Associations of Infant Subcutaneous Fat Mass with Total and Abdominal Fat Mass at School‐Age: The Generation R Study [PDF]
AbstractBackgroundSkinfold thickness enables the measurement of overall and regional subcutaneous fatness in infancy and may be associated with total and abdominal body fat in later childhood. We examined the associations of subcutaneous fat in infancy with total and abdominal fat at school‐age.MethodsIn a population‐based prospective cohort study ...

Galectin-3 levels relate in children to total body fat, abdominal fat, body fat distribution, and cardiac size [PDF]
Galectin-3 has recently been proposed as a novel biomarker for cardiovascular disease in adults. The purpose of this investigation was to assess relationships between galectin-3 levels and total body fat, abdominal fat, body fat distribution, aerobic fitness, blood pressure, left ventricular mass, left atrial size, and increase in body fat over a 2 ...

Fitness Alters the Associations of BMI and Waist Circumference with Total and Abdominal Fat [PDF]
AbstractObjective: We tested the following hypotheses in black and white men and women: 1) for a given BMI or waist circumference (WC), individuals with moderate cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) have lower amounts of total fat mass and abdominal subcutaneous and visceral fat compared with individuals with low CRF; and 2) exercise training is associated ...

BMI, total and abdominal fat distribution, and cardiovascular risk factors in school-age children [PDF]
More specific total body and abdominal fat mass measures might be stronger associated with cardiovascular risk factors in childhood, than BMI. We examined the independent associations of total and abdominal fat measures with cardiovascular risk factors in school age children.We performed a population-based cohort study among 6,523 children.

Postpubertal Development of Total and Abdominal Percentage Body Fat: An 8‐Year Longitudinal Study [PDF]
The aim of the present study was to describe postpubertal changes in total and abdominal adiposity in young men and the relation to changes in physical activity (PA). The study included 107 white men with a mean age of 17.1 ± 1.7 years at baseline. Total percentage body fat (%BF) and abdominal percentage body fat (abd%BF) were measured at baseline and ...
