Maternal Lean Body Mass and Birth‐Weight

Australian and New Zealand Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, 1996
Summary: Maternal lean body mass at booking was estimated according to a formula employing the body mass index and maternal age in a sample of 511 women who booked in the first trimester of pregnancy. The significance of this parameter in comparison with established predictors of birth‐weight such as maternal weight, height, smoking, parity ...

Lean body mass in obesity.

International journal of obesity, 1983
Most obese individuals, both children and adults, have an increase in lean weight (LBM) as well as fat, the former accounting for as much as 40 percent of the excess weight in some studies. Intentional overfeeding of normal individuals augments LBM as well as fat.

LEAN BODY MASS

A.M.A. Archives of Internal Medicine, 1953
MORE THAN a hundred years ago, von Bezold 1 enunciated a fundamental concept regarding body composition. He stated that every animal possesses a normal water, organic matter, and salt content which is characteristic of its species and age. In the process of maturation the changes which occur in the composition of mammals, birds, and amphibians were ...

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.

Total body water and lean body mass estimated by ethanol dilution

Journal of Applied Physiology, 1977
Total body water (TBW) was determined on 35 subjects with a tritium (HTO) and an ethanol (ETH) dilution method, the latter using breath analyses for blood ethanol content. Lean body mass (LBM) was estimated by hydrostatic weighing. Mean values for water fraction (TBW/wt) were 0.618 +/- 0.05 with HTO and 0.603 +/- 0.06 with ETH.

LEAN BODY MASS AND FAT IN OBESE CHILDREN

Pediatrics, 1964
Measurements of total body potassium in obese children were made in the whole body scintillation counter, and from this value lean body mass was calculated, and then fat by difference. A series of normal children was available for comparison. There was a good correlation between total body fat and relative body weight, abdominal ...

VLCD compliance and lean body mass.

International journal of obesity, 1990
Very low calorie diets (VLCD) have many advantages, as they are inexpensive, safe and easy to comply with, and give rapid and encouraging weight loss. On the other hand, many patients complain of hunger and constipation. We have shown that these drawbacks can be reduced by the supplementation of 30 g of dietary fibre to VLCD. By the use of a VLCD which

Limb Circumferences and Lean Body Mass

1990
The centile distributions of upper arm circumference (contracted) and calf circumference (contracted) are fully recorded in the tables. Comparisons of the median values for Leeds boys and girls are shown for these two measurements respectively in Figs. 7.1 and 7.2.
