Genetically determined lean mass and dietary response

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, 2020
AbstractWeight loss attenuates many obesity‐related co‐morbidities, but is difficult to sustain with dietary change. Dietary adherence, not macronutrient composition, is a better predictor of weight loss. Weight loss‐induced endocrine changes promote food intake and increase energy efficiency, contributing to the difficulty with dietary adherence and ...

Leucine for Retention of Lean Mass on a Hypocaloric Diet

Journal of Medicinal Food, 2008
As obesity rates continue to climb, there is a pressing need for novel weight loss techniques. However, the energy-restricted diets recommended for weight loss typically result in significant amounts of lean tissue loss, in addition to the desired body fat loss.

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. ).

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.

Beyond lean: an essay (mass production)

IEEE Spectrum, 1993
The authors take issue with the belief that traditional mass production has been superseded by a single new kind of 'lean' organization invented in Japan and now diffusing throughout the advanced countries. They maintain that national differences in corporate strategy and organization will necessarily extend right through production.

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 ...

A nomogram to predict lean body mass in men

The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 1978
A simple three scale nomogram is presented to predict lean body mass in men from two anthropometric measurements: height and the circumference of the flexed biceps. The prediction equation used in constructing the nomogram was established from data collected on 198 USAF aircrewmen.

Importance of Lean Body Mass in the Oncologic Patient

Nutrition in Clinical Practice, 2012
Loss of lean body develops from an imbalance in protein synthesis and catabolism and is associated with a variety of different disease and nondisease states, including severe malnutrition, cachexia, and physiologic age‐related loss (sarcopenia). Loss of lean body mass is prevalent among a significant proportion of the elderly population and has been ...
