Scaling of human body mass with height: The body mass index revisited

open access: yesJournal of Biomechanics, 2010
We adapt a biomechanical argument of Rashevsky, which places limits on the stress experienced by a torso supported by the legs, to deduce that body mass $m$ of growing children should scale as the $p$th power of height $h$ with $7 ...

Body mass index in dementia [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 2014
This review comprehensively examines the current knowledge on the relationship between body mass index (BMI) and dementia. The association between BMI and cognition is complex: in younger adults, higher BMIs are associated with impaired cognition. Overweight and obesity in middle age are linked to increased future dementia risk in old age.

Allometric scaling of metabolic rate and cardiorespiratory variables in aquatic and terrestrial mammals

open access: yesPhysiological Reports, 2023
While basal metabolic rate (BMR) scales proportionally with body mass (Mb), it remains unclear whether the relationship differs between mammals from aquatic and terrestrial habitats. We hypothesized that differences in BMR allometry would be reflected in
