Birth Size and Childhood Growth as Determinants of Physical Functioning in Older Age: the Helsinki Birth Cohort Study
(Oxford University Press, 2011)
The study reports on the associations of infant and childhood anthropometric measurements, early growth, and the combined effect of birth weight and childhood body mass index with older age physical functioning among 1,999 ...
Blocking Activin Receptor Ligands Is Not Sufficient to Rescue Cancer-Associated Gut Microbiota : A Role for Gut Microbial Flagellin in Colorectal Cancer and Cachexia?
(MDPI AG, 2019)
Colorectal cancer (CRC) and cachexia are associated with the gut microbiota and microbial surface molecules. We characterized the CRC-associated microbiota and investigated whether cachexia affects the microbiota composition. ...
Blood and skeletal muscle ageing determined by epigenetic clocks and their associations with physical activity and functioning
(Biomed Central, 2021)
The aim of this study was to investigate the correspondence of different biological ageing estimates (i.e. epigenetic age) in blood and muscle tissue and their associations with physical activity (PA), physical function ...
BMI and an anthropometry-based estimate of fat mass percentage are both valid discriminators of cardiometabolic risk: A comparison with DXA and bioimpedance
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2013)
Objective. To determine whether categories of obesity based on BMI and an anthropometry-based estimate of fat mass percentage (FM% equation) have similar discriminative ability for markers of cardiometabolic risk as ...
Body composition and changes in health-related quality of life in older age : a 10-year follow-up of the Helsinki Birth Cohort Study
(Springer, 2020)
PURPOSE:
Most studies examining the associations between body composition and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in older age have been cross-sectional and analyzed only fat or lean mass. Hence, it is poorly known ...
Body composition as a predictor of physical performance in older age : A ten-year follow-up of the Helsinki Birth Cohort Study
(Elsevier Ireland Ltd., 2018)
Background
This study assessed how different measures of body composition predict physical performance ten years later among older adults.
Methods
The participants were 1076 men and women aged 57 to 70 years. Body ...
Body composition in 18 to 88-year-old adults - comparison of multifrequency bioimpedance and dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2014)
Objective -- This study compared bioimpedance analysis (BIA) in the assessment of body composition with dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) in 18- to 88-year-old adults. Design and Methods -- Body composition of 882 ...
Body Composition in Late Midlife as a Predictor of Accelerated Age-associated Deficit-accumulation From Late Midlife into Old Age : A Longitudinal Birth Cohort Study
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2023)
Background
Body mass index (BMI) may not be an optimal predictor of frailty as its constituents, lean and fat mass, may have opposite associations with frailty.
Methods
A linear mixed model analysis was performed in ...
Body composition in male lifelong trained strength, sprint and endurance athletes and healthy age-matched controls
(Frontiers Media SA, 2023)
Introduction: Aging involves many physiological processes that lead to decreases in muscle mass and increases in fat mass. While regular exercise can counteract such negative body composition outcomes, masters athletes ...
Body Image in 13-17 Years Old Adolescents: Gender and Physical Activity Effects
(Hellenic Academy of Physical Education, 2013)
Σκοπός της παρούσας έρευνας, ήταν να εξετάσει πώς διαφοροποιείται η εικόνα του σώματος και η ικανοποίηση της από αυτήν ανάλογα με το φύλο και την ηλικία, αλλά και πώς συνδέεται με τη φυσική δραστηριότητα και το Δείκτη Μάζας ...
