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 ...

Relative Fat Mass: Refining Adiposity Measurement in the Era Beyond Body Mass Index. [PDF]
Curr Heart Fail RepAbstract Purpose of Review To position relative fat mass (RFM) as a more accurate, physiologically grounded, and clinically useful alternative to body mass index (BMI) for assessing adiposity and predicting cardiometabolic risk, including heart failure.

Correlations of Anthropometric Measurements With Body Fat Percentage, Fat Mass, and Fat Mass Index in School-Age Children. [PDF]
CureusChildhood obesity is a growing public health issue globally, including in India. Anthropometric measures such as body mass index (BMI), waist circumference, and skinfold thickness are commonly used to estimate body fat percentage (BF%), but their correlations with fat mass (FM) and fat mass index (FMI) are less emphasized.

Association Between Fat Mass in Early Life and Later Fat Mass Trajectories
JAMA Pediatrics, 2020 A rapid increase in weight in early life is associated with an increased risk for adiposity and cardiovascular diseases at age 21 years and beyond. However, data on associations of early change in measured fat mass percentage (FM%) with adiposity development are lacking.To investigate whether a rapid increase in FM% in the first months of life is ...
