The World Health Organization has recommended 5 g/day as dietary reference intakes for salt. In Japan, the averages for men and women were 11.0 g/day and 9.3 g/day, respectively. Recently, it was reported that amounts of sodium accumulation in skeletal muscles of older people were significantly higher than those in younger people. The purpose of th...
A Multidomain Approach to Assessing the Convergent and Concurrent Validity of a Mobile Application When Compared to Conv...
Published in Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Determining body composition via mobile application may circumvent limitations of conventional methods. However, the accuracy of many technologies remains unknown. This investigation assessed the convergent and concurrent validity of a mobile application (LS) that employs 2-dimensional digital photography (LS2D) and 3-dimensional photonic scanning ...
The mediating role of adiposity in the longitudinal association between cardiorespiratory fitness and blood pressure in ...
Published in European journal of clinical investigation
The aim of this prospective cohort study was to examine whether the association between the cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) at baseline and blood pressure (BP) at follow-up is mediated by adiposity in adolescents. The sample comprised 734 adolescents (349 girls) aged 12-18 years from the LabMed Physical Activity Cohort Study. The variables of inter...
Development of an Easy-to-Use Prediction Equation for Body Fat Percentage Based on BMI in Overweight and Obese Lebanese ...
Published in Diagnostics
An accurate estimation of body fat percentage (BF%) in patients who are overweight or obese is of clinical importance. In this study, we aimed to develop an easy-to-use BF% predictive equation based on body mass index (BMI) suitable for individuals in this population. A simplified prediction equation was developed and evaluated for validity using a...
Eating-Disordered Behavior in Adolescents: Associations with Body Image, Body Composition and Physical Activity
Published in International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health
Eating disorders (EDs) represent a disparate group of mental health problems that significantly impair physical health or psychosocial functioning. The aim of this study was to present some evidence about the prevalence of eating-disordered behavior (EDB) in adolescents, and explore its associations with body image (BI), body composition (BC) and p...
Body Fat Mediates Association between Active Living and Health among Adolescents
Published in International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health
The aim of this study was to explore the association of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity and organized leisure-time activities with self-rated health among adolescents and whether these associations are mediated by body fat percentage. We used data on 888 adolescents (mean age 12.97, SD 1.20, 56.0% boys) from the Health Behaviour in School-ag...
The Effect of Pubertal Stage on the Concentrations of the Novel Adipomyokine, Irisin, in Male Adolescents
Published in Journal of clinical research in pediatric endocrinology
Irisin is a recently discovered protein and is defined as an adipomyokine. The relation of irisin with carbohydrate metabolism and other hormone parameters have been investigated. However, studies evaluating the relationship between irisin and puberty are limited and inconclusive. The aim was to evaluate serum concentrations of irisin during differ...
Effect of Body Fat Percentage on Muscle Damage Induced by High-Intensity Eccentric Exercise
Published in International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health
This study aimed to investigate the impact of percent body fat (%BF) on muscle damage after high-intensity eccentric exercise. Thirty healthy male undergraduates (mean age: 22.0 ± 2 years, height: 176.9 ± 5 cm, weight: 75.8 ± 11.6 kg) participated in this study, and they were classified according to their %BF into a high %fat group (HFG, ≥20%, n = ...
