The assessment of extra-, intracellular and total body water (ECW, ICW, TBW) is important in many clinical situations. Bioimpedance spectroscopy (BIS) has advantages over dilution methods terms usability reproducibility, but a careful analysis reveals systematic deviations extremes composition morbid states. Recent publications stress the need to set up validate BIS equations wide variety healthy subjects patients with fluid imbalance. This paper presents two new for determination ECW ICW...
Regular consumption of flavonoids may reduce the risk for CVD. However, effects individual flavonoids, example, quercetin, remain unclear. The present study was undertaken to examine quercetin supplementation on blood pressure, lipid metabolism, markers oxidative stress, inflammation, and body composition in an at-risk population ninety-three overweight or obese subjects aged 25–65 years with metabolic syndrome traits. Subjects were randomised receive 150 mg quercetin/d a double-blinded,...
Background: The use of bioelectrical impedance phase angle has been recommended as a prognostic tool in the clinical setting, but published reference data bases are discrepant and incomplete (eg, they do not consider body mass index [BMI], lacking for children). Methods: Phase values stratified by age, sex, BMI were generated large German base 15,605 children adolescents 214,732 adults, determinants assessed. applied to 3 groups patients compared with previously from United States...
Objective: To compare body composition determined by bioelectrical impedance (BIA) consumer devices against criterion estimates whole magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) in healthy normal weight, overweight obese adults. Methods: In 106 adults (54 females, 52 males, age 54.2 ± 16.1 years, BMI 25.8 4.4 kg/m2) fat mass (FM), skeletal muscle (SM), total bone-free lean (TBBLM), level of visceral (VF) were estimated 3 single-frequency bipedal (foot-to-foot)...
Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) provides noninvasive measures of skeletal muscle mass (SMM) and visceral adipose tissue (VAT). This study (i) analyzes the impact conventional wrist-ankle vs segmental technology standing supine position on BIA equations (ii) compares validation against magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA). One hundred thirty-six healthy Caucasian adults (70 men, 66 women; age 40±12 years) were measured by a phase-sensitive multifrequency...
The clinical relevance of malnutrition and hypermetabolism in end-stage liver disease, as well their effects on survival after transplantation (LTx), are largely unknown. This study investigates the prognostic value nutritional metabolic parameters obtained before LTx for LTx. One hundred fifty patients with disease undergoing were assessed prospectively followed a mean period 46 +/- 16 months All randomized into group validation group, each comprising 75 patients. Body composition analysis...
Summary: Although malnutrition and wasting are known features of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection, their incidence possible association with immunologic impairment largly unknown, as is the prognostic value nutritional state. Nutritional, clinical, parameters were measured in 100 outpatients different stages HIV infection. In addition, 39 patients AIDS prospectively followed for a mean period 343 (range, 53–650) days. Sixty-three percent showed evidence malnutrition, 21% suffered...
ABSTRPlCT Many clinicians subjectively feel that cirrhotic patients frequently have clinical signs of hypermetabolism. However, it is unknown whether hypermetabolism a constant feature chronic liver disease, corresponds to destruction and repair or prognostic value.
