Measurement of Fat-Free Mass in Infants [PDF]

open access: yesPediatric Research, 1995
Body composition data are important for adequate monitoring of growth and nutritional status in infants. 18O Isotope dilution techniques (ID18-O) are widely used to estimate total body water (TBW) and calculate fat-free mass (FFM). A problem of isotope dilution is an underestimation of TBW by the extrapolation to t = O approach and an overestimation of

Body Fat and Fat‐Free Mass and All‐Cause Mortality [PDF]

open access: yesObesity Research, 2004
AbstractObjective: To investigate whether the association between BMI and all‐cause mortality could be disentangled into opposite effects of body fat and fat‐free mass (FFM).Research Methods and Procedures: All‐cause mortality was studied in the Danish follow‐up study “Diet, Cancer and Health” with 27, 178 men and 29, 875 women 50 to 64 years old ...

Comparison of fat-free mass index and fat mass index in Chinese adults [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 2012
To compare the characteristics of body composition for different gender and age in a large number of apparently healthy Chinese subjects, and to determine reference values for fat-free mass index (FFMI) and fat mass index (FMI).In total, 61,382 Chinese adults (age range: 18-92 years) were consecutively enrolled into the study.

Parental fat‐free mass is related to the fat‐free mass of infants and maternal fat mass is related to the fat mass of infant girls

open access: yesActa Paediatrica, 2015
AbstractAimExisting studies suggest that weight and body composition of parents influence the size and body composition of their offspring, but are often inconclusive and conducted by means of inappropriate body composition methodology. Our aim was to study infant size and body composition variables in relation to body composition variables of their ...

The Estimation of the Fat Free Mass Index in Athletes

open access: hybridAsian Journal of Sports Medicine, 2012
The purpose of this investigation was to compare a practical measurement of fat free mass index (FFMI) from bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) to the dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) value in collegiate athletes.Thirty-three male baseball players and 16 female gymnasts volunteered to participate in this study during their respective pre ...

Reference Data for Fat Mass and Fat-Free Mass Measured by Bioelectrical Impedance in Croatian Youth [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 2021
Fat mass and fat-free mass have become useful clinical indices in determining healthy growth and physical development during critical periods of childhood and adolescence; however, despite a wide range of nutritional surveillance its study is limited by a lack of reference data.
