Bioelectrical impedance analysis measurements of total body water and extracellular water in healthy elderly subjects

Abstract: OBJECTIVE: To address whether: (1) bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) can provide precise and accurate estimates of total body water (TBW) and extracellular water (ECW) in healthy elderly subjects, that display ageinduced changes in body composition, (2) BIA models are improved by introducing variables related to geometrical body-shape and osmolarity. DESIGN: Cross-validation of available BIA models and models developed in the study. SUBJECTS: 58 healthy elderly subjects (31 women, 27 men, 66.8 AE 4.7 y, m… Show more

“…The body fat and lean body mass were measured by tetrapolar bioelectrical impedance analysis (InBody version 3.0; InBody, Seoul, Republic of Korea). Bioelectrical impedance analysis measures two parameters, fat and lean tissue, using empirically derived formulae, which were validated in earlier studies (17,18) and were found to correlate well with underwater weighing, except with extremely obese subjects. Smoking status was divided into three categories: current smokers, ex-smokers, and never smokers.…”

“…This finding suggests that a high amount of visceral fat could have an important role in the development of diabetes in Asian women with GDM even though they are not obese by the usual BMI criteria. Body fatness can now be evaluated by more technologically advanced methods such as bioelectrical impedance or computed tomography (CT) (24,25), but these methods remain largely untested in women with a history of GDM. Postpartum insulin sensitivity and body composition, especially visceral fat amount, have not been assessed systematically to determine their combined role in the development of impaired glucose metabolism in women with a history of GDM.…”
