New fat free mass - fat mass model for use in physiological energy balance equations [PDF]

Nutrition & Metabolism, 2010
Background: The Forbes equation relating fat-free mass (FFM) to fat mass (FM) has been used to predict longitudinal changes in FFM during weight change but has important limitations when paired with a one dimensional energy balance differential equation.

Reference values of fat mass index and fat-free mass index in healthy Spanish adolescents. [PDF]

Nutrición Hospitalaria, 2019
Abstract Background . Body mass index (BMI) does not allow to discriminate the composition of the different body compartments. The aim of this study is to elaborate reference values ​of the fat mass index (FMI) and fat-free mass index (FFMI) in healthy adolescents using anthropometric techniques in order to be available as reference standards ...

Fat Free Mass and Fat Free Mass Index as Reference Variables for Expiratory and Inspiratory Flow Rates [PDF]

IOSR Journal of Pharmacy (IOSRPHR), 2013
Flow rates are very important factors which affect the volume and speed at which air is moved into and out of lung. Body Mass Index and Waist Hip ratio are the most commonly used parameters nowadays to assess obesity and the diseases associated with it. But both the parameters have the limitation of not distinguishing between fat compartment and muscle

Fat–fat-free index in body mass assessment in young people

Frontiers in Physiology, 2022
The study aimed to personalize the classification of body weight using the fat–fat-free (FFF) index with the percentage of body fat and to develop classification standards for the FFF index for men aged 18–25 years. Moreover, 1,642 adolescents (1,200 ♀) were examined.

Fat free mass and obesity in relation to educational level [PDF]

BMC Public Health, 2009
Abstract Background The aim of the study was to describe the body composition of Finnish adults, especially by education, and to investigate whether fat-free mass (FFM) can explain educational gradients relating to body mass index (BMI) and waist-to-hip ratio (WHR). Methods
