BODY MASS INDEX AND BODY FAT CONTENT IN ELITE ATHLETES
The aim of this study was to evaluate body fat content (BF) of elite athletes obtained by two different field methods for body composition measurements and to compare it with body mass index (BMI) values.

Newer v/s Classical Anthropometric Indices as a Screening Tool for Dyslipidemia in Healthy Young Adults [PDF]
Introduction: The association of obesity with higher rates of dyslipidemia and cardiovascular diseases has been well documented. The most commonly used classical anthropometric indices do not provide an accurate distinction between adipose tissue and ...

Tidal spin down rates of homogeneous triaxial viscoelastic bodies [PDF]
We use numerical simulations to measure the sensitivity of the tidal spin down rate of a homogeneous triaxial ellipsoid to its axis ratios by comparing the drift rate in orbital semi-major axis to that of a spherical body with the same mass, volume and simulated rheology.

Intestinal Microbiota Is Influenced by Gender and Body Mass Index
Intestinal microbiota changes are associated with the development of obesity. However, studies in humans have generated conflicting results due to high inter-individual heterogeneity in terms of diet, age, and hormonal factors, and the largely unexplored

Body Mass Index, a Body Shape Index, and Waist-to-Height Ratio in Predicting Elevated Blood Pressure
Background: One of the complications of obesity is an elevation in blood pressure which can increase the risk of hypertension. This study aimed to explore body mass index (BMI), a body shape index (ABSI), and waist-to-height ratio (WHtR) in predicting ...

Masses and Magnetic moments of Triply Heavy Flavour Baryons in Hypercentral Model [PDF]
Triply heavy flavour baryons are studied using the hyper central description of the three-body system. The confinement potential is assumed as hyper central coulomb plus power potential with power index $p$. The ground state ($J^P={1/2}^+$ and ${3/2}^+$) masses of heavy flavour baryons are computed for different power index, $ p$ starting from 0.5 to 2.

Body Mass Index and Body Shape
Background: Human body shape is associated with the distribution of body fat and obesity-related diseases. The objectives of the study were to investigate the distribution of body shape by age and sex. Also to examine associations between body mass index (BMI) and body shape using Three-dimensional (3-D) data in Korean adults. Methods: This study was a
