Comparison 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 کاملBody cell mass index in children: interpretation of total body potassium results.
Body cell mass (BCM) is a valuable measure of functional nutritional status in children. As BCM is related to body size, it is essential that BCM is adjusted for stature when interpreting BCM data in children. Our aim was to examine the relationship between height and BCM in healthy children to determine the power by which height should be raised to adjust BCM for stature. This cross-sectional ...
متن کاملPrediction of total body water in infants and children.
BACKGROUND In paediatric clinical practice treatment is often adjusted in relation to body size, for example the calculation of pharmacological and dialysis dosages. In addition to use of body weight, for some purposes total body water (TBW) and surface area are estimated from anthropometry using equations developed several decades previously. Whether such equations remain valid in contemporary...
متن کاملBody cell mass measured by total body potassium in normal-weight and obese men and women.
OBJECTIVE Total body potassium (TBK) concentration is linearly correlated with the size of the body cell mass (BCM). The aim of this study was to compare BCM in normal-weight and obese individuals. METHODS 271 individuals (207 males, 64 females), 20 to 67 years of age, participated in this study. Subjects were separated by body mass index (BMI): BMI < 25 kg/m(2) (BMI-L) and BMI > 25 kg/m(2) (...
متن کاملTotal body nitrogen and its relation to body potassium and fat-free mass in healthy subjects.
1. The amount of lean tissue in the body can be assessed by measuring total body nitrogen, total body potassium or fat-free mass. To compare these techniques we have measured total body nitrogen, total body potassium and fat-free mass in 91 healthy subjects (62 males, 29 females). 2. Total body nitrogen in the women and civilian men agreed closely with the few values reported previously and was...
