The composition of body tissues
The British Journal of Radiology, 1986A reassessment of the composition data given by ICRP (1975) has been completed, augmented with results from appropriate recent studies. The water, lipid, protein, carbohydrate and ash contents, together with elemental compositions, mass and electron densities are given here for 56 body tissues.

An early statement concerning sleep function suggested that sleep was a time “related to the Sisyphean labor of anabolically building up what each day’s catabolic activity has torn down” (Johnson and Lubin 1966). This restorative theory of sleep is widely presumed to be correct and the scientific evidence in support has been marshalled by Oswald (1980).

Body composition at the bedside
European Journal of Gastroenterology & Hepatology, 1997To evaluate the use of an inexpensive hand-held bioelectric impedance analysis machine which measures lean body mass, by technical comparisons against standard instruments and techniques (an in-house bioelectric impedance machine and dual energy X-ray absorptiometry), and by performing body composition analyses in groups of potentially malnourished ...

Perspectives on body composition
Current Opinion in Clinical Nutrition and Metabolic Care, 2002Herein modern body composition techniques are described, and the uses to which they are put are set forth. They have increased our knowledge of the human growth process as well as the effects of disease, hormones, and nutrition. In essence they provide for a bloodless dissection of the human body.

The purpose of this review is to highlight recent developments in the evaluation of fetal growth, focusing on the determination of fetal body composition. The ultimate goal of this area of investigation is to improve predictions of perinatal morbidity and mortality beyond that achieved employing estimated fetal weight as the primary discriminator of ...

Body composition in older adults can be assessed using simple, convenient but less precise anthropometric methods to assess (regional) body fat and skeletal muscle, or more elaborate, precise and costly methods such as computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging.

Pediatrics in Review, 2015
Body fluid composition is maintained in a normal physiologic range by regulatory mechanisms that control sodium and water metabolism. A detailed knowledge of the homeostatic mechanisms will help in understanding the pathogenesis and management of disorders of sodium and water balance.After completing this article, readers should be able to: 1 ...
