Succinylcholine dosage based on lean body mass [PDF]

Canadian Anaesthetists’ Society Journal, 1972
Although the dose of succinylcholine is customarily based on body weight this can be taken only as a rough guide. In the early phase after intravenous injection succinylcholine is partly removed by breakdown through the action of cholinesterase and in part by redistribution into the lean body mass. Sixty-six patients were given doses of succinylcholine

Lean body mass estimation by creatinine kinetics. [PDF]

Journal of the American Society of Nephrology, 1994
A new technique for estimating lean body mass (LBM) from creatinine kinetics has been developed. It is based on the principle that creatinine production is proportional to LBM and that, in the steady state, creatinine production is equal to the sum of creatinine excretion (urinary and dialytic) and metabolic degradation.

Serum Creatinine and Fat-free Mass (Lean Body Mass) [PDF]

Clinical Chemistry, 2000
Serum creatinine is widely used as an index of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) (1). However, it is not a sensitive index because GFR may have to decrease by >50% before serum creatinine becomes “abnormal”, and this may be at least partly attributable to the wide reference interval for serum creatinine (44–124 μmol/L).

Lean body mass in children with cystic fibrosis [PDF]

Archives of Disease in Childhood, 2003
Poor nutritional status adversely affects long term survival of patients with cystic fibrosis (CF).1 Body composition measured by dual energy x ray absorptiometry (DXA) has been shown to correlate well with other established techniques such as bioelectric impedance analysis and total body potassium estimation.2 This study was designed to compare the ...

Multi-ancestry whole genome sequencing analysis of lean body mass [PDF]

Genome Biology
Background Lean body mass is a crucial physiological component of body composition. Although lean body mass has a high heritability, studies evaluating the genetic determinants of lean mass (LM) have to date been limited largely to genome-wide ...

Utility of Lean Body Mass Equations and Body Mass Index for Predicting Outcomes in Critically Ill Adults with Sepsis: A Retrospective Study [PDF]

Diseases
Lean body mass is a significant component of survival from sepsis. Several equations can be used for calculating lean body mass based on age, sex, body weight, and height.

Sex and obesity influence the relationship between perfluoroalkyl substances and lean body mass: NHANES 2011–2018 [PDF]

Heliyon
Objective: Polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are known endocrine disruptors, that have been the subject of limited research regarding their impact on human lean body mass. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of PFAS exposure on lean body

A Scaling Approach to Understand the Dynamics of Fat and Lean Mass in Refueling Migrant Songbirds Measured by Quantitative Magnetic Resonance

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022
Fat contributes most of the energy for migratory flight of birds, whereas lean body tissues (muscles and organs) contribute amino acids and water to maintain metabolic and osmotic homeostasis.
