Bioelectrical impedance analysis and anthropometry for the determination of body composition in rats: effects of high-fat and high-sucrose diets.
The PBF is measured by several methods, such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI),
bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA), and X-ray.
The researchers measured body fat using
bioelectrical impedance analysis, in which a very mild electrical signal is sent through the body.
Bioimpedance Analysis (BIA), also known as
bioelectrical impedance analysis, is a method used to measure body composition, which implies the measurement of body fat in relation to lean body mass.
Phase angle from
bioelectrical impedance analysis: population reference values by age, sex, and body mass index.
Standardized phase angle from
bioelectrical impedance analysis as prognostic factor for survival in patients with cancer.
Percentage of body fat was determined using 2 techniques: skinfold measurements and
bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA).
The objectives of this study were to (i) measure preoperative nutritional status using Subjective Global Assessment (SGA), (ii) identify disease-related risk factors for the development of malnutrition, and (iii) measure body composition preoperatively using
bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA).
Associations of Body Mass Index and Percentage Body Fat by
Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis with Cardiovascular Risk Factors in Japanese Male Office Workers.
A study from a cohort of urban men in north India shows that coronary risk factors including hypertension were significantly associated with the level of body-fat percent determined by
bioelectrical impedance analysis in population with low BMI.
