(S)fermion masses in the fat brane scenario [PDF]

Physical Review D, 2002
We discuss the fermion mass hierarchy and the flavor mixings in the fat brane scenario of a five dimensional SUSY theory. Assuming that the matter fields lives in the bulk, their zero mode wave functions are Gaussians, and Higgs fields are localized on the brane, we find simple various types of the matter configurations generating the mass matrices ...

Changes in ponderal index and body mass index across childhood and their associations with fat mass and cardiovascular risk factors at age 15 [PDF]

, 2010
Background: Little is known about whether associations between childhood adiposity and later adverse cardiovascular health outcomes are driven by tracking of overweight from childhood to adulthood and/or by vascular and metabolic changes from childhood ...

Slow and Steady, or Hard and Fast? A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Studies Comparing Body Composition Changes between Interval Training and Moderate Intensity Continuous Training

Sports, 2021
Purpose: To conduct a systematic review and multilevel meta-analysis of the current literature as to the effects of interval training (IT) vs moderate intensity continuous training (MICT) on measures of body composition, both on a whole-body and regional

Personalized Diet in Obesity: A Quasi-Experimental Study on Fat Mass and Fat-Free Mass Changes [PDF]

Healthcare, 2021
Considering that the prevalence of overweight and obesity in Southeast of Spain is high, the aim of this work was to analyze the relation between the adherence to a personalized diet and the effectiveness of changes in the body composition in overweight and obese adults in this region.

Cross-sectional study of characteristics of body composition of 24,845 children and adolescents aged 3–17 years in Suzhou

BMC Pediatrics, 2023
Background We aimed to analyze the characteristics of the body composition of children and adolescents aged 3–17 in Suzhou, China. Methods A cross-sectional study between January 2020 and June 2022 using bioelectrical impedance was conducted to determine

Body mass index percentiles versus body composition assessments: Challenges for disease risk classifications in children

Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2023
BackgroundIdentifying at-risk children with optimal specificity and sensitivity to allow for the appropriate intervention strategies to be implemented is crucial to improving the health and well-being of children. We determined relationships of body mass

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

Acta 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 ...

Consistency of fat mass–fat-free mass relationship across ethnicity and sex groups [PDF]

British Journal of Nutrition, 2010
The model developed by Forbes (1987) of how body fat mass (FM) and fat-free mass (FFM) change during periods of weight loss or gain (Δ body weight (BW)) assumed that they change in relationship to a constantC = 10·4, where ΔFFM/ΔBW = 10·4/(10·4+FM). Forbes derivedCbased on aggregated, cross-sectional data from a small sample of women.
