Does body adiposity index evaluate percentage of body fat?
Introduction: The purpose of the present study was to determine whether the novel marker, body adiposity index (BAI), is accurate to measure percentage of body fat (PBF). Materials and methods: Seventy-eight males were undergone anthropometric examination. PBF was calculated by BAI and measured using InBody 3.0. Results: Significant correlation was found between BAI and PBF (r = 0.751; P < ...
متن کاملMacular pigment and percentage of body fat.
PURPOSE To investigate the relationship between percentage of body fat and macular pigment (MP) optical density. METHODS One hundred healthy subjects of ages between 22 and 60 years volunteered to participate in this study. MP optical density was measured psychophysically, serum lutein and zeaxanthin were quantified by HPLC, and dietary intake of lutein and zeaxanthin was assessed using a val...
متن کاملWhole-body MRI for quantification of adipose tissue depots
Analysis of body composition of human beings increases the understanding of the complex relationship between body composition and metabolism in normal as well as in pathological conditions. The correlation between central obesity and type II diabetes mellitus is a strong factor bringing attention to this field. The large variability seen in human body composition and the importance of regional ...
متن کاملEstimating DXA total body fat percentage by lipometer subcutaneous adipose tissue thicknesses.
DXA is an accepted reference method to estimate body composition. However several difficulties in the applicability exist. The equipment is rather expensive, not portable, impractical for measurement of big study populations and it provides a minimal amount of ionizing radiation exposure. The optical device Lipometer (EU Pat.No. 0516251) provides non-invasive, quick, precise and safe measuremen...
