Body fat and fat-free mass inter-relationships: Forbes's theory revisited.
A theoretical equation was developed by Forbes that quantifies the fat-free proportion of a weight change as a function of the initial body fat. However, Forbes's equation was strictly valid only for infinitesimal weight changes. Here, I extended Forbes's equation to account for the magnitude and direction of macroscopic body weight changes. The new equation was also re-expressed in terms of an...

متن کاملthe effect of body fat mass and fat free mass on migraine headache.
background: obesity seems to be associated to migraine headache. increase in body fat, especially in gluteofemoral region, elevates adiponectin and leptin secretion which in turn impair inflammatory processes that could be contributing to migraine risk. this study was designed to assess the relationship between body composition and risk of migraine for the first time. methods: in this cross-sec...
متن کاملFactors that alter body fat, body mass, and fat-free mass in pediatric obesity.
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to quantify the effects of exercise treatment programs on changes in body mass, fat-free mass, and body fat in obese children and adolescents. METHODS By using the meta-analytic approach, studies that met the following criteria were included in our analyses: 1) at least six subjects per group; 2) subject groups consisting of children in the 5- to 17-yr ag...
متن کاملSerum creatinine and fat-free mass (lean body mass).
using this multiplex-PCR assay, suggests that the 22 and 22 alleles are much less common than the 22 allele in these populations (data not shown). These results are in agreement with the findings of Eng et al. (4 ). With the exception of the 22 total deletion spanning .300 kb of the a-globin cluster that was described in a Chinese family (3, 9), this multiplex-PCR assay detects all described So...
