Body composition in older community-dwelling adults with hip fracture: portable field methods validated by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry [PDF]
, 2012 Ageing is associated with weight loss and subsequently poor health outcomes. The present study assessed agreement between two field methods, bioelectrical impedance spectroscopy (BIS) and corrected arm muscle area (CAMA) for assessment of body ...

Weight/height2: Mathematical overview of the world's most widely used adiposity index
Obesity Reviews, Volume 26, Issue 1, January 2025.Summary A footnote in Adolphe Quetelet's classic 1835 Treatise on Man described his algebraic analysis of how body weight ( W) varies with height ( H) in adult males and females. Using data on 12 short and 12 tall subjects of each sex, Quetelet established the rule that W is approximately proportional ( ∝) to H2 in adults; that is, W∝H2 when W≈αH2 for ...

Clinical and Translational Science, Volume 17, Issue 12, December 2024.Abstract Chronological age has been the standard for quantifying the aging process. While it is simple to quantify it cannot fully discern the biological variability of aging between individuals. The growing body of interest in this variability of human aging has led to the introduction of new biomarkers to operationalize biological age.
