Predicting model for 6MWD*
*Reference equations of six-minute walking distance (6MWD) are as follows.
Total: 6MWD (m)=105.7+2.99×height (cm); r2=0.205.
20-29 yr: 6MWD (m)=288.6-47.0×sex (male=0, female=1)+2.13×height (cm); r2=0.424.
30-39 yr: 6MWD (m)=29.2+3.41×height (cm); r2=0.239.
Male: 6MWD (m)=265.3-2.67×age (yr)+2.63×height (cm); r2=0.305.
There were no significant demographic or anthropometric variables predicting the 6MWD in the group of female and of 40-59 years.
