Does body adiposity index evaluate percentage of body fat?
Introduction: The purpose of the present study was to determine whether the novel marker, body adiposity index (BAI), is accurate to measure percentage of body fat (PBF). Materials and methods: Seventy-eight males were undergone anthropometric examination. PBF was calculated by BAI and measured using InBody 3.0. Results: Significant correlation was found between BAI and PBF (r = 0.751; P < ...
متن کاملDoes the body adiposity index (BAI) apply to paediatric populations?
OBJECTIVE Validation of body adiposity index (BAI) in a paediatrics sample; and to develop, if necessary, a valid BAI for paediatrics (i.e. BAIp). METHODS A total of 1615 children (52% boys) aged 5-12 years underwent anthropometry. Their body composition was assessed using a foot-to-foot bioimpedance. The validity of BAI = (Hip circumference/Height(1.5)) - 18 was tested by combining correlati...

all in-flight medical emergencies. This may be redundant because each airline’s medical department keeps a record of emergencies and their outcome. If an emergency can be stabilized sufficiently to allow the flight to proceed without diversion, it saves the airline money, and for this reason if no other, there is a strong motivation to provide a truly useful kit. The authors also recommended a ...
متن کاملBody adiposity index performance in estimating body fat in a sample of severely obese Brazilian patients
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES The body adiposity index (BAI) estimates the amount of body fat (BF) in humans. In Mexican-American and African-American populations, BAI has performed better than body mass index (BMI). The aim of this study was to evaluate the performance of BAI in estimating percentage (BF%) in severely obese Brazilian patients, with air displacement plethysmography (ADP) used as the re...
متن کاملComparison of Body Adiposity Index (BAI) and Body Mass Index (BMI) with Estimations of % Body Fat in Clinically Severe Obese Women
OBJECTIVE Body adiposity index (BAI), a new surrogate measure of body fat (hip circumference/(height(1.5) - 18)), has been proposed as an alternative to body mass index (BMI). We compared BAI with BMI, and each of them with laboratory measures of body fat-derived from bioimpedance analysis (BIA), air displacement plethysmography (ADP), and dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) in clinically se...
