Weight-adjusted lean body mass and calf circumference are protective against obesity-associated insulin resistance and metabolic abnormalities [PDF]
Heliyon, 2017 Background: To test the hypothesis that preserved muscle mass is protective against obesity-associated insulin resistance and metabolic abnormalities, we analyzed the relationship of lean body mass and computed tomography-assessed sectional areas of ...

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 ...
