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

Measurement of Fat-Free Mass in Infants [PDF]
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

Control of bone and fat mass by oxytocin [PDF]
Abstract Osteoporosis and overweight/obesity constitute major worldwide public health burdens. Aging is associated with a decrease in hormonal secretion, lean mass and bone mass, and an increase in fat accumulation. It is established that both obesity and osteoporosis are affected by genetic and environmental factors, bone remodeling and

Weight trajectories through infancy and childhood and risk of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease in adolescence: the ALSPAC study [PDF]
Background and Aims: Adiposity is a key risk factor for NAFLD. Few studies have examined prospective associations of infant and childhood adiposity with subsequent NAFLD risk.

The Minimal Supersymmetric Fat Higgs Model [PDF]
We present a calculable supersymmetric theory of a composite ``fat'' Higgs boson. Electroweak symmetry is broken dynamically through a new gauge interaction that becomes strong at an intermediate scale. The Higgs mass can easily be 200-450 GeV along with
