Waist-to-Hip Ratio is Related to Body Fat Content and Distribution Regardless of the Waist Circumference Measurement Protocol, in Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease Patients [PDF]
, 2016 Central accumulation and distribution of body fat (BF) is an important cardiometabolic risk factor. Waist-to-hip ratio (WHR), commonly elevated in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) patients, has been endorsed as a risk related marker of central ...

Aging Cell, EarlyView.We examined eating window and mortality among 33,052 U.S. adults from NHANES 2003–2018 with mortality linkage. A U‐shaped association was observed: moderate eating windows of ~11–12 h/day were linked to the lowest risk, while shorter windows (< 8 h/day) and longer windows (≥ 15 h/day) were associated with 30% and 25% higher all‐cause mortality ...

Body Adiposity Index as a Predictor of Body Fat in an Oldest Old and Independent Cohort of Brazilian Older Adults [PDF]
Annals of Geriatric Medicine and ResearchBackground Anthropometry and body mass index (BMI) do not assess body composition or its distribution in older adults; thus, individuals may have different fat percentages but similar BMI values.

Relation of BMI to a dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry measure of fatness [PDF]
, 2017 Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is a valid technique for measuring the fat, bone and lean (muscle, organs and water) masses of the body. We evaluated relationships of BMI (kg/m2) with independent measurements of fat and lean masses using DXA in ...

Caloric Restriction Reprograms Adipose Tissues in Rhesus Monkeys
Aging Cell, EarlyView.Here we show shared and depot‐specific adaptations to life‐long CR in subcutaneous and visceral adipose depots from advanced‐age male rhesus monkeys. Transcriptomics reveal differences between the depots, as well as shared and distinct CR‐responsive pathways.

Calibration of dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry for bone density
Journal of Bone and Mineral Research, 1991 Abstract Bone Mineral Content (Bmc, G) Using Dexa (Lunar Dpx) Was Measured On Known Hydroxyapatite Samples In A Water Bath In The Presence Of Uniform And Nonuniform Coverings Of Fat-Equivalent Materials. Selective Placement Of Paraffin Over Bone Had A Greater Effect Than Lard In Reducing Apparent Bmc, And Polycarbonate Plastic Had A ...

Measurement of bone quality in growing male rats using dual energy x-ray absorptiometry and bone ash content : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Applied Science in Animal Science at Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand [PDF]
, 2001 Growing male rats have been considered and used as a model for bone growth and prevention of osteoporosis because of their high bone turnover and demand for calcium. Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DEXA) is a useful tool for identifying minimal changes

Ultra‐processed food addiction in a nationally representative sample of older adults in the USA
Addiction, EarlyView.Abstract Aims Ultra‐processed foods (UPFs; industrially produced foods typically containing unnaturally elevated levels of refined carbohydrates and/or added fats) became more widely introduced into the United States (US) food environment in the 1980s and have proliferated since. UPFs have been shown to trigger an addictive‐like response.
