Comparison of air-displacement plethysmography with hydrostatic weighing and bioelectrical impedance analysis for the assessment of body composition in healthy adults.
BACKGROUND Over the past decade, considerable attention has been paid to accurately measuring body composition in diverse populations. Recently, the use of air-displacement plethysmography (AP) was proposed as an accurate, comfortable, and accessible method of body-composition analysis. OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to compare measurements of percentage body fat (%BF) by AP and 2 ot...
متن کاملComparison of air displacement plethysmography to hydrostatic weighing for estimating total body density in children
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to examine the accuracy of total body density and percent body fat (% fat) using air displacement plethysmography (ADP) and hydrostatic weighing (HW) in children. METHODS Sixty-six male and female subjects (40 males: 12.4 +/- 1.3 yrs, 47.4 +/- 14.8 kg, 155.4 +/- 11.9 cm, 19.3 +/- 4.1 kg/m2; 26 females: 12.0 +/- 1.9 yrs, 41.4 +/- 7.7 kg, 152.1 +/- 8.9 c...
متن کاملComparison of Muscle Mass, Total Body Water and Total Body Protein in Type II Diabetics with Healthy Matched Adults by Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis
Background: Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) is a new and rapid technique to validate body composition. Several studies have used this technique to evaluate body compositions, such as muscle mass, in diabetic patients, but the results are very different. This may due the differences between diabetic patients and control group. Therefore, this study aimed to compare the muscle mass of diab...
متن کاملComparison of Bioelectrical Impedance and Skinfolds with Hydrodensitometry in the Assessment of Body Composition in Healthy Young Adults
Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) is a widely used method for estimating body composition, yet issues concerning its validity persist in the literature. The purpose of this study was to validate percentage of body fat (BF) values estimated from BIA and skinfold (SF) with those obtained from hydrodensitometry (HD). Percent BF values measured via hand-to-hand BIA (BIAH), foot-to-foot BIA (BI...
متن کاملExternal cross-validation of bioelectrical impedance analysis for the assessment of body composition in Korean adults
Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) models must be validated against a reference method in a representative population sample before they can be accepted as accurate and applicable. The purpose of this study was to compare the eight-electrode BIA method with DEXA as a reference method in the assessment of body composition in Korean adults and to investigate the predictive accuracy and applic...
