Comparison of Two DXA Systems, Hologic Horizon W and GE Lunar Prodigy, for Assessing Body Composition in Healthy Korean Adults [PDF]

Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2021
Background Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is the most widely used method for evaluating muscle masses. The aim of this study was to investigate the agreement between muscle mass values assessed by two different DXA systems.

Effects of Nandrolone Decanoate on Muscle Strength, Body Composition and Bone Density: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. [PDF]

J Cachexia Sarcopenia Muscle
ABSTRACT Background Despite ongoing interest in anabolic therapies for sarcopenia and cachexia, pharmacological interventions are being developed to counteract age‐ and condition‐related losses of muscle mass and strength. This systematic review and meta‐analysis evaluated the effect of nandrolone decanoate on lean soft tissue (LST), fat mass, handgrip

Influence of refractive index matching on the photon diffuse reflectance [PDF]

, 2002
Photon migration in a randomly inhomogeneous, highly scattering and absorbing semi-infinitemediumwith a plane boundary is considered by aMonte Carlo (MC) technique. The employed MC technique combines the statistical weight scheme and real photon paths

Reference Methods for Measuring Skeletal Muscle Mass: A Critical Perspective. [PDF]

J Cachexia Sarcopenia Muscle
ABSTRACT Skeletal muscle (SM) is an integral organ component in the pathophysiology of many acute and chronic diseases. But is there a ‘gold’ standard or accepted reference method for quantifying the amount and composition of human SM mass? Exploring that question led us to recognize the existence of a SM measurement paradigm that divides methods into ...

Correlation between body composition data obtained by DXA and skinfold predictive protocols in sprinters

Revista Brasileira de Cineantropometria e Desempenho Humano, 2023
The aim of this study was to describe the correlation between body composition data obtained through DXA and through skinfolds strategy, with some of their respective formulas, in sprinters. The sample consisted of 15 male sprinters (23.81 years ± 3.11;

Concurrent validity of five prediction equations to evaluate fat percentage in a sports group expected to yield high performance from Medellín, Colombia

Biomédica: revista del Instituto Nacional de Salud, 2021
Introduction: No equations to predict the body composition of athletes from Medellín expected to have high performance have been constructed and, thus, decisions regarding their training and nutrition plans lack support.

HOUNSFIELD UNITS USE IN SPINAL SURGERY PLANNING: SYSTEMATIC REVIEW AND META-ANALYSIS [PDF]

Coluna/Columna, 2022
Bone mineral density is a crucial factor in the success or failure of osteosynthesis in spine surgery; it shows the onset of osteoporosis and related complications. Its evaluation is verified by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) and Hounsfield Unit
