The accuracy of body composition estimates based on skinfold thickness measurements and bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) is not yet adequately explored in cystic fibrosis (CF). Using DXA as reference method we verified the accuracy of these techniques and identified predictors of body composition specific for CF.One hundred forty-two CF patients (age range: 8–31years) underwent a DXA scan. Body...
The aim of the study was to evaluate the correspondence between body fat mass composition (percentage) measured with dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and estimated by means of skinfold thicknesses (ST) measurement in patients with anorexia nervosa (AN), before and after weight gain.Percentage body fat (%BF) was measured with DXA and estimated by ST measurements using Siri, Brozek, and Heyward...
