Neonatal skinfold thickness. Measurement and interpretation at or near term.
Skinfold thickness was measured at five sites in 750 infants. The study population was unselected except that twin pregnancies and the infants of diabetic mothers were excluded, and very preterm infants were under represented. A pilot study had indicated that skinfold measurement was most reproducible at the thigh site. Thigh skinfold correlated better with the sum of other skinfolds than did s...
متن کاملEstimation of body fat in Pakistani adult: A comparison of equations based upon skinfold thickness measurements
OBJECTIVE To compare three different body fats estimation equations using skin fold measurements with bioelectrical impedance analysis. METHODS A total of 130 subjects were included from Department of Endocrinology and Metabolism, Services Hospital, Lahore from 1st April 2016 to 30th Sep. 2016. The triceps, biceps, subscapular, chest, thigh, abdominal, suprailiac skinfold thickness of the sub...
متن کاملAccuracy of a digital skinfold system for measuring skinfold thickness and estimating body fat.
The use of skinfold thickness measurements to evaluate the distribution of subcutaneous adipose tissue and to predict body fat has recognised advantages. However, the different types of skinfold calliper available present limitations that make them unattractive and perhaps less used in daily practice. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the accuracy and functionality of a new digit...
متن کاملThe assessment of the body fat percentage by skinfold thickness measurements in childhood and young adolescence.
The relationship of skinfold thicknesses to body density and of skinfold thicknesses to densitometrically determined body fat was evaluated in a group of 378 boys and girls, aged 7-20 years. According to their maturation level, they were divided into a prepubertal, a pubertal and a post-pubertal group. In each maturation group boys were older, had higher body-weights and body heights, higher bo...
متن کاملAssessment of total body fat in infancy from skinfold thickness measurements.
A formula is given, allowing a value for total body fat to be calculated from skinfold thickness measurements at two sites (subscapular and triceps), in conjunction with nine body dimensions. For newborn infants total body fat so calculated accorded satisfactorily with published data from cadaver analyses. The formula has been tentatively applied to infants up to the age of 40 weeks, and to pre...
