The purpose of this study was to investigate the influence age, ethnicity, and sex on body fat percentage (BF%) threshold, point above which visceral adipose tissue (VAT) increases more rapidly. Participants were 1,756 females 1,455 males, 18-75 years who had a dual X-ray absorptiometry scan. Using segmented linear regression models for each ethnicity category, BF% thresholds identified. were: Asian 29.2%, Black 35.6%, Hispanic 31.7%, White 34.2%. For they 25.3%, 23.9%, 24.3%, 22.8%....
PURPOSE: It has been shown that visceral adipose tissue (VAT) does not increase linearly with an in total body fat percentage (BF%). Instead, a BF% threshold was identified above which VAT increases more rapidly. The primary purpose of this study to investigate the effect age, ethnicity, and sex on at accumulation significantly. METHODS: A convenience sample 3,211 (1,756 females 1,455 males) participants, 18-75 years who had dual X-ray absorptiometry scan conducted Fitness Institute Texas...
