Body composition assessment in overweight women: validation of air displacement plethysmography.
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to evaluate the validity and reliability of air displacement plethysmography (ADP) compared to a dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) criterion for body composition measurement in overweight and obese women (BMI ≥ 25·0 kg m(2) ). SUBJECTS/METHODS Twenty-four overweight and obese women (Mean ± SD; Age: 36·6 ± 12·0 years; Height: 166·4 ± 5·8 cm; Weight: 8...
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 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 کاملBody 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 کاملAir displacement plethysmography for estimating body composition changes with weight loss in middle-aged Japanese men.
AIM To examine the degree to which air displacement plethysmography (ADP) can track body composition changes in response to weight loss in obese Japanese men. METHOD 50 men, aged 30-65 years with a mean BMI of 30 kg/m(2), were included in a 3-month weight loss program. Percentage of fat mass (%FM) was determined by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and ADP at baseline and month 3. RESU...
