Analysis of the Volume Indices of Extra- and Intra-cellular Fluid Obtained from the Multi-frequency Impedance Technique in Extremities

چکیده
About 60% of the adult human body is fluid. The most of this fluid is inside the cells and called intracellular fluid (ICF) and one third is in the space out side the cells and called extracellular fluid (ECF) (1). Evaluation of the two components of ECF and ICF is important in various disease conditions. The standard method for this purpose in clinical practice is dilution principle using a tracer of isotopes (2), but that method is rather elaborate and there is a need of noninvasive methods with characteristics of safe, not expensive, requiring little operator skill and subject cooperation. The measuring of electrical impedance is considered as one of the methods to fulfill that need, and the application of bioelectrical impedance analysis for that needs started from the measurement of the volume of ECF using a single

Volume-Filling Effects on Sloshing Frequency in Simplified and Explicit Dynamic Finite Element Models of Tank Wagons During Braking and Turning
Numerical analysis of fluid sloshing in tank wagons is amongst essential research ideas that are focused by railway engineers. The free surface of fluid becomes unstable and turns into a dynamic complex non-linear problem for fluid-structure interaction (FSI). In this paper, initially, the dynamic response of the tank, including lateral force analysis and pressure distribution during braking, i...

In this paper, multi-objective optimization of railway wheel web profile using bidirectional evolutionary structural optimization (BESO) algorithm is investigated. Using a finite element software, static analysis of the wheel based on a standard load case, and its modal analysis for finding the fundamental natural frequency is performed. The von Mises stress and critical frequency as the proble...
متن کاملInfluence of Posture and Frequency Modes in Total Body Water Estimation Using Bioelectrical Impedance Spectroscopy in Boys and Adult Males
The aim of the study was to examine differences in total body water (TBW) measured using single-frequency (SF) and multi-frequency (MF) modes of bioelectrical impedance spectroscopy (BIS) in children and adults measured in different postures using the deuterium (2H) dilution technique as the reference. Twenty-three boys and 26 adult males underwent assessment of TBW using the dilution technique...
