Estimates of body composition with dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry in adults.
BACKGROUND Little is known about the distributions of percentage body fat (PBF), total body fat (TBF), and fat-free mass (FFM) in the adult population in the United States. OBJECTIVES We sought to estimate the means and percentile cutoffs of PBF, TBF, and FFM and to assess the differences by sex, age, race-ethnicity, and body mass index in US adults. DESIGN Data from the National Health and...
متن کاملBody composition analysis by dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry in adults with cystic fibrosis.
Assessment of nutritional status is important in cystic fibrosis (CF). We performed body composition analysis by dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) in 12 adults with CF, 7 of them with malnutrition as defined by percentage of ideal body weight (IBW) lower than 90. The DXA allowed for determination of bone body mass (BBM), lean body mass (LBM), and fat body mass (FBM). A deficit in BBM and L...
متن کاملIn vivo validation of whole body composition estimates from dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry.
We validated whole body composition estimates from dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) against estimates from a four-component model to determine whether accuracy is affected by gender, race, athletic status, or musculoskeletal development in young adults. Measurements of body density by hydrostatic weighing, body water by deuterium dilution, and bone mineral by whole body DEXA were obtaine...
متن کاملComparison of Bone Mineral Density Measured by Dual X-ray, Axial Dual-energy Photon X-ray Absorptiometry and Laser Absorptiometry of Calcaneus
The objective of this study was to validate the use of bone mineral measurements of the calcaneus bone by dual X-ray and laser (DXL) in a cross-sectional study carried out in an osteoporosis clinic. Measurements of bone mineral density (BMD) at proximal femur and spine were obtained by dual-energy photon X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA). Osteoporosis was defined by a DEXA T-score <-2.5 at the femora...
متن کاملDual-energy X-ray absorptiometry study of body composition in patients with lipodystrophy.
L ipodystrophies are acquired or inherited disorders characterized by selective or generalized loss of adipose tissue. Affected patients are predisposed to insulin resistance and metabolic complications of insulin resistance (1). Noticeably, patients with acquired or hereditary generalized forms are extremely insulin resistant (2,3). On the other hand, in partial forms the ample phenotypic spec...
