Utility of multi‐frequency bioelectrical impedance compared to deuterium dilution for assessment of total body water
Principle/Accuracy | TBW | Lindsey J. ANDERSON et al. | 2015 | USA | Nutrition & Dietetics
Aim Multi‐frequency bioelectrical impedance analysis (MF‐BIA) may provide a quick, cost‐efficient method of total body water (TBW) assessment. We compared TBW estimates from the B iospace I n B ody 520, 720, and S 10 MF‐BIA devices to TBW estimates from isotopic deuterium dilution (D 2 O). Methods TBW was measured in 25 men and 25 women, 18–49 years, 73.6±15.4 kg on each of the three devices and from D 2 O analysis. Results All MF‐BIA devices significantly overestimated TBW compared to D 2 O TBW for men (4.7–5.4 kg …
Reliability and validity of various laboratory methods of body composition assessment in young adults
Principle/Accuracy | FFM, BFM, PBF | M. M. Schubert et al. | 2018 | USA | Clinical Physiology and Functional Imaging
Accurate measures of body composition (BC) are essential for performance and health. In addition to accuracy, BC measures should be practical and be minimally invasive to maximize their utility. The purpose of the present study was to compare the day‐to‐day variability and validity of four common laboratory‐based body composition assessments to a criterion four‐compartment model. Dual x‐ray absorptiometry (DXA), air displacement plethysmography (BP), multi‐frequency bioelectrical impedance (MF‐BIA) and underwater …
Assessment of body composition by dual‐energy X‐ray absorptiometry, bioimpedance analysis and anthropometrics in children: the
Principle/Accuracy | LBM, PBF, BFM | Tompuri TT et al. | 2015 | Finland | Clinical Physiology and Functional Imaging
Objective and methods We compared I n B ody720 segmental multifrequency bioimpedance analysis (SMF‐BIA) with L unar P rodigy A dvance dual‐energy X‐ray absorptiometry (DXA) in assessment of body composition among 178 predominantly prepubertal children. Segmental agreement analysis of body compartments was carried out, and inter‐relationships of anthropometric and other measures of body composition were defined. Moreover, the relations of different reference criteria for excess body fat were evaluated …
Introduction of Fall Risk Assessment (FRA) system and cross-sectional validation among community-dwelling older adults
Principle/Accuracy | Segmental FFM | Woo-Chul Park, et al. | 2019 | Korea | Annals of Rehabilitation Medicine
Objective To predict the risk of falls, Fall Risk Assessment (FRA) system has been newly developed to measure multi-systemic balance control among community-dwelling older adults. The aim of this study was to examine the association between FRA and fall-related physical performance tests. Methods A total of 289 community-dwelling adults aged 65 years and older participated in this cross-sectional study. All participants underwent FRA test and physical performance tests such as Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB), Berg …
