Differential impacts between fat mass index and fat-free mass index on patients with COPD

Respiratory Medicine, 2023
Differences in the clinical impacts of fat mass index (FMI) and fat-free mass index (FFMI) remain unclear in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). We hypothesized that FMI and FFMI have different impacts on 1) emphysema and 2) pulmonary function and health-related quality of life of COPD patients.Patients with COPD (n = 228 ...

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

International 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 ...

Fat‐free mass index predicts survival in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis

Respirology, 2016
ABSTRACT Background and objectiveDetailed body composition, such as fat‐free mass, has not been examined in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). We investigated whether the fat‐free mass index (FFMI), an index of lean body mass, predicted survival.MethodsForty‐four patients with IPF were enrolled in the study. Their body composition was assessed using
