Effect of Skinfold Thickness on Transcutaneous Bilirubin Measurements

Neonatology, 1993
We studied the effect of skinfold thickness on the correlation between serum total bilirubin level and transcutaneous bilirubin (TcB) readings. Skinfold thickness measurements were taken at 1–4 h of age. Serum total bilirubin levels and TcB readings were obtained at 1–4 (first) and 44–56 h of age (discharge).

Skinfold Thickness and Adiposity Index in Premature Infants

Neonatology, 1987
In order to assess the validity of the weight per square of length ratio as an index of adiposity during the neonatal period, 37 premature infants (gestational age, mean ± SD, = 31.5 ± 1.1 weeks, birthweight, mean ± SD, =1.448 ± 147 g) were studied for weight, length and skinfold thickness at 5 sites (biceps, triceps, subscapular, suprailiac and ...

Validity of Skinfold Thickness Measures of Formerly Obese Adults

Journal of Cardiopulmonary Rehabilitation, 1986
To assess the validity of skinfold thickness estimates of body fatness in formerly morbid obese adults, 23 patients (17 women, 6 men) who had completed a protein-sparing modified fast were studied. Mean +/- SD weight loss was 60.7 +/- 20.6 kg for men and 42.6 +/- 11.5 kg for women. Body density and percent body fatness were determined after weight loss

Skinfold Thickness in Infancy in Relation to Birthweight

Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 1973
SUMMARYMeasurement of skinfold thickness of 200 infants were made at the biceps, triceps, subscapular and suprailiac sites at the ages of one month, three months, six months, nine months and 12 months. The results show that between one and three months boys with birthweights below 3.2kg have a significantly greater increase in skinfold thickness at the

Skinfold thickness and cardiovascular risk factors.

American journal of epidemiology, 1987
The relation of blood pressure, serum cholesterol, plasma fibrinogen, and coagulation factor VIIc with skinfold thickness at four sites (forearm, triceps, suprailiac, and subscapular) was examined in 2,948 white participants in the Northwick Park Heart Study.

[Skinfold thickness in a group of Roman schoolchildren].

Minerva pediatrica, 1990
Triceps, biceps, subscapular and supra-iliac skinfold measurements were taken on 871 children, aged 7-14, in three Roman schools. Girls have larger skinfolds than boys; the values at every site increase with age. Boys present an increase in skinfold measurements until 11 years, then a decrease, more marked at 14 years.

Skinfold Thickness in Sri Lankan Children

2012
Skinfold thickness has been used as a method of assessment of body composition. It reflects the subcutaneous fat distribution of body. Assessment of the SFT is useful in nutritional assessment as well as in assessing changes in the distribution of fat in the body during treatment of certain illnesses.
