Fat-Free Mass as a Function of Fat Mass and Habitual Activity Level [PDF]

International Journal of Sports Medicine, 1992
The best predictor of energy expenditure in man is the fat-free mass of the body. Fat-free mass explains most of the variation in resting metabolic rate and even in total metabolic rate under sedentary conditions. We studied possible determinants of fat-free mass as routes to influence energy metabolism.

Reexamination of the relationship of resting metabolic rate to fat-free mass and to the metabolically active components of fat-free mass in humans

The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 1992
The ratio of resting metabolic rate (RMR) to fat-free mass (FFM) is often used to compare individuals of different body sizes. Because RMR has not been well described over the full range of FFM, a literature review was conducted among groups with a wide range of FFM.

The relationship between body fat mass and fat-free mass.

Journal of the American College of Nutrition, 1991
It has been suggested that there is a curvilinear relationship between lean body or fat-free mass and body fat mass. In order to confirm this relationship, body composition was measured by determining body density and total body water using deuterium-labeled water in subjects varying widely in body fat mass. There were 29 males and 75 females with body

Magnetic resonance imaging-measured skeletal muscle mass to fat-free mass ratio increases with increasing levels of fat-free mass

The Journal of Sports Medicine and Physical Fitness, 2019
To investigate the skeletal muscle mass to fat-free mass (SM-FFM) ratio in female and male athletes, as well as to examine the relationship between ultrasound predicted SM and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-measured SM.Seven female track and field athletes (female), 8 male collegiate swimmers (male-G1) and 8 male collegiate Olympic weightlifters ...

Fat-free Mass Characteristics of Muscular Physique Athletes

Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise, 2019
ABSTRACTPurposeSimple body composition models, such as two-compartment models, use assumptions which may be violated in specific athletic populations (e.g., the constancy of fat-free mass density [DFFM] and hydration [TBW:FFM]). The present analysis examined FFM characteristics of muscular physique athletes.MethodsTwenty-six athletes (16 males: 94.5 ...

Fat-Free Mass Depletion and Inflammation in Patients with Bronchiectasis

Journal of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, 2012
Fat-free mass depletion has been related to increased inflammatory activity and to increased morbidity and mortality in chronic respiratory diseases. The aims of our study were to determine the nutritional status and serum levels of adipocytokines and inflammatory cytokines in patients with bronchiectasis of any etiology and their relation with ...

Prediction of Fat-Free Mass in Kidney Transplant Recipients

Therapeutic Drug Monitoring, 2016
Background: Individualization of drug doses is essential in kidney transplant recipients. For many drugs, the individual dose is better predicted when using fat-free mass (FFM) as a scaling factor. Multiple equations have been developed to predict FFM based on healthy subjects.

Left ventricular mass correlates with fat-free mass but not fat mass in adults

Journal of Hypertension, 1999
Left ventricular mass is associated with body size, obesity and blood pressure. Echocardiography is routinely used to estimate this parameter, which is usually indexed to body surface area to allow comparisons to be made between individuals and groups of different body size.

Adjusting for Fat-Free Mass in Metabolic Studies

Hormone and Metabolic Research, 2002
in a recent publication, Eriksson et al. [1] explored the relationship between size at birth and resting metabolic rate and body composition in adulthood in a cohort of over 300 men and women. They reported an unexpected finding that people of both sexes who had a low birth weight also had a higher metabolic activity per unit muscle tissue.

Predicting fat-free mass in children using bioimpedance analysis

Acta Diabetologica, 2003
Body composition assessment is a useful procedure for the study of nutritional status and water distribution. In adults, it is a predictor of morbidity and mortality, since body fatness is associated with risk factors for cardiovascular disease. Bioelectric impedance analysis (BIA) is a simple, safe, and inexpensive method for assessment of body ...
