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 [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2021
BackgroundBody 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.

Fat-free mass index and fat mass index percentiles in Caucasians aged 18–98 y

open access: yesInternational Journal of Obesity, 2002
To determine reference values for fat-free mass index (FFMI) and fat mass index (FMI) in a large Caucasian group of apparently healthy subjects, as a function of age and gender and to develop percentile distribution for these two parameters.Cross-sectional study in which bioelectrical impedance analysis (50 kHz) was measured (using tetrapolar ...

Association between fat mass index, fat‐free mass index and hemoglobin A1c in a Japanese population: The Tohoku Medical Megabank Community‐based Cohort Study [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Diabetes Investigation, 2022
Aims/Introduction Fat mass and fat‐free mass affect glycated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) levels and blood glucose levels, respectively. The aim of the present study was to examine the association between the fat mass index and fat‐free mass index with HbA1c ...

Influence of fat-free mass index on the survival of patients with head and neck cancer. [PDF]

open access: yesEur Arch Otorhinolaryngol, 2023
Purpose To determine whether muscle mass, defined by fat-free mass index (FFMI) measured with bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA), is predictive of survival of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) patients.

The Application of Fat-Free Mass Index for Survival Prediction in Cancer Patients With Normal and High Body Mass Index. [PDF]

open access: yesFront Nutr, 2021
Background: Fat-free mass (FFM) depletion can be masked by a stable body weight or weight gain in the presence of a normal or high body mass index (BMI).

Association between the combined fat mass and fat-free mass index and hypertension: The Tohoku Medical Megabank Community-based Cohort Study

open access: yesClinical and Experimental Hypertension, 2021
Background A  higher body fat percentage is associated with hypertension, even in non-obese individuals. The difference in body composition may be related to hypertension. The fat mass index (FMI) and fat-free mass index (FFMI) are proposed indicators of

Chest computed tomography-derived low fat-free mass index and mortality in COPD. [PDF]

open access: yesEur Respir J, 2017
Low fat-free mass index (FFMI) is an independent risk factor for mortality in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) not typically measured during routine care. In the present study, we aimed to derive fat-free mass from the pectoralis muscle area (

Fat-free mass index: changes and race/ethnic differences in adulthood [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Obesity, 2010
Objective:Nutritional status is assessed by measuring BMI or percent body fat (%fat). BMI can misclassify persons who carry more weight as fat-free mass and %fat can be misleading in cases of malnutrition or in disease states characterized by wasting of ...

Reference Norms for a Fat-free Mass Index and Fat Mass Index in the Japanese Child Population

open access: yesJournal of Physiological Anthropology and Applied Human Science, 2003
The aims of this study were to determine reference norms for a fat-free mass index (FFMI) and fat mass index (FMI) in a large population of healthy children in Japan, to observe differences in these values in three age groups between ages three and eleven, and to develop percentile distributions for these parameters.
