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 کاملChanges in single skinfold thickness in 100 km ultramarathoners
BACKGROUND Changes in single skinfold thickness and body fat have been investigated in ultraswimmers and ultracyclists, but not in ultrarunners. The present study investigated the changes in single skinfold thickness during a 100 km ultramarathon. METHODS Firstly, we investigated associations between prerace preparation and prerace body composition and, secondly, changes in single skinfold th...
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...
