Changes in fat mass and fat-free mass during the adiposity rebound: FLAME study

International Journal of Pediatric Obesity, 2011
To determine the changes in body composition from 3 to 7 years of age in children undergoing adiposity rebound (AR) at different ages.Body composition was measured bi-annually by bioelectrical impedance in 229 children from a birth cohort. Age at AR was calculated from changes in weight and height velocity over time. Early AR was defined as < 6.1 years

Body fat mass in hemodialysis patients [PDF]

American Journal of Kidney Diseases, 2003
Changes in body fat mass in a large number of hemodialysis patients is unknown.Body fat mass and lean body mass were measured by dual x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) in 561 patients with hemodialysis duration less than 180 months (62.3 +/- 11.5 years old; mean +/- SD).Fat mass tended to increase during the first 3 years of hemodialysis, and it tended to ...

Prediction of Fat-Free Mass in Children

Clinical Pharmacokinetics, 2015
Fat-free mass (FFM) is an important covariate for predicting drug clearance. Models for predicting FFM have been developed in adults but there is currently a paucity of mechanism-based models developed to predict FFM in children.The aim of this study was to develop and evaluate a model to predict FFM in children.A large dataset (496 females and 515 ...

Body Fat Mass, Leptin and Puberty

Journal of Pediatric Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2000
Leptin, the ob gene product, provides a molecular basis for the lipostatic theory of the regulation of energy balance. Leptin circulates as a monomeric 16 kDa protein in rodent and human plasma and is also bound to leptin binding proteins that may form large high molecular weight complexes.

Changes in physiology with increasing fat mass

Seminars in Pediatric Surgery, 2009
Obesity has reached epidemic proportions in the USA with a nearly fourfold rise in the prevalence of childhood obesity. There are many possible etiologies of obesity as the adipose tissue plays a significant, complex role in the physiology of fuel metabolism and hormone regulation.
