Dual-Energy X-ray Absorptiometry and Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis are Beneficial Tools for Measuring the Trunk Muscle Mass of Patients with Low Back Pain

open access: yesSpine Surgery and Related Research, 2019
Introduction: Limb muscle mass measurement using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is considered the gold standard for the diagnosis of sarcopenia. Moreover, bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) is also recognized as a beneficial tool considering ...

Associations Between Body Composition and Metabolic Health in Children With Obesity

open access: yesMaternal &Child Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Childhood obesity is an increasing public health problem with heterogeneous metabolic health outcomes. In children, distinguishing differences in body composition between individuals with metabolically healthy obesity (MHO) and those with metabolic syndrome (MS) may be useful for understanding the impact of body composition on metabolic health.

Association of liver enzymes and lipid profile with body fat distribution in Mexican university students

open access: yesArchivos Latinoamericanos de Nutrición
Introduction: Evidence suggests that the type of adipose tissue distribution contributes to a higher risk of developing cardiovascular diseases. It has been observed that visceral adipose tissue is highly lipolytic, and lipid distribution is primarily ...

Evaluation of iNSiGHT VET DXA (Dual-Energy X-ray Absorptiometry) for assessing body composition in obese rats fed with high fat diet: a follow-up study of diet induced obesity model for 8 weeks

open access: yesLaboratory Animal Research, 2019
We examined the precision, accuracy, and capability of detecting changes of Dual-Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DXA) for the measurements of total-body weight (TBW), total-body fat weight (TBFW), and total-body lean weight (TBLW) in an 8-week follow-up ...

Understanding Impact of Anti‐Obesity Medications on Skeletal Muscle Mass Change Is Confounded by Measurement Methods

open access: yesObesity Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Anti‐obesity medications promote greater degrees of weight loss than lifestyle interventions alone. There is an important need to understand whether loss of skeletal muscle during pharmacologically induced weight loss is clinically significant due to its essential role in health and disease.

High protein consumption in trained women: bad to the bone?

open access: yesJournal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition, 2018
Background It has been posited that the consumption of extra protein (> 0.8 g/kg/d) may be deleterious to bone mineral content. However, there is no direct evidence to show that consuming a high-protein diet results in a demineralization of the skeleton.

Use of magnetic resonance imaging to predict the body composition of pigs in vivo

open access: yesAnimal, 2013
The objective of the study was to evaluate whether magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) offers the opportunity to reliably analyze body composition of pigs in vivo. Therefore, the relation between areas of loin eye muscle and its back fat based on MRI images
