The Impact of Technical Error of Measurement on Somatotype Categorization
Inquiry into somatotype often seeks to assign participants into somatotype groups. The aim of this study was to demonstrate how the intra-tester reliability of anthropometric measures can influence how somatotype is categorized.

Abstract Objective Obesity in pregnancy and gestational diabetes (GDM) increase cardiometabolic disease risk but are difficult to disentangle. This study aimed to test the hypothesis that 4–10 years after a pregnancy complicated by overweight/obesity and GDM (OB‐GDM), women and children would have greater adiposity and poorer cardiometabolic health ...

Relationship of incidence of anterior cruciate ligament injuries and body-built Index somatotype in Indian population [PDF]
Background: Incidence of ACL injuries and physical parameters like age, sex, height, weight and BMI has been studied intensely as a risk factor. Each of them poses as a different risk factor for occurrence of ACL injuries. But body-built index-somatotype

The effects of a reformer Pilates program on body composition and morphological characteristics in active women after a detraining period [PDF]
The aim of this quasi-experimental pilot study was to explore the effects of a reformer Pilates program on the anthropometry, body composition, and somatotype of active adult women after a short non-exercise period.

Estimating somatotype from a single‐camera 3D body scanning system
ABSTRACT Somatotype is an approach to quantify body physique (shape and body composition). Somatotyping by manual measurement (the anthropometric method) or visual rating (the photoscopic method) needs technical expertize to minimize intra‐ and inter‐observer errors.

The Nutrition in Early Life and Asthma (NELA) birth cohort study: Rationale, design, and methods
Abstract Background Primary prevention strategies for asthma are lacking. Its inception probably starts in utero and/or during the early postnatal period as the developmental origins of health and disease (DOHaD) paradigm suggests. Objectives The main objective of Nutrition in Early Life and Asthma (NELA) cohort study is to unravel whether the ...

Clothing resistance (rcl) and potential evapotranspiration (PET) are estimated and linked to characterise the annual thermal climate of the Carpathian region for the period 1971–2000. rcl strongly depends on human body somatotype variations, consequently so does the statistical relationship between rcl and PET.
