Canadian Aerobic Fitness Test (mCAFT) cut-points to detect clustered cardiometabolic risk among Canadian children and youth aged 9 to 17 years.

The article discusses a study that aimed to establish Canadian Aerobic Fitness Test (mCAFT) cut-points to identify potential clustered cardiometabolic risk among children aged 9 to 13 years and youth aged 14 to 17 years. Cardiorespiratory fitness was measured using mCAFT for estimating peak oxygen consumption. Results suggest that the mCAFT cut-points can help identify children and youth at risk of poor cardiometabolic health in public health surveillance, clinical and school-based settings.
