Performance of Body Fat Percentage, Fat Mass Index and Body Mass Index for Detecting Cardiometabolic Outcomes in Brazilian Adults [PDF]
Obesity is a recognized risk factor for the development of cardiometabolic outcomes. Therefore, it is essential to evaluate anthropometric and body composition indicators used for its diagnosis. This study aimed to assess the diagnostic performance of body fat percentage (BF%), fat mass index (FMI) and body mass index (BMI) for detecting ...

Differential impacts between fat mass index and fat-free mass index on patients with COPD
Respiratory Medicine, 2023Differences in the clinical impacts of fat mass index (FMI) and fat-free mass index (FFMI) remain unclear in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). We hypothesized that FMI and FFMI have different impacts on 1) emphysema and 2) pulmonary function and health-related quality of life of COPD patients.Patients with COPD (n = 228 ...

Reference Norms for a Fat-free Mass Index and Fat Mass Index in the Japanese Child Population
The aims of this study were to determine reference norms for a fat-free mass index (FFMI) and fat mass index (FMI) in a large population of healthy children in Japan, to observe differences in these values in three age groups between ages three and eleven, and to develop percentile distributions for these parameters.

Body mass index (BMI) is widely used to assess the prevalence of childhood obesity in populations and its relationship with blood pressure has been observed. However, no studies on the distribution of fat mass index (FMI) and fat-free mass index (FFMI) and their relationship with blood pressure have been reported.The present study examined the ...

Body mass index and body fatness in childhood
Current Opinion in Clinical Nutrition & Metabolic Care, 2005The prevalence of overweight, as assessed by a high body mass index (kg/m), has greatly increased among children and adolescents over the last three decades. Because body mass index is a measure of excess weight rather than excess body fatness, it is important to understand the ability of a high level to identify children who truly have excess ...

Body mass index as an estimate of body fat
International Journal of Eating Disorders, 1995Body mass index (BMI) was compared with percentage body fat (%Fat) measured by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) in 233 adolescent schoolgirl volunteers and 179 adult female patients. Repeat measurements were made on 67 of the adolescents and 51 of the adults.

Fat mass index and airway hyperresponsiveness in Korean adults
Postgraduate Medicine, 2023Airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR) is associated with asthma and obesity, which is defined as a high body mass index. Body mass mainly comprises fat mass (FM) and muscle mass (MM), which are independent of each other. We investigated the effect of changes in FM over time on the development of asymptomatic AHR in adults.This long-term longitudinal study ...
