Body Composition in Adolescents With Anorexia Nervosa
Body Mass Index (BMI) is currently the most widely recommended parameter for identifying underweight subjects. Among eating disorder diseases, anorexia nervosa (AN) is the one with the highest mortality rate and with relapses between 12 and 27%. To date, recovery programs allow approximately 40% of subjects to achieve recovery, 30% …
Body Composition, Frailty, and Function in Rehabilitation
The investigators are investigating if body composition measures - in particular muscle mass, body fat, and something called the phase angle - are able to reliably predict functional outcomes for patients who are in an acute hospital for inpatient rehabilitation. The investigators also want to see if age and frailty …
Body Composition, Growth, and Maturation of Triathletes
The goal of this observational study is to determine if physical activity and the adherence to a Mediterranean diet have a relationship with body composition, growth, and maturation status in youth triathletes. The main question it aims to answer is: • Is body composition (fat and muscle) determined primarily by …
Ultrasound Detection of Body Composition in Critical Care
Objective assessment of the Changes in body composition of critically ill patients is very valuable. Ultrasound stands as a solution due to its portability, bedside availability, and radiation-free technology. Those criteria are crucial for critically ill obstetrics and gynecological cases.
Comparison of Body Composition Changes With Weight Loss Interventions
This study is being done to compare the effects of a newer class of weight loss medications to weight loss surgery on the body's muscle, metabolism, and side effects over time. People with severe obesity often lose weight using either medications like GLP-1 receptor agonists (such as semaglutide or tirzepatide) …
