Lean body mass in twins

Metabolism, 1995
A study of 49 pairs of monozygous (MZ) twins and 38 pairs of same-sexed dizygous (DZ) twins showed that lean body mass (LBM), as determined by potassium 40 counting, is under genetic influence. Intrapair variances for LBM are much smaller than those for body fat, which suggests that LBM has a higher degree of heritability.

The Meaning and Measurement of Lean Body Mass

Nutrition Reviews, 2009
Methods of measuring lean body mass have evolved greatly in the past decade. Because all practical methods of measurement are indirect (i.e., not involving carcass analysis), appropriate models of body composition must be applied. Today's improved precision is due both to better instrumentation and to improved models based on partition of the body into

Loss of Lean Body Mass in Uremia [PDF]

open access: possible, 2007
The pathophysiological consequences of kidney failure and other catabolic conditions such as diabetes, burn injury, cancer, sepsis, muscle denervation and starvation, include loss of protein stores. This chapter will describe the impressive concordance between studies performed with cultured muscle cells and studies involving experimental animals and ...

Sex, lean body mass, and cardiac performance

Science Translational Medicine, 2022
Lower lean body mass associated with reduced cardiovascular reserve at rest and peak exercise in women but not men may underlie sex differences in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (Diaz-Canestro et al. ).

Albumin Metabolism as a Function of Lean Body Mass

Annals of Nutrition and Metabolism, 1972
In 13 subjects with different body weight, the body density was assessed by hydrostatic weighing and the metabolism and distribution of albumin labelled with radioactive iodine. Between the amount of thus estimated lean body mass (LBM) and parameters of albumin metabolism, important correlations were found.

Urinary creatinine excretion and lean body mass

The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 1976
In a group of 34 adult and child subjects a high correlation (r = 0.988) was found between lean body mass, as determined by potassium-40 counting, and urinary creatinine excretion. The effect of technical errors was reduced by averaging the results of two or three 40K assays on each subject, and by making consecutive 3-day collections of urine.

Evaluation of lean body mass in obese children

European Journal of Pediatrics, 2007
Multiple skinfold anthropometry (MSA) and bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) are useful as clinically non-invasive, inexpensive and portable techniques, although it is not clear if they can be used interchangeably in the same patient to routinely assess her/his body composition.

Lean body mass as a determinant of thyroid size

Clinical Endocrinology, 1998
OBJECTIVEMales have a larger thyroid gland than females, and this has been related to the difference in body weight. In view of the different body composition of men and women, we hypothesized that lean body mass is a better determinant of thyroid volume than body weight.DESIGNA cross‐sectional study in an area not deficient in iodine.SUBJECTS44 non ...

Gentamicin Dosage and Lean Body Mass

Annals of Internal Medicine, 1977
Excerpt To the editor: The paper by Hull and Sarubbi in the August 1976 issue (Ann Intern Med85:183-189) has been useful in helping us to administer appropriate doses of gentamicin to our patients....
