Reference Standards for Lean Mass Measures Using GE Dual Energy X-Ray Absorptiometry in Caucasian Adults

open access: yes, 2017
Body composition assessments commonly focus predominantly on fat mass, however lean mass (LM) measurements also provide useful information regarding clinical and nutritional status.

The associations of leg lean mass with foot pain, posture and function in the Framingham foot study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Background: Foot disorders are common in older adults and associated with impaired lower extremity function. Reduced muscle mass may play a role in the etiology of foot disorders and consequent poor function.

Succinylcholine dosage based on lean body mass [PDF]

open access: yesCanadian 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

Association between insulin resistance, lean mass and muscle torque/force in proximal versus distal body parts in healthy young men [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Objectives:The purpose of this study was to investigate whether there is already an association of insulin resistance (IR) with muscle mass and –force/torque in an adult population and whether this relationship is the same in distal and proximal body ...

Collateral fattening: when a deficit in lean body mass drives overeating [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In his last review entitled “Some Adventures in Body Composition,” Gilbert Forbes reminded us that “lean body mass and body fat are in a sense companions.” To what extent the lean body mass (or fat-free mass) component in this companionship impacts on

Changes in Body Composition in Children and Young People Undergoing Treatment for Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ongoing evidence indicates increased risk of sarcopenic obesity among children and young people (CYP) with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), often beginning early in treatment, persisting into survivorship. This review evaluates current literature on body composition in CYP with ALL during and after treatment.

Association between lean mass and the risk of metabolic syndrome in Korean children and adolescents: data from the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination survey

open access: yesEndocrine Journal
Skeletal muscle is considered an endocrine and paracrine organ that has metabolic effects, and several studies have shown a positive association between muscle mass and insulin sensitivity.

Collateral fattening in body composition autoregulation: its determinants and significance for obesity predisposition [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Collateral fattening refers to the process whereby excess fat is deposited as a result of the body’s attempt to counter a deficit in lean mass through overeating. Its demonstration and significance to weight regulation and obesity can be traced to work

Disordered but rhythmic—the role of intrinsic protein disorder in eukaryotic circadian timing

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Unstructured domains known as intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) are present in nearly every part of the eukaryotic core circadian oscillator. IDRs enable many diverse inter‐ and intramolecular interactions that support clock function. IDR conformations are highly tunable by post‐translational modifications and environmental conditions, which ...

The effect of pre-resection obesity on post-resection body composition after 75% small bowel resection in rats

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
In patients with short bowel syndrome, an elevated pre-resection Body Mass Index may be protective of post-resection body composition. We hypothesized that rats with diet-induced obesity would lose less lean body mass after undergoing massive small bowel
