BMI-2: A Proposal for Modified Notion of BMI
Objectives: In this paper, we have justified that existing notion of Body Mass Index (BMI) does not signify the body fat mass with a good precision. So a new version of BMI called BMI-2 is proposed. Method: The body has some parts where chance of depositing the body fat is high i.e., waist, hip, thigh and neck etc.

BMI and BMI SDS in childhood: annual increments and conditional change [PDF]
Background Early detection of abnormal weight gain in childhood may be important for preventive purposes. It is still debated which annual changes in BMI should warrant attention. Aim To analyse 1-year increments of Body Mass Index (BMI) and standardised BMI (BMI SDS) in childhood and explore conditional change in BMI SDS as an alternative method to ...

Dietary Protein Intake and Peritoneal Protein Losses in Peritoneal Dialysis Patients
ABSTRACT Introduction Peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients lose protein in their waste dialysate, potentially increasing their risk for malnutrition. We wished to determine whether there was any association between losses and dietary protein intake (DPI). Methods DPI was assessed from 24‐h dietary recall using Nutrics software.
