Extracellular stimulation window explained by a geometry-based model of the neuron-electrode contact [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Extracellular stimulation of single cultured neurons which are completely sealing a microelectrode is usually performed using anodic or biphasic currents of at least 200 nA.

Different frequencies to estimate bone mineral content from raw bioelectrical impedance data in adolescent soccer players: a critical analysis

open access: yesFrontiers in Nutrition
IntroductionSkeletal muscle mass, body cell mass, total body water (TBW), and bone mineral mass (BMC) are components of fat-free mass (FFM), which conducts electrical energy due to its high water and electrolyte content.

Relation of BMI to a dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry measure of fatness [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is a valid technique for measuring the fat, bone and lean (muscle, organs and water) masses of the body. We evaluated relationships of BMI (kg/m2) with independent measurements of fat and lean masses using DXA in ...

Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis in Professional and Semi-Professional Football: A Scoping Review

open access: yesSports
Background: Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) is a widely used field technique for assessing body composition in football. However, its reliance on population-specific regression equations limits its accuracy. Objective: This scoping review aimed to

Body Composition and Wages [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper examines the effect of body composition on wages. We develop measures of body composition – body fat (BF) and fat-free mass (FFM) – using data on bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) that are available in the National Health and Nutrition ...
