A correct diagnosis of obesity requires estimating body composition since it is linked to excess fat. Therefore it is necessary to have practical and sensitive methods of measurement. The aim of this study was to develop and validate bioelectrical impedance (BIA) and anthropometric equations to estimate ...

One of the goals of hemodialysis is to maintain normal hydration status in ESRD patients.Pre hemodialysis systolic blood pressure is usually used as a clinical parameter of hydration status and to set ultrafiltration rate before Hd. It is unclear how much pre-Hd SBP correlated with hydration status. The ...
Se efectuó un estudio para comparar entre sí 3 ecuaciones para la estimación de la masa libre de grasa --seleccionadas aleatoriamente de la bibliografía sobre el tema-- y estas, a su vez, con aquella estimada a partir del criterio clínico. Para esto se tuvieron en cuenta los valores no corregidos y ...
Abstract Objective: To verify if the connection of electrodes for heart and transcutaneous oxygen monitoring interfere with the measurement of electrical bioimpedance in preterm newborns. Methods: This was a prospective, blinded, controlled, cross-sectional, crossover study that assessed and compared p...
