Segmental body composition estimated by specific BIVA and dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry

open access: yesClinical Nutrition, 2021
The aim of this study was to analyse the association between specific bioelectric impedance vector analysis (BIVA) and dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) to assess segmental body composition using DXA as the reference technique.The sample comprised 50 young active students who practised or played different sports (25 men, age: 24.37 ± 4.79 y; 25 ...

Asymptotic independence in more than two dimensions and its implications on risk management

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Statistics, EarlyView.
Abstract In extreme value theory, the presence of asymptotic independence signifies that joint extreme events across multiple variables are unlikely. Although well understood in a bivariate context, the concept remains relatively unexplored when addressing the nuances of simultaneous occurrence of extremes in higher dimensions.

Extent and toxicity of contaminated marine sediments in Southeastern Florida [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Thirty sites were sampled in southern Biscayne Bay and Manatee Bay in December 1999 to determine the extent of toxicity in sediments. Analyses and assays included: pesticides and phenols in seawater; chemical contaminants in sediment; amphipod mortality,

Bioelectrical impedance vector analysis (BIVA) for the assessment of two-compartment body composition [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 2014
This review is directed to define the efficacy of bioelectrical impedance vector analysis (BIVA) for assessing two-compartment body composition. A systematic literature review using MEDLINE database up to 12 February 2014 was performed. The list of papers citing the first description of BIVA, obtained from SCOPUS, and the reference lists of included ...

A Markov approach to credit rating migration conditional on economic states

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Statistics, EarlyView.
Abstract We develop a model for credit rating migration that accounts for the impact of economic state fluctuations on default probabilities. The joint process for the economic state and the rating is modelled as a time‐homogeneous Markov chain. While the rating process itself possesses the Markov property only under restrictive conditions, methods ...

Bioimpedance patterns and bioelectrical impedance vector analysis (BIVA) of road cyclists

open access: yesJournal of Sports Sciences, 2018
Bioelectrical impedance vector-analysis (BIVA) describes cell-mass, cell function and hydration status of an individual or a group. The goal of the present investigation was to provide bioelectrical impedance data for 525 male road cyclists (155 professionals, 79 elite, 59 elite-youth, and 232 amateurs) at the time of their optimal performance level ...

A Novel Biventricular Assist Device With a Single Driveline: A Report on the First Patient Treated

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
We would like to report the first‐in‐human implantation of the novel DuoCor‐BiVAS biventricular assist device (BiVAD). This system features a single driveline and compact peripheral components, offering a promising mechanical support option for patients with terminal biventricular heart failure ineligible for heart transplantation.

Commuting by bicycle (vs. by car) is associated with improved aerobic power, microvascular function and diminished CO2 output in the atmosphere

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The study investigated whether bicycle compared with car commuting, over relatively small distances, has positive effects on physiological variables, cardiometabolic fitness and CO2 output in the atmosphere. Bike Commuters (11 M, 15 F; age [median value (interquartile range)] 51.5 (38.3–56.8) years; body mass index [BMI] 22.8 (21.0–24.1) kg m ...
