Comparison between bioelectrical impedance analysis and anthropometric indices in hypertensive patients

Pediatria i Medycyna Rodzinna, 2018
Aim: Obesity is one of the most crucial challenges of contemporary medicine. Bioelectrical impedance analysis is a useful tool to identify individuals with increased fat mass. However, the equipment is relatively expensive, especially compared to basic

Fuzzy logic as a decision-making support system for the indication of bariatric surgery based on an index (OBESINDEX) generated by the association between body fat and body mass index [PDF]

, 2011
Background: A Fuzzy Obesity Index (OBESINDEX) for use as an alternative in bariatric surgery indication (BSI) is presented. The search for a more accurate method to evaluate obesity and to indicate a better treatment is important in the world health ...

Research Progress and Applications of Non‐Carrier‐Injection Electroluminescence

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
Non‐carrier‐injection electroluminescence (NCI‐EL) uses AC fields and displacement currents to trigger light from internal charge reservoirs, enabling minimalist emitters with remotely coupled terminals. This review maps shared mechanisms across organics, GaN, quantum dots, and TMDCs, compares planar, interdigital, single‐terminal, and coaxial designs,

Development of a Segmental Bioelectrical Impedance Spectroscopy Device for Body Composition Measurement

Sensors, 2019
Whole-body bioelectrical impedance analysis for measuring body composition has been well-explored but may not be sensitive enough to changes in the trunk compared to changes in the limbs. Measuring individual body segments can address this issue.
