Beskrivelse
The aim of this study is to investigate the associations of early life, familial, and childhood exposures with cardiorespiratory children using linear regression, in a cross-sectional study of European children, in Denmark, Estonia, and Portugal, aged 9 and 15.

This study demonstrates that no single factor, acting at any specific point in time is strongly predictive of cardiorespiratory fitness at ages 9 or 15 years. Rather a number of factors act throughout the life-course of the child to influence cardiorespiratory fitness at these ages.
