Validation of bioelectrical impedance analysis in Ethiopian adults with HIV
Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) is an inexpensive, quick and non-invasive method to determine body composition. Equations used in BIA are typically derived in healthy individuals of European descent. BIA is specific to health status and ethnicity and may therefore provide inaccurate results in populations of different ethnic origin and health status. The aim of the present study was to t...
متن کاملExternal cross-validation of bioelectrical impedance analysis for the assessment of body composition in Korean adults
Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) models must be validated against a reference method in a representative population sample before they can be accepted as accurate and applicable. The purpose of this study was to compare the eight-electrode BIA method with DEXA as a reference method in the assessment of body composition in Korean adults and to investigate the predictive accuracy and applic...
متن کاملBioelectrical impedance analysis revisited.
Although total limb volume measurements are used to track the progress of lymphedema and its treatment, these measurements can be confounded by changes other than fluid excess namely muscle or fat gain. Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) is a technique that specifically quantifies both total body fluid and extracellular fluid in extremities. Whereas BIA has potential as a quick, inexpensive...
متن کاملComparison of Muscle Mass, Total Body Water and Total Body Protein in Type II Diabetics with Healthy Matched Adults by Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis
Background: Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) is a new and rapid technique to validate body composition. Several studies have used this technique to evaluate body compositions, such as muscle mass, in diabetic patients, but the results are very different. This may due the differences between diabetic patients and control group. Therefore, this study aimed to compare the muscle mass of diab...
متن کاملValidation of bioelectrical impedance analysis in patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.
BACKGROUND Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a neurologic disease with an unfavorable prognosis that may be accompanied by malnutrition or overweight. Nutritional status is difficult to evaluate in these patients because of their physical limitations and the asymmetry of their disease involvement. Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA), which enables bedside analysis of body compartments, ...
