Serum Creatinine and Fat-free Mass (Lean Body Mass) [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Chemistry, 2000
Serum creatinine is widely used as an index of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) (1). However, it is not a sensitive index because GFR may have to decrease by >50% before serum creatinine becomes “abnormal”, and this may be at least partly attributable to the wide reference interval for serum creatinine (44–124 μmol/L).

Causal associations between body fat accumulation and COVID-19 severity: A Mendelian randomization study

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2022
Previous studies reported associations between obesity measured by body mass index (BMI) and coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). However, BMI is calculated only with height and weight and cannot distinguish between body fat mass and fat-free mass. Thus,

Measurement of Fat-Free Mass in Infants [PDF]

open access: yesPediatric Research, 1995
Body composition data are important for adequate monitoring of growth and nutritional status in infants. 18O Isotope dilution techniques (ID18-O) are widely used to estimate total body water (TBW) and calculate fat-free mass (FFM). A problem of isotope dilution is an underestimation of TBW by the extrapolation to t = O approach and an overestimation of

Rate and Determinants of Excessive Fat-Free Mass Loss After Bariatric Surgery

open access: yesObesity Surgery, 2020
Purpose Fat-free mass (FFM) loss is a concerning aspect of bariatric surgery, but little is known about its time-course and factors related with excessive FFM loss. This study examined (i) the progress of FFM loss up to 3 years post-bariatric surgery and
