Moving on - beyond lean thinking [PDF]
, 2004 Lean Thinking is currently often positioned as the underlying theory of lean production among practitioners and academics, although its originators, Womack and Jones, seem not to have presented it as a theory. This paper endeavors to analyze whether Lean

Pharmacology of manipulating lean body mass [PDF]
Clinical and Experimental Pharmacology and Physiology, 2014 SummaryDysfunction and wasting of skeletal muscle as a consequence of illness decreases the length and quality of life. Currently, there are few, if any, effective treatments available to address these conditions. Hence, the existence of this unmet medical need has fuelled large scientific efforts.

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.
