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

open access: yesObesity, 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 ...

Evolution of body composition following successful kidney transplantation is strongly influenced by physical activity: results of the CORPOS study

open access: yesBMC Nephrology, 2021
Background Weight gain (mainly gain of fat mass) occurs quickly after successful kidney transplantation and is associated with metabolic complications (alterations of glycaemic control, hyperlipidaemia). Determinants of weight gain are multifactorial and
