Comparison between Triceps and Subscapular Skinfold Thickness of Japanese Children with respect to Environmental Effects [PDF]

open access: yes
This study was made to predict the extent of environmental effects on triceps and subscapular fat. Subjects comprise 2350 boys and 2219 girls between the ages of 6 and 11 years, who were attending one of eight elementary schools in northern Kyushu of ...

Skinfold Thickness

Pediatrics, 1982
The paper by Heimler et al1 concerning thermal environmental effects on growth and increase in skinfold thickness in premature infants was of interest to us in relation to our own work on macronutrient and energy accretion in the very low-birth-weight preterm infant.

Skinfold Thickness in Neonates

Biology of the Neonate, 2009
Birth weight as an index of neonatal health needs to be supplemented by other objective measurements, particularly in the case of light-for-dates neonates, where inaccuracies in estimates of gestation confound the problem. Skinfold thicknesses were taken using a Harpenden caliper to obtain further indices of neonatal well-being.

Examination of the skinfold compressibility and skinfold thickness relationship

American Journal of Human Biology, 1993
AbstractThis study examined the relationship between skinfold compressibility and skinfold thickness while proposing a 3‐caliper technique for the estimation of uncompressed skinfold thickness. Skinfold and ultrasound measurements of skin‐plus‐adipose tissue were made at seven sites on 15 females (mean age 22.0 yr) and 13 males (mean age 23.2 yr.) The ...

The skinfold thickness in preterm infants

Early Human Development, 1993
The development of the subscapular, triceps and abdominal (suprailiac) skinfolds was studied in 120 healthy preterm infants with a birth weight below 2500 g at the age of 2 weeks, 1 month and 2 months. The skinfolds developed with the age of the infants, no gestational age related differences being noted.

SKIN THICKNESS AND SKINFOLD THICKNESS IN ANOREXIA NERVOSA

British Journal of Dermatology, 1971
SUMMARY.— Skin thickness measured radiographically and skinfold thickness measured by callipers were determined in 6 patients with anorexia nervosa before treatment and after restoration of body weight. Pre-treatment skin thickness measurements fell at the lower limit of normal or actually below this.

Influence of skinfold thickness on heparin absorption

The Lancet, 1991
The absorption of high and low molecular fractions of heparin from the subcutaneous compartment was evaluated in eight healthy males. They were given an intravenous infusion of 4000 U calcium heparin in 4 hours and on another occasion a subcutaneous injection of 12,500 U calcium heparin (washout period of 1 week).

In Reply: Skinfold Thickness

Pediatrics, 1982
We appreciate the critical eyes of Swyer and associates for the detection of our error in units of measurement. On review of our original data (Pediatrics 68:82, 1981), we found that rate of change in skinfold thickness should have been expressed in millimeters per week instead of millimeters per day.

Estimation of obesity in schoolchildren by measuring skinfold thickness

Public Health, 1997
To determine whether skinfold thickness is correlated with degree of overweight, serum levels of cholesterol, and blood pressure in children, 161 boys and 167 girls aged 9 and 10 y underwent physical examinations at three elementary schools in Japan. Triceps skinfold thickness was positively correlated with degree of overweight, atherosclerosis index ...
