Body composition by air-displacement plethysmography by using predicted and measured thoracic gas volumes.
The BOD POD, a new air-displacement plethysmograph for measuring human body composition, utilizes the inverse relationship between pressure and volume (Boyle's law) to measure body volume directly. The quantity of air in the lungs during tidal breathing, the average thoracic gas volume (Vtg), is also measured by the BOD POD by using a standard plethysmographic technique. Alternatively, the BOD ...
متن کاملEffect of short schemes on body composition measurements using Air-Displacement Plethysmography
BACKGROUND Air-displacement plethysmography (ADP) is becoming a popular method to assess body composition. Several studies have shown certain types of clothing can affect measurements of body density, however no study has specifically investigated the effect of cotton gym shorts and spandex bicycle shorts on body density. METHODS Thirty-seven males (23.0 +/- 3.2 yr., 177.3 +/- 5.4 cm., 74.8 +...
متن کاملAssessment of body composition by air-displacement plethysmography: influence of body temperature and moisture
BACKGROUND: To investigate the effect of body temperature and moisture on body fat (%fat), volume and density by air-displacement plethysmography (BOD POD). METHODS: %fat, body volume and density by the BOD POD before (BOD PODBH) and immediately following hydrostatic weighing (BOD PODFH) were performed in 32 healthy females (age (yr) 33 +/- 11, weight (kg) 64 +/- 14, height (cm) 167 +/- 7). Bod...
متن کاملWhole body air displacement plethysmography compared with hydrodensitometry for body composition analysis.
AIMS To assess the acceptability and feasibility of whole body air displacement plethysmography in children and to determine its precision and agreement with hydrodensitometry, an appropriate reference method. METHODS Age specific two component model equations were used to predict fat mass from body density in 22 children aged 8-12 years and in 10 adults for comparison of methods. Precision f...
متن کاملAlternate-day fasting in nonobese subjects: effects on body weight, body composition, and energy metabolism.
BACKGROUND Prolonged dietary restriction increases the life span in rodents. Some evidence suggests that alternate-day fasting may also prolong the life span. OBJECTIVE Our goal was to determine whether alternate-day fasting is a feasible method of dietary restriction in nonobese humans and whether it improves known biomarkers of longevity. DESIGN Nonobese subjects (8 men and 8 women) faste...
