Trajectories of Fat Mass Index, Fat Free–Mass Index, and Waist Circumference in Children [PDF]

American Journal of Preventive Medicine, 2009
Body composition and fat distribution change dramatically during adolescence. Data based on longitudinal studies to describe these changes are limited. The aim of this study was to describe age-related changes in fat free-mass index (FFMI) and fat mass index (FMI), which are components of BMI, and waist circumference (WC) in participants of Project ...

Sexual Dimorphism of the Fat Mass Index and the Fat-Free Mass Index in Healthy Adolescents

, 2023
Body mass index (BMI) does not allow to discriminate the composition of the different body compartments. This study points to the formulation of reference values of fat mass index (FMI) and fat-free mass index (FFMI) in healthy adolescents by means of anthropometric techniques, and the subsequent availability in clinical practice as reference charts ...
