Fat‐Free Mass: Friend or Foe to Metabolic Health? [PDF]

Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle
Background Fat mass (FM) and fat‐free mass (FFM) are body composition estimates commonly reported in research studies and clinical settings. Recently, fat‐free mass indexed to height (fat‐free mass index; FFMI) has been shown to be positively associated ...

Fat‐Free Mass and Skeletal Muscle Mass Five Years After Bariatric Surgery [PDF]

Obesity, 2018
ObjectiveThis study investigated changes in fat‐free mass (FFM) and skeletal muscle 5 years after surgery in participants from the Longitudinal Assessment of Bariatric Surgery‐2 trial.MethodsA three‐compartment model assessed FFM, and whole‐body magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) quantified skeletal muscle mass prior to surgery (T0) and 1 year (T1), 2 ...

Ratio of fat-free mass to fat mass is associated with physical performance in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus [PDF]

Frontiers in Endocrinology
BackgroundThe ratio of fat-free mass (FFM) to fat mass (FM) is a key indicator of body composition. Evidence suggests that the FFM/FM ratio is more reliable than body mass index in predicting functional outcomes in older adults with prefrailty ...

Associations of the fat-free mass index and the fat mass index with the risk of developing diabetes and prediabetes in US adults: a nationally representative cross-sectional study [PDF]

Lipids in Health and Disease
Background Obesity and overweight, as determined by the body mass index (BMI), are harmful to metabolic health. However, the BMI can not reflect body composition or fat distribution. The fat-free mass index (FFMI) and the fat mass index (FMI) can provide

The magnitude and progress of lean body mass, fat‐free mass, and skeletal muscle mass loss following bariatric surgery: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

Obesity Reviews, 2021
Postbariatric loss of muscle tissue could negatively affect long‐term health due to its role in various bodily processes, such as metabolism and functional capacity. This meta‐analysis aimed to unravel time‐dependent changes in the magnitude and progress

Relationship of Fat Mass Index and Fat Free Mass Index With Body Mass Index and Association With Function, Cognition and Sarcopenia in Pre-Frail Older Adults

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2021
Background Body mass index (BMI) is an inadequate marker of obesity, and cannot distinguish between fat mass, fat free mass and distribution of adipose tissue. The purpose of this study was twofold.
