Assessment of body composition in athletes: A narrative review of available methods with special reference to quantitative and qualitative bioimpedance analysis
(2021-05-01)
Body composition is acknowledged as a determinant of athletic health and performance. Its assessment is crucial in evaluating the efficiency of a diet or aspects related to the nutritional status of the athlete. Despite ...
Body composition assessment of undernourished older subjects by dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry and bioelectric impedance analysis
(SPRINGER FRANCE, 2011)
The prevention and treatment of diseases related to changes in body composition require accurate methods for the measurement of body composition. However, few studies have dealt specifically with the assessment of body ...
PREDICTION OF FAT-FREE MASS BY BIOELECTRICAL IMPEDANCE ANALYSIS IN OLDER ADULTS FROM DEVELOPING COUNTRIES: A CROSS-VALIDATION STUDY USING THE DEUTERIUM DILUTION METHOD
(SPRINGER FRANCE, 2010)
Objective: Several limitations of published bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) equations have been reported. The aims were to develop in a multiethnic, elderly population a new prediction equation and cross-validate ...
Agreement Between Body Composition Assessed by Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis and Doubly Labeled Water in Obese Women Submitted to Bariatric Surgery: Body Composition, BIA, and DLW
(2019-01-15)
Introduction: Bariatric surgery has a significant influence on body composition (BC), which should be monitored. However, there is a need to recommend low-cost practical methods, with good estimation of BC for class III ...
Comparison of skinfold thicknesses and bioelectrical impedance analysis with dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry for the assessment of body fat in patients on long-term haemodialysis therapy
(Oxford Univ Press, 2003-01-01)
Background. Body composition assessment in patients with chronic renal failure is of paramount importance since studies have demonstrated the association of protein-energy malnutrition with an increased morbidity and ...
Desempenho da bioimpedância elétrica segmentar na identificação de risco de pré-eclâmpsia
(Universidade Federal de São Paulo, 2021-07-26)
RESUMO
Introdução: A pré-eclâmpsia (PE) acomete 2-8% das gestações e é uma das
principais causas de morbidade e mortalidade materna em todo o mundo.
Métodos para a identificação precoce das gestantes com maior risco ...
Predictive equation for assessing appendicular lean soft tissue mass using bioelectric impedance analysis in older adults: Effect of body fat distribution
(2021-07-15)
Background: Low muscle mass is associated with sarcopenia and increased mortality. Muscle mass, especially that of the limbs, is commonly estimated by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) or bioimpedance analysis (BIA). ...
New body fat prediction equations for severely obese patients
(CHURCHILL LIVINGSTONE, 2008)
Background & aims: Severe obesity imposes physical limitations to body composition assessment. Our aim was to compare body fat (BF) estimations of severely obese patients obtained by bioelectrical impedance (BIA) and air ...
