Computed tomography measures of nutrition in patients with end-stage liver disease provide a novel approach to characterize deficits [PDF]
, 2018 Aim Patients with cirrhosis and end-stage liver disease (ESLD) develop severe nutrition deficits that impact on morbidity and mortality. Laboratory measures of nutrition fail to fully assess clinical deficits in muscle mass and fat stores.

Reference Norms for a Fat-free Mass Index and Fat Mass Index in the Japanese Child Population
Journal of PHYSIOLOGICAL ANTHROPOLOGY and Applied Human Science, 2003 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.

Scientific Reports, 2023 The relationship between body mass index (BMI) and body fatness could differ according to age, sex, and race-ethnicity. We aimed to evaluate in which contexts BMI could be a good measure for body fatness compared to dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA)

Serum osmolarity and haematocrit do not modify the association between the impedance index (Ht2/Z) and total body water in the very old: The Newcastle 85+ Study [PDF]
, 2015 Bioelectrical impedance is a non-invasive technique for the assessment of body composition; however, information on its accuracy in the very old (80+ years) is limited.

Body mass index: a measure of fatness or leanness? [PDF]
British Journal of Nutrition, 1995 The relationship between body fat and stature-adjusted weight indices was explored. Assuming the term height2is a valid indicator of a subject's lean body mass, height2/weight was shown to be an accurate measure of percentage lean body mass and, as such, a better predictor of percentage body fat than the traditional body mass index (BMI; weight/height2)

Nutrients, 2018 Tri-ponderal mass index (TMI) and fat mass index (FMI) have been proposed as alternative approaches for assessing body fat since BMI does not ensure an accurate screening for obesity and overweight status in children and adolescents.
