Bioimpedance Patterns and Bioelectrical Impedance Vector Analysis (BIVA) of Body Builders

open access: yesNutrients, 2023
Bodybuilders are athletes characterized by high muscle mass. During competitions, the evaluation is performed based on aesthetic parameters. The study aims to provide normative references of body composition with the vector bioimpedance methodology (BIVA). A second aim is to compare BIVA assessments performed on both sides and the upper and lower body.

Differentiation of Cardiac and Noncardiac Dyspnea Using Bioelectrical Impedance Vector Analysis (BIVA)

open access: yesJournal of Cardiac Failure, 2012
There is no gold standard for the differential diagnosis of acute dyspnea despite the usefulness of N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) and lung ultrasound. No study has evaluated the contribution of bioelectrical impedance vector analysis (BIVA) in discriminating between cardiac and noncardiac dyspnea.

Bioelectric Impedance Vector Analysis (BIVA) in Hospitalised Children; Predictors and Associations With Clinical Outcomes [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 2019
Clinical use of bioelectric impedance is limited by variability in hydration. Analysis of raw bioelectric impedance vectors (BIVA), resistance (R), reactance (Xc) and phase angle (PA) may be an alternative for monitoring disease progression/treatment. Clinical experience of BIVA in children is limited.

Combined Evaluation of Nutrition and Hydration in Dialysis Patients With Bioelectrical Impedance Vector Analysis (BIVA)

open access: yesClinical Nutrition, 2014
Body hydration changes continuously in hemodialysis patients. The Subjective Global Assessment (SGA) is used for the nutritional evaluation but it does not allow a direct evaluation of hydration. Bioelectrical impedance vector analysis (BIVA) is very sensitive to hydration.

Efficacy of Specific Bioelectrical Impedance Vector Analysis (BIVA) for Assessing Body Composition in the Elderly

open access: yesJournal of Nutrition, Health and Aging, 2013
Objectives: This study aimed to ascertain the efficacy of bioelectrical impedance vector analysis (BIVA) in assessing body composition in the elderly by comparing findings with the results of dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA), and to test an ...

Ultrasonography of Quadriceps Femoris Muscle and Subcutaneous Fat Tissue and Body Composition by BIVA in Chronic Dialysis Patients [PDF]

open access: yesNutrients, 2020
Protein Energy Wasting (PEW) in hemodialysis (HD) patients is a multifactorial condition due to specific pathology-related pathogenetic mechanisms, leading to loss of skeletal muscle mass in HD patients. Computed Tomography and Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Near Optimal Decoding for TCM Using the BIVA and Trellis Shaping

1999
In this paper a bootstrap iterative decoding technique concatenated with the Viterbi algorithm (BIVA) and trellis shaping for trellis-coded modulation (TCM) is proposed. The concept of a bootstrap decoding is introduced first and then the new metric functions which take into account the bootstrap iterative decoding algorithm for TCM systems are derived.

Computationally efficient turbo decoding with the bi-directional Viterbi algorithm (BIVA)

Proceedings of IEEE International Symposium on Information Theory, 2002
An algorithm for decoding parallel concatenated codes (turbo codes) that replaces the BCJR algorithm with a new Viterbi type algorithm is presented. Replacement of the BCJR algorithm with the new algorithm results in a gain in computational efficiency with only a slight loss in BER performance.
