Fat mass is negatively associated with the physiological ability of tissue to consume oxygen

Motriz: Revista de Educacao Fisica, 2018
Aims: To describe the relationship between variables related to body composition and peak oxygen uptake ( V ˙ O 2peak) and to verify whether fat mass can affect these relationships.

Relative fat mass is a better predictor of dyslipidemia and metabolic syndrome than body mass index [PDF]

Cardiovascular Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2019
Background Relative fat mass (RFM) had been recently developed. We aimed to examine RFM predictability to various cardiometabolic risk factors, compared to BMI. Methods Observational, cohort study, among patients who visited the Rambam Periodic Examinations Institute (RPEI).

Low Fat-Free Mass Index Measured by Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis Correlates With Hematologic Adverse Events in Early-Stage Breast Cancer Patients Receiving Chemotherapy: A Prospective Observational Cohort Study

Technology in Cancer Research & Treatment, 2022
Background: Low muscle mass is associated with worse cancer treatment outcomes. Although dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry or computerized tomography-based analysis have both been widely studied in this clinical setting, studies in the use of ...

Methods to Diagnose Adiposity (Overweight/Obesity) in Children and Avoid Misdiagnosis: Relative Fat Mass vs. Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis

BioMed
Background/Objectives: Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) and dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) are the gold standard to measure fat mass, but they are unavailable in regular consultations. Relative Fat Mass (RFM) and Pediatric Relative Fat Mass

Higher dietary fibre intake is associated with increased skeletal muscle mass and strength in adults aged 40 years and older

Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, 2021
Background Skeletal muscle mass begins to decline from 40 years of age. Limited data suggest that dietary fibre may modify lean body mass (BM), of which skeletal muscle is the largest and most malleable component. We investigated the relationship between

Dietary Protein Intake and Peritoneal Protein Losses in Peritoneal Dialysis Patients

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients lose protein in their waste dialysate, potentially increasing their risk for malnutrition. We wished to determine whether there was any association between losses and dietary protein intake (DPI). Methods DPI was assessed from 24‐h dietary recall using Nutrics software.

Longer time after bariatric surgery and sedentary leisure modify anthropometric parameters, body composition and sarcopenic obesity markers in women

Revista Brasileira de Atividade Física e Saúde, 2017
Sarcopenic Obesity is known as a decrease in the quantity and quality of the skeletal muscle mass and increase in fat mass. It can be measured by the residual appendicular skeletal muscle mass (Ap SMM) based on the difference between actual and predicted

Serum Myonectin Levels Are Positively Associated With Physical Function and Lower Frailty‐Related Limitation in Maintenance Hemodialysis Patients: A Cross‐Sectional Study

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients frequently suffer from frailty, characterized by reduced physical function and poor prognosis. Myokines, such as myonectin, secreted by muscle, are emerging regulators of systemic health. This study investigated the relationship between serum myonectin, adipokines (adiponectin, omentin), and ...
