El síndrome de Down (SD) es un trastorno genético que conlleva una serie de problemas de salud, entre ellos, una reducción de la capacidad cardiorrespiratoria. En el caso de las personas con SD, resulta complicado conseguir una evaluación precisa de la composición corporal, debido a su singular morfología. Sin embargo, se trata de un componente crucial para la detección precoz de la obesidad y para el diseño de intervenciones específicas sobre los hábitos. Participaron en el estudio cuatro corredores varones con SD, que se sometieron a mediciones antropométricas y al análisis vectorial de impedancia bioeléctrica (modalidades clásica y específica) antes y después de completar la carrera de 14 kilómetros. Se emplearon varias ecuaciones para estimar la composición corporal. Asimismo, se hizo un análisis del somatotipo y se compararon los cambios bioeléctricos que provocó la carrera. Se reveló una variabilidad considerable en la composición corporal y el rendimiento en carrera de las personas con SD. Las diversas ecuaciones para estimar la masa grasa arrojaron resultados variables (del 4.2 al 33.3 %). En particular, se observó un patrón único en cada participante en cuanto a la cantidad de líquidos. El Participante 1 destacó con un ángulo de fase marcadamente alto (9.8°), mientras que los demás obtuvieron valores medios inferiores (4.5-6.3°). El análisis del vector de impedancia bioeléctrica indicó una pérdida normal de líquidos durante la carrera (T2 = 92.2; p < .0001). Resultó sorprendente que el Participante 1, el cual consiguió el menor tiempo de carrera, experimentase la pérdida de líquidos más significativa, pero mostrase una mayor retención de agua intracelular. Este estudio subraya la importancia de diseñar métodos de evaluación de la composición corporal adaptados a las personas con SD. El diseño de herramientas de evaluación precisas contribuirá a mejorar el bienestar de esta población en su búsqueda de estilos de vida activos. Estas conclusiones arrojan luz sobre la compleja relación entre composición corporal, hidratación y rendimiento en personas con SD.

Introduction: in colorectal cancer (CRC) surgery, preoperative nutritional factors are often overlooked or underestimated. This situation represents a significant deficiency that may negatively affect patients' postoperative recovery processes. Objective: the objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of preoperative malnutrition, sarcopenia, obesity, and dietary inflammatory potential on early postoperative outcomes in CRC. Methods: preoperative sarcopenia was identified using European Working Group on Sarcopenia in Older People (EWGSOP2) criteria based on skeletal muscle obtained from computed tomography (CT) scans, and malnutrition was identified using Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition (GLIM) criteria. Visceral and subcutaneous obesity were assessed using CT scans. The energy-adjusted dietary inflammatory index (E-DII) was calculated from dietary records. Results: a total of 121 patients were included in the study, and 45.5 % of them were malnourished according to GLIM, 15.7 % were sarcopenic according to EWGSOP2. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that sarcopenia [OR = 3.973 (1.028-15.353), p = 0.043], malnutrition [OR = 3.954 (1.479-10.575), p = 0.006], and E-DII [OR = 4.955 (1.397-17.571), p = 0.013] were independent risk factors for complications. Sarcopenia [OR = 6.894 (1.080-43.998), p = 0.041] was also risk factor for long-term hospitalization. Conclusion: a comprehensive evaluation of preoperative nutrition and related factors in CRC surgery, along with timely interventions, has the potential to significantly reduce postoperative complications and length of hospital stays.

The aim of this study was to determine the effects 12 weeks Step aerobics program on anthropometric characteristics and body composition in young females. A total of 94 female participants were randomly divided in two groups. The E group subsample consisted of 44 participants (20±0.4 years), who had three Step aerobics program trainings per week and the C group subsample consisted of 50 participants (20±0.6 years), who did not take part in any organized exercise program and only conducted their regular daily activities. The following measurements were used: Body height, body weight, waist size, abdomen skinfold, back skinfold, upper arm skinfold, upper leg skinfold, body fat percentage and muscle mass percentage. Upon the Step aerobics program implementation, there was a body fat reduction by 4.9 % and waist size by 7.7 %, while the muscle mass was increased by 9.4 %. Above mentioned skinfolds showed a reduction (p>0.05) at the final measurement compared to the initial one - abdomen by 25 %, upper leg by 23.7 %, back by 15.7 % and upper arm by 3.5 %. Likewise, there was a body fat percentage reduction by 2.1 % and BMI by 6.4 %. Based on the obtained results, we can conclude that the Step aerobics training is efficient in reducing subcutaneous fat tissue and viscelar fat, as well as in increasing muscle mass.

This study aimed to determine differences in morphological characteristics and body composition between female handball players from the national teams of Montenegro and Kosovo (U16). Thirty-four participants were included in the study, divided into two subgroups. The first subgroup consisted of 18 players from the Montenegro national team, with an average age of 14.68±0.58 years. The second subgroup consisted of 16 players from the Kosovo national team, with an average age of 15.33±0.66 years. Testing was conducted during the qualification rounds for the European Championship took place in Podgorica in 2021. All players were assessed for anthropometric measurements and body composition, with a total of twelve variables. Body height, body weight, hand length, arm span, triceps skinfold, biceps skinfold, subscapular skinfold, abdominal skinfold, calf skinfold, thigh skinfold, body mass index (BMI), and body fat percentage (BF).The Tanita - model BC-418MA was utilized for the assessment of body composition. Differences in morphological characteristics and body composition of the female handball players from the two national teams were determined through discriminant parametric procedures using the T-test for independent samples with statistical significance set at p < .05. The results indicated that the players from the Montenegro team were significantly younger, had significantly greater average body height, body weight, and hand length compared to players from the Kosovo team. Statistical differences between the two treated teams were found in the variable thigh skinfold, while no significant differences were observed in BMI and BF. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The aim of this study was to establish an age-related dynamic of change model for predicting changes in body composition indicators in professional firefighters. The study included a total sample of 145 subjects, comprising professional firefighters from Serbia (Age: 36.6 ± 7.6 yrs., Min - Max: 21.0 - 52.0 yrs.). Four basic variables were analysed: Body Mass - BM, Body Fat Mass - BFM, Skeletal Muscle Mass - SMM, and Visceral Fat Area - VFA, as well as five derived, or index, variables: Body Mass Index - BMI, Percentage of Body Fat - PBF, Percentage of Skeletal Muscle Mass - PSMM, Protein-Fat Index - PFI, and Index of Body - IBC Composition. The results showed a statistically significant dynamic of change as a function of age for eight of the examined variables, while only one (Skeletal Muscle Mass - SMM) was not statistically significant. The highest statistical significance in terms of dynamics of change as a function of age was found for the variable VFA (F = 35.241, p = 000) and the variable PSMM (F = 31.398, p = 0.000). Professional firefighters in Serbia fall into the category of people with normal nutritional indicators. However, due to a dominant increase in visceral fat (VFA) combined with a dominant decrease in the proportion of skeletal muscles in the body (PSMM), it can be concluded that they are exposed to a risk of developing various chronic diseases, while their working conditions, which promote certain negative lifestyle habits, also contribute to the observed increase in body fat components.

Background: changes in body composition (BC) are common in interstitial lung disease, which leads to an increased risk of complications and infections, and are associated with poor quality of life and worse outcomes. BC assessment is important to identify malnutrition and sarcopenia. However, gold-standard techniques are not available in all clinical settings. Aims: this study aimed to evaluate the agreement and reliability of body composition estimated by bioelectric impedance analysis (BIA) and measured using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) in women with interstitial lung disease. Methods: this is a cross-sectional study. BC (fat mass and appendicular skeletal muscle mass) were assessed using BIA multifrequency and DEXA in standardized conditions. Agreement and reliability between techniques were evaluated using Bland-Altman plots and the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC). Results: a total of 50 women were evaluated. No differences were observed for FM (BIA, 25.8 ± 10.2 kg and DEXA, 26.3 ± 10.0 kg, p = 0.77) and ASMM (BIA, 14.1 ± 2.7 kg and DEXA, 13.9 ± 2.3 kg, p = 0.83). Based on ICC, good reliability was observed for FM (ICC, 0.98) and ASMM (ICC, 0.93). Conclusion: BC estimated by BIA showed good agreement and reliability with DEXA measurements. In the absence of this method, BIA can replace the DEXA technique for body composition assessment. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Introducción: Por mucho tiempo el índice de masa corporal (IMC) se ha utilizado por los trabajadores de la salud como un estándar para clasificar el estado nutricional, la cantidad de grasa y el riesgo de padecer enfermedades metabólicas; sin embargo, cada vez se reconocen más sus limitaciones. Objetivo: El objetivo de este trabajo era identificar si el IMC es un indicador confiable del estado de grasa corporal en adultos guatemaltecos. Metodología: Para determinar esto, se analizaron los datos de 781 adultos que asistieron a la clínica de Nutrición de Salud de la Universidad Francisco Marroquín (UFM) entre 2022 y 2023. Resultados: Se encontró que el IMC subestimó el estado de grasa corporal en al menos un 10 % de sujetos con respecto de la clasificación, según los índices de adiposidad medidos por DXA. Por otra parte, se encontró que la circunferencia de la cintura se correlacionó de forma significativa con el tejido adiposo visceral para mujeres y hombres (r=0.8608; p

El objetivo del estudio fue evaluar la composición corporal de escolares de 6 a 11 años, matriculados en la enseñanza primaria I de escuelas municipales de una ciudad de Santa Catarina, Brasil. Participaron escolares de 1º a 5º grado, con un total de 804 niños para la muestra, 440 niñas y 364 niños, de edades comprendidas entre los 6 y los 11 años. Los instrumentos de investigación fueron mediciones antropométricas individuales para el cálculo del Índice de Masa Corporal (IMC) y el Índice de Adiposidad Corporal (IAC). Para el análisis y la interpretación de los datos obtenidos se utilizó el programa estadístico SPSS 20.0. Los resultados del IMC de la muestra fueron de 17,7 kg/m² y el IAC de 20,1%. Los varones presentaron valores inferiores de IMC (0,01 menos) y de IAC (0,03 menos). Al clasificar vemos que el 53% de la muestra se encuentra en "eutrofia", es decir, en el peso ideal según los valores del IMC (kg/m²). Lo mismo ocurre con el IAC (%). Observamos que 62% de la muestra está clasificada como "eutrófica". Se concluye que los alumnos de 6 a 11 años matriculados de 1º a 5º grado en escuelas municipales de una ciudad de Santa Catarina son mayoritariamente eutróficos.

To take advantage of altitude, "intermittent hypoxia" methods have been developed that involve shorter exposures to hypoxia. In general, systemic hypoxia can be produced in two ways: (1) by lowering barometric pressure (BP, hypobaric hypoxia) or (2) by reducing the amount of oxygen in inspired air (FiO2) through oxygen filtration or nitrogen dilution (normobaric hypoxia). The objective of this analysis was to observe changes in body composition and aerobic performance after 8 weeks of intermittent hypoxia exposure at rest. A total of 20 male volunteers between the ages of 18-26 participated in the study. Participants were randomly divided into 2 groups (Control Group and Intermittent Hypoxia Group). The Intermittent Hypoxia Group completed the process by being exposed to intermittent hypoxia for 8 weeks. Each intermittent hypoxia session was planned as 3 days a week and for 1 hour. After 8 weeks of experimental process, statistically significant differences were found for lean mass, android lean mass, gynoid lean mass, the relative skeletal muscle mass index, peak lactate, 1mmol lactate threshold, 4mmol lactate threshold, and MaxVo2 variables (p<0,05). After 8 weeks of intermittent hypoxia exposure, an increase in maximal oxygen consumption capacity was observed. The increase in lean mass, especially in the gynoid and android regions, can be explained by the increase in fat burning activities due to oxygen utilization capacity. Almost every study reviewed in the literature used different intermittent hypoxia exposure protocols and different simulated altitudes. The method discussed in this study may be beneficial on the body composition and oxygen utilization capacity of sedentary individuals. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This study aims to investigate body typologies based on a combination of basic anthropo-morphological characteristics and body composition measured by multichannel bioimpedance in a sample from the adult population of Lebanon. A total of 302 subjects (173 males and 129 females) without acute or chronic health disorders were included in the study. Body composition was measured by the multichannel bioelectrical impedance (BIA) method, using the i30 device (MEDIANA, Korea). The research used 10 variables, including three basic anthropo-morphological variables, three for assessing fat, three for assessing the muscle component, and one index variable. K-means cluster analysis was used to define five specific clusters (5D) of body types based on sex. In light of the results, the study established five distinct clusters representing five different body typologies among Lebanese adults, categorized by sex: Male sample, Group 1 – Obese Endomorph (15.61 %), Group 2 – Balanced Mesomorph (16.76 %), Group 3 – Short Endomorph (30.06 %), Group 4 – Short Mesomorph (34.10 %), and Group 5 – Pathological Obese Endomorph (3.47 %); Female sample, Group 1– Obese Endomorph (2.33 %), Group 2 – Short Endo/Mesomorph (28.68 %), Group 3 – Short Ectomorph (32.56 %), Group 4 – Endomorph (22.48 %), and Group 5 – Balanced Mesomorph (13.95 %). Furthermore, the results indicated that the primary factor contributing to the distinctions among the identified clusters in terms of sex is fat tissue. This leads to the conclusion that eating habits cause the given differences, rather than the level of physical activity, regardless of sex. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Introduction: among the groups more affected by the COVID-19 pandemic were patients undergoing chronic hemodialysis (HD) treatment due to their comorbidities, advanced age, impaired innate and adaptive immune function, and increased nutritional risk due to their underlying inflammatory state. All of these factors contribute to a higher risk of severe complications and worse outcomes compared to the general population when infected with SARS-CoV-2. Objective: the objective of this study was to describe the nutritional characteristics of and their potential association with the prognosis of COVID-19 in patients undergoing chronic HD treatment. Method: a descriptive, retrospective, observational design. All cases of COVID-19 in patients undergoing chronic treatment at the Hemodialysis Unit of Hospital de Manises, Valencia, Spain, from the start of the pandemic to before vaccination were included. Results: for that, 189 patients were studied, who received chronic HD treatment in the hospital unit, 22 patients were diagnosed with COVID-19 (12 %) in that period. The mean age was 71 years, 10 were women, the Charlson index was 6.59 points, diabetes mellitus 10, vintage HD 51.6 months, 2 patients had previously received a currently non-functioning kidney transplant, 16 had arteriovenous fistula as vascular access, and 6 had central vascular access. The mean dialysis session time was 220.14 minutes and the initial value of the single dose of the Kt/V pool was 1.7. Sixteen patients had body composition measurement, a strong association (p < 0.05) was identified between mortality and BMI, as well as mortality and FTI. Furthermore, the differences between deceased and surviving groups in the serum levels of various variables related to nutritional status were analyzed, finding significant differences with p < 0.05 in the value of triglycerides and ferritin. Conclusions: higher body mass index and higher body fat content, along with lower baseline levels of triglycerides and ferritin, were significantly associated with higher COVID-19 mortality in patients on chronic hemodialysis. These findings suggest that the initial nutritional status of these patients can significantly influence the prognosis of SARS-CoV-2 infection. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The aim of this study was to determine the sensitivity of different methods of partialization, in terms of different body component indices in relation to indicators of strength and explosiveness. The research involved 187 subjects who were divided into two groups based on sex. This research consisted of measuring body composition characteristics by multichannel bioimpedance analysis (BIA) InBody 720, as well as contractile characteristics of different muscle groups with tenziometric Dinamometry method. Based on the results of the factor analysis we found that regardless of the sex the most sensitive variable for partialization of absolute body isometric strength variable (ABiS) is partialization by allometric scaling (0.964 for females and 0.947 for males explained factor variance). However, in the case of absolute body isometric explosiveness (ABiE), the results of this study have demonstrated that partialization relative to skeletal muscle mass according to the body longitudinality – skeletal muscle mass index (SMMI) is the methodological choice disregarding the sex (0.982 for females and 0.980 for males explained factor variance). The results of the study have shown that for the purpose of scaling the maximal strength relative to body composition, the allometric method can be considered as a choice, while for the partialization of maximal isometric explosiveness skeletal muscle mass index is the best choice insensitive of the sex.

Se incluyeron 371 pacientes (178 mujeres/193 hombres), con diferentes enfermedades, con un Índice de Masa Corporal (IMC) medio ± DE de 25,32 ± 8,3 kg/m². Se evaluó la composición corporal de 371 pacientes. Se analizaron la densidad mineral ósea (DMO), el peso graso, el peso magro, la relación cintura-cadera, el índice de masa magra (LMI), el índice de masa grasa (FMI), y la relación entre el porcentaje de grasa y el IMC. De los 371 pacientes 156 eran diabéticos y 215 no diabéticos. Los pacientes no diabéticos también incluyeron 5 con obesidad, 9 con hígado graso, 39 con hipertensión, 22 con hiperlipidemia, 18 con enfermedad cardiovascular, 11 con enfermedad torácica y pulmonar, 4 con enfermedad crónica, 14 con enfermedad cerebral y 93 pacientes con otras enfermedades. Entre los 156 pacientes diabéticos, 129 tenían un IVA > 100 cm² y 27 tenían un IVA ≤100 cm². El peso magro (PV) de los hombres diabéticos fue significativamente mayor que el de las mujeres diabéticas. El peso graso (FW) de las mujeres diabéticas fue significativamente mayor que el de los hombres diabéticos. El índice cintura-cadera (ICC) fue de 1,37 ± 0,25 en hombres diabéticos y de 1,18 ± 0,21 en mujeres diabéticas. Entre los 215 pacientes no diabéticos, los pacientes obesos y con hígado graso, cuyo peso (WT) (obesidad: 83,87 ± 8,34 kg hígado graso: 85,64 ± 28,60 kg), FW (obesidad: 28,56 ± 4,18 kg hígado graso: 28,61 ± 10,79 kg), PV (obesidad: 52,62 ± 9,64 kg, hígado graso: 54,29 ± 17,58 kg), IMC (obesidad: 28,76 ± 1,88 kg/m², hígado graso: 29,10 ± 5,95 kg/m² ), fue mucho mayor que otros pacientes. Los pacientes diabéticos tenían menos masa grasa que los pacientes no diabéticos; la diferencia fue de alrededor de 2 kg. La DMO no difiere mucho. Los pacientes no diabéticos con obesidad debido al hígado graso y enfermedades cardiovasculares tenían mayor masa grasa e IMC que los pacientes con otras enfermedades. La composición corporal puede proporcionar información precisa sobre la composición de diferentes áreas del cuerpo, pero se requieren exámenes más profundos para determinar el perfil endocrino del cuerpo.

- Abstract
Objective: The detection and classification of sarcopenia involves the analysis of many variables (50 to 60), which increases the time and costs required to diagnose and manage this condition. The objective of the study was to develop a synthetic statistical index to diagnose and classify sarcopenia in physically active women over 60 years old. Methodology: We conducted a cross-sectional study on 100 physically active women (64.88 ±4.4 years) on whom body composition measurements, muscle strength, and gait tests were performed. One thousand random selections of both training and test sets (80% and 20%, respectively) were made, logistic regression was fitted, and the regularization procedure (Elastic net regression) was performed. Results: the skeletal appendicular mass index (kg/m2), muscle mass (kg/m2) and SAMI (kg/m2) are highly correlated (0.93) and slow gait speed (m/sec) were the variables that contributed the most to the diagnosis of sarcopenia with a visibly high correlation, (94%). Conclusion: appendicular lean mass, gait speed, and explosive strength sufficiently describe the state of muscle and functional deterioration (sarcopenia) in physically active older women. Also, the precise identification and classification of this condition facilitates comprehensive multidisciplinary intervention, increasing the positive impact of health promotion and disease prevention programs.

Esta ponencia examina las evidencias para la actividad física en la pérdida de peso y de adiposidad, la prevención del aumento de peso y la adiposidad, así como la recuperación de peso en adultos, y provee orientación sobre las implicaciones para los profesionales del ejercicio. La evidencia de la investigación indica que se requieren > 150 minutos, pero preferiblemente 300 minutos por semana de actividad aeróbica de intensidad al menos moderada para prevenir el aumento de peso y adiposidad, y al menos el extremo superior de esta gama de actividad para prevenir la recuperación de peso después de la pérdida de peso. Para que la pérdida de peso y adiposidad total sea significativa, se requiere un mínimo de 300 a 400 minutos por semana de actividad aeróbica de intensidad, al menos, moderada. La evidencia en torno al volumen de actividad física aeróbica requerida para reducir la adiposidad central está surgiendo, y las investigaciones apuntan a que puede ser sustancialmente menor que la que se requiere para la pérdida de peso. El impacto de la actividad física de alta intensidad y el ejercicio de resistencia para la gestión del peso es incierto. Durante las consultas para la gestión del peso, los profesionales en ejercicio deben aconsejar que se pueden lograr beneficios para la salud metabólica y cardiovascular por medio de la actividad física a cualquier peso, e independientemente del cambio de peso.

Resumen Introducción: el exceso de peso en las personas tiene implicaciones negativas en la productividad laboral. La inteligencia emocional y los rasgos de personalidad han mostrado diferencias entre personas con peso normal y con exceso de peso (de acuerdo con el IMC). Sin embargo, la evidencia de asociaciones con indicadores más objetivos como el porcentaje de grasa corporal es escasa. El objetivo del estudio fue determinar si existe relación entre el porcentaje de grasa corporal, la inteligencia emocional y los rasgos de personalidad en población joven trabajadora. Método: se realizó un estudio transversal-analítico en 125 jóvenes de Xalapa, Veracruz, México, con edad promedio de 24.6 años (DEedad±2.6). Se aplicó un cuestionario de datos sociodemográficos, la Escala de Inteligencia Emocional (EQ-i-M20), el Inventario de Rasgos de Personalidad (BFI-15p) y se midió el porcentaje de grasa corporal mediante análisis de bioimpedancia. Resultados: la inteligencia emocional y los rasgos de personalidad presentan diferencias entre los sexos. Las mujeres presentan menor inteligencia emocional y mayor neuroticismo que los hombres. En la muestra total, se identificaron como predictores del porcentaje de grasa corporal algunas dimensiones de la inteligencia emocional como manejo de estrés, adaptabilidad y ánimo general, así como los rasgos de neuroticismo y apertura. Conclusión: es indispensable que los entornos laborales consideren las dimensiones de la inteligencia emocional y los rasgos de personalidad, en la planeación de estrategias para la promoción de la salud y la prevención de enfermedades asociadas al exceso de peso.

Introducción: La relación entre la composición corporal y el fenotipo delgado metabólicamente obeso (DMO), caracterizado por problemas metabólicos en personas con un IMC normal, ha sido poco estudiada en población latina. A pesar de que el IMC se utiliza ampliamente para evaluar las asociaciones entre sobrepeso, obesidad y la salud metabólica, presenta limitaciones en la diferenciación entre grasa y masa magra. El objetivo de este estudio fue analizar la asociación entre el porcentaje de grasa corporal (%GC) estimado a través de pliegues cutáneos y el diagnóstico de DMO en la población peruana. Metodología: Estudio analítico transversal con datos de la cohorte PERU MIGRANT. Se incluyeron participantes con IMC entre 18,5 a 24,9 kg/m² sin antecedentes de diabetes e hipertensión. El DMO se definió como ≥2 factores de riesgo cardio metabólicos. El punto de corte óptimo del %GC se obtuvo mediante la curva de la característica operativa del receptor (COR) y área bajo la curva con intervalos de confianza (IC) al 95%, estratificado por sexo y utilizando el índice de Youden. Se realizó un modelo lineal generalizado con enlace log y familia Poisson con varianza, obteniendo razones de prevalencia crudas y ajustadas (RPc y RPa) con IC95%. Resultados: Se incluyó 321 participantes en el estudio. El 54,52% eran mujeres y 9,66% tenía ≥60 años. La prevalencia del DMO fue 32,09% y varió significativamente según el sexo, grupo de edad y %GC. Los puntos de corte óptimos del %GC para DMO fueron 20,70% en hombres y 32,45% en mujeres. La regresión múltiple reveló que un alto %GC aumentó significativamente la RPa en 3,09 (IC95% 2,04-4,67) veces, tras ajustar por covariables. Conclusión: Este estudio confirma la relación entre el %GC estimado mediante pliegues cutáneos y el diagnóstico de DMO. Destaca la importancia de evaluar la composición corporal integralmente, incluso en personas delgadas, para prevenir eficazmente las alteraciones metabólicas asociadas.

The Olympic Games always offer great interest when it comes to water polo. Currently, many selections have an approximate quality and details determine who will win. Prior to the tournament the authors wanted to verify body composition and anthropometric characteristics of players of the three national teams, Serbia, the United States of America (USA) and Montenegro. The purpose of this research was to determine the differences in body composition and anthropometric characteristics between the water polo players of the national team of Serbia and Olympic champion in Tokyo 2021, the national team of USA which took sixth place and the national team of Montenegro, which took the eighth place. Body mass index, fat percentage and muscle mass (body composition variables) were evaluated by Bioelectric Impedance type MC-980 and body height, body weight, triceps skinfold, biceps skinfold, skinfold of the back, abdominal skinfold, upper leg skinfold, lower leg skinfold (other anthropometric characteristics) were evaluated by an anthropometer and a calliper. ANOVA showed that there was a statistically significant difference in fat percentage. The LSD post hoc test showed statistically significant differences between the water polo players of the Montenegrin national team (13.33 %) compared to the water polo players of the USA national team (16.67 %). It can be stated that water polo players from Montenegro had a statistically significantly lower fat percentage than water polo players from the USA and a lower level of fat than water polo players from Serbia, though this was not statistically significant. Although the fat percentage is a disruptive factor with athletes, it had no effect on the result at the Olympic Games in Tokyo, because Serbia eventually won the gold medal, the USA obtained sixth place, and Montenegro eighth place. It means that some other abilities influenced the results at the Tokyo Olympics in water polo, for example tactical, physical, psychological, technical... which is to be shown by some other research.

Monitoring of body composition and cardiophysiological parameters are main part of the general health status of handball players and significant indicators of their physical fitness. The assessment of body components, especially skeletal muscle mass and body fat mass are important because of their influence on sport performance. The aim of this study is to determine the body composition and cardiophysiological characteristics of elite handball players from Republic of North Macedonia. 27 male HB players from two top ranking teams from RNM were tested ergometrically with Bruce protocol for determination of maximal oxygen consumption; body analysis was made with bioelectrical impedance analyzer, InBody 720. Anthropometric parameters were as follows: mean height was 190.4±7.8 cm and weight 96.3±15.5 kg, skeletal muscle mass (SMM)=47.11±6.69 kg; BMI=26.38±3.1; BF%=15.04±6.01 and WHR=0.9±1.8. The result of ergometrical test produce mean VO2 max=43.92 ml/kg/min which is 100.46 % of reference value. The body composition of elite international handball players from the top handball teams in Republic of North Macedonia showed similar body components as other European handball players. The obesity diagnose parameters were negatively associated with exercise time and maximal oxygen consumption. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This study aims to assess the nutritional status of Aymara and non-Aymara children in Arica, comparing anthropometric measurements of boys and girls aged 4-10 to inform interventions for child health and development. We conducted a non-experimental, quantitative, cross-sectional study in Arica, Chile. The sample included 458 children, with equal representation of Aymara and non-Aymara children from diverse socioeconomic backgrounds. Trained research assistants collected anthropometric data using standardized techniques. IBM SPSS statistical software was used for data analysis, including Student's t-test and the Levene test. Both Aymara and non-Aymara children showed high prevalence of overweight and obesity. Boys had a meso-endomorph somatotype, while girls had an endomorph somatotype. Among 8-year-olds, non-Aymara children had a slightly higher mean body weight (35.87, SD 4.50) compared to Aymara children (32.27, SD 4.31), but the difference was not statistically significant (p>0.05). However, 10-year-old Aymara girls had a significantly higher mean body mass index (22.34, SD 4.21) than non-Aymara girls (20.10, SD 3.58) (p=0.05). Regarding body fat percentage, 10-yearold non-Aymara girls had a slightly higher mean (31.01, SD 5.64) than Aymara girls (26.12, SD 5.63), but the difference was not statistically significant (p>0.05). The study found high levels of overweight and obesity in children from northern Chile, increasing with age for both Aymara and non-Aymara groups. The somatotype patterns were consistent across both groups. Although the differences between Aymara and non-Aymara children were not statistically significant, the Aymara group showed slightly higher levels of overweight and obesity. Further research with a larger sample size is needed to confirm these results and identify potential trends. Efforts should focus on promoting healthy nutrition and physical activity to address the growing problem of overweight and obesity in this region. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Objective: to evaluate clinical, metabolic and body characteristics related to the metabolically unhealthy phenotype (MUH) in menopausal women who practice resistance training (RT). Methods: cross-sectional study with a sample of 31 women. Clinical and metabolic variables were measured. Body adiposity was assessed by body mass index, waist circumference, visceral adiposity index (VAI) and lipid accumulation product (LAP). Body composition analysis was performed by DEXA. Results: the prevalence of the MH phenotype was 74.2 %. Metabolically healthy (MH) women were younger, had more years of RT practice, higher HDL-c levels and lower VAI and android/gynoid ratio (A/G) than the MUH women. Women with inadequacy of HDL-c, TG, A/G and VAI had 12.50 (95 % CI: 3.30-47.23), 4.83 (95 % CI: 2.37-9.85), 5.20 (95 % CI: 1.90-14.16) and 3.12 (95 % CI: 1.07-9.04) times greater prevalence of the MUH phenotype, respectively, than those with adequacy of these parameters. Binary logistic regression analysis demonstrated that age is a predictor of the MUH phenotype (OR = 1.254; 95 % CI: 1.00-1.56) and this variable showed correlation with TG, VAI and A/G. There was no association between thyrotropin and MUH phenotype in the present sample. Conclusion: age and visceral adiposity are predictors for the MUH phenotype in RT practitioners in menopause, which may initially be characterized by alterations in serum lipid profile.

Anthropometric characteristics, including body size, shape, and composition, can have a significant impact on sports performance due to their influence on various physiological and biomechanical factors. However, limited research has been conducted on the anthropometric characteristics of highly trained throwing para-athletes. The purpose of this study was to describe the anthropometric characteristics, handgrip strength, and upper limb bilateral asymmetries of highly trained Chilean shot put para-throwers. Five male Chilean shot put para-athletes (average age of 38.8 ± 7.7 years) were assessed for their anthropometric characteristics, including skinfold thickness at six anatomical sites, girth at five sites, and bone breadth at two sites. Handgrip strength and bilateral asymmetries were also measured. The body mass and height of the athletes were found to be 90.5 ± 5.1 kg and 179.1 ± 8.9 cm, respectively. The athletes were found to have an endo-mesomorph somatotype (4.4-6.9-1.0) with high levels of fat mass (25.7 ± 2.8 %) and skeletal muscle mass (39.1 ± 3.7 %). The handgrip strength of the athletes was found to be 66.4 ± 6.7 kg with a bilateral asymmetry of 6.5 ± 6.2 %, with the dominant hand showing greater strength. The results indicate that the shot put para-athletes have a somatotype characterized by increased muscularity and body fat, along with a considerable stature. Although handgrip strength was found to be high, the athletes showed bilateral asymmetry, which requires further investigation to determine the cause and implications. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Introducción: La obesidad sigue siendo uno de los problemas más grandes de salud pública en todo el mundo. Se conoce que está asociada con una gran variedad de enfermedades; en mujeres obesas, aún se desconoce la forma idónea para realizar una adecuada prescripción física. Objetivo: revisar los tipos de entrenamientos físicos de ensayos controlados aleatorizados publicados en la base de datos PubMed entre los años 2015 a 2022 sobre los cambios en la composición corporal en mujeres adultas de 18 a 65 años con obesidad. Metodología: se utilizó a modo de filtro la “Herramienta de Evaluación de Calidad Validada para Estudios Cuantitativos”. Resultados: la búsqueda arrojó 586 artículos, de los cuales el 93.85% fueron eliminados; 6.14% pasaron por un filtro que dejó un total de 1.7%. Conclusión: en mujeres adultas con obesidad, se ha demostrado que todos los tipos de entrenamiento físico sirven para generar cambios en la composición corporal.

Introducción. La Organización Mundial de la Salud (OMS) define la salud como un estado de completo bienestar físico, mental y social, y establece que los hábitos de vida saludable son acciones que modifican los factores de riesgo cardiovascular. Hacer actividad física disminuye el riesgo cardiovascular y puede modificar el peso y la composición corporal, por lo que analizar la composición corporal y el nivel de actividad física de las personas es de gran importancia. Objetivo. Caracterizar la composición corporal y el grado de actividad física del personal asistencial del Servicio de Medicina Física y Rehabilitación del Hospital Militar Central (HOMIL) de Bogotá, Colombia, durante el año 2020. Métodos. Estudio transversal realizado con 46 trabajadores del Servicio de Medicina Física y Rehabilitación del HOMIL. Resultados. La mayoría de participantes eran mujeres (65%) pertenecientes a diferentes dependencias, principalmente a terapia física (37%), y tenían un índice de masa corporal (IMC) normal (58,7%); el 34,8% presentó sobrepeso y el 6,5%, obesidad. En la medición de la composición corporal por bioimpedancia eléctrica se observó que la mayoría de participantes (69,6%) tenía una proporción normal de masa grasa normal y que el volumen de grasa visceral fue elevado en la mitad de la población y normal en la otra mitad. La actividad física en la mayoría de la población fue moderada (47,8%), lo que pudo estar asociado a que el 70,6% de los trabajadores dedicaba cuatro o más horas a realizar actividades sedentarias. Conclusión. La mayoría del personal de salud perteneciente al Servicio de Medicina Física y Rehabilitación del HOMIL presenta IMC normal; sin embargo, una gran proporción tiene sobrepeso y obesidad y solo la mitad presenta un nivel de actividad física moderada, dejando en evidencia la presencia de condiciones con necesidad de corregir para evitar complicaciones cardiovasculares.

The aim of this research was to determine the differences among the junior basketball players of the BC Partizan and BC Buducnost Voli, in terms of their anthropometric characteristics and body composition. A sample of 22 subjects was divided into two sub-samples. The first sub-sample of the subjects consisted of 11 players of the basketball team Partizan (Serbia), of the average age 17.18 ± 0.50, while the other sub-sample consisted of 11 players of basketball team Buducnost Voli (Montenegro), based on the average age of 17.28 ± 0.30. All players were tested in Podgorica, in a lasting period of two days, while they held international friendly tournament, just before the start of the national championships. Anthropometric characteristics in the body composition were evaluated by a battery of eleven variables: body height (cm), body weight (kg), triceps skinfold, back skinfold, biceps skinfold, abdominal skinfold, thighs skinfold, calf skinfold, body mass index (BMI), percentage of fat and muscle mass (kg). Differences in anthropometric characteristic and composition of the body of the male junior basketball players of two basketball teams were determined by using a discriminatory parametric procedure with t-test for small independent samples. It was found that the basketball players of Partizan are taller and have a lower body mass. Also, there are significant statistical differences by seven: triceps skinfold, back skinfold, biceps skinfold, abdominal skinfold, calf skinfold, thigh skinfold and BMI. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Contexto: la Organización Mundial de la Salud define obesidad como “una acumulación anormal o excesiva de grasa que puede ser perjudicial para la salud”, mientras que la definición del Consenso Español de Obesidad del 2016 es “cuando el porcentaje de masa grasa es mayor al 33% en mujeres”. Por su parte, la bioimpedancia eléctrica (BIA) cuantifica la masa grasa a partir de la masa libre de grasa, por lo que sirve como herramienta de estudio, clasificación y diagnóstico de la obesidad, sin las limitaciones que posee el índice de masa corporal (IMC). Objetivo: describir la composición corporal en mujeres por medio de BIA, principalmente el porcentaje de grasa corporal (PGC) y el índice de masa libre de grasa (IMLG), y hacer una correlación entre la clasificación de sobrepeso y obesidad según el IMC, con el PGC calculado por BIA. Metodología: estudio transversal y retrospectivo en una clínica de alta complejidad, el cual incluyó a mujeres entre los 18 y los 60 años, valoradas en la consulta de control de peso de Endocrinología evaluadas por BIA. Se realizó análisis descriptivo y de correlación entre IMC, PGC e IMLG a través de grupos de edad, donde con estadística no paramétrica se establecieron posibles diferencias entre los estratos de edad y se estableció una diferencia estadística con un p < 0,05. Resultados: se evaluó a 323 mujeres con una edad media de 36,2 (± SD 9,57) años, peso con media de 73,35 kg (± SD 73,351), IMC media de 28,825 (± SD 4,69), PGC media 40,98?% (± SD 6,12), donde la mayoría de las pacientes se encontraban en el grupo de los 29 a los 39 años (42,1?%), 62 mujeres (19,2?%) tenían un IMC normal, en el grupo de sobrepeso por IMC se encontraron 158 mujeres (48,9 %), 103 mujeres (31,8?%) se encontraban en algún grado de obesidad, 62 tenían sobrepeso por PGC (19,19?%) y 261 tenían obesidad por PGC (80,80?%). Además, el IMC era mayor en el grupo de 29 a 39 años y el IMLG fue mayor en el grupo de 29 a 39 años con niveles de índice importante. Conclusiones: aunque el uso del IMC para la clasificación de la obesidad es el parámetro que en la actualidad más se usa, tanto en el campo clínico como en el investigativo, podemos ver cómo este podría no ser la herramienta más acertada para dicha evaluación y se debería introducir el uso de PGC por métodos como la BIA para su clasificación.

La práctica del ayuno intermitente es una temática actual que en los últimos años se está haciendo hueco en el panorama dietético. El propósito de esta revisión bibliográfica fue analizar los efectos del ayuno intermitente junto con la práctica de actividad física, sobre el rendimiento y la composición corporal de los deportistas. La búsqueda se realizó en las bases de datos Web of Science y Scopus, a partir de los descriptores «intermittent fasting» y «intermittent dietary intake». De los 246 resultados obtenidos inicialmente, 20 cumplieron con los criterios de inclusión y fueron seleccionados para este estudio. Los artículos analizados se centran principalmente en la realización de ayuno intermitente y ejercicio físico, para la mejora del rendimiento y la composición corporal. Tras el análisis, encontramos hallazgos coincidentes con la literatura nacional e internacional respecto a los beneficios de la práctica del ayuno intermitente. En conclusión, el ayuno intermitente junto con la práctica de actividad física, favorece la pérdida de masa grasa y, por consiguiente, del peso corporal, además de favorecer una mejora de los biomarcadores relacionados con la salud. No obstante, toda la literatura científica revisada, sugiere la necesidad de llevar a cabo más estudios para reforzar estas conclusiones.

BIOELECTRIC impedance , *NEWBORN infants , *LITERATURE reviews , *ADIPOSE tissues , *ELECTRIC impedance , *BODY composition - Abstract
Objective: the objective of this study was to identify the use of bioelectrical impedance in newborns (NB), as this is an easy-to-apply and non-invasive method of measurement that can be used for distinguishing fat-free mass (FFM), fat mass (FM), and total body water (TBW). Method: this was an integrative review of the literature using the PubMed/MEDLINE, EMBASE, Web of Science, and Virtual Health Library databases to search for original articles between 2010-2020. A total of 900 articles were retrieved; after checking for duplicity and applying the eligibility criteria, 9 were further analyzed. Results: about the results, five studies used single frequency bioimpedance, with a specific population of neonates, preterm and/or full term, and different clinical conditions. Resistance was the most studied bioelectric indicator, the phase angle is little explored, and four studies investigated body composition (FFM, FM and TBW). Studies found that preterm newborns had lower amounts of TBW, FFM, and FM than term newborns, and there were differences in body composition between sex. The phase angle was lower for preterm newborns. Babies fed with high protein formulas had increases in the FFM. Conclusion: there is a need for multicenter studies to define standardized methods to be used with this public. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

BODY composition , *DUAL-energy X-ray absorptiometry , *BODY mass index , *ADIPOSE tissues , *ADULTS - Abstract
Introduction: dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is the gold standard method, although one limitation is the size of the scan area. Objective: the objective was to verify the accuracy of body composition (BC) scanning through half-body DXA scanning compared to standard total body scanning. Methods: a study was conducted on 145 volunteers. Weight and height were assessed. Body mass index (BMI) was calculated. DXA was used for whole-body scan (WBS) and half-body scan (HBS). WBS was used as the reference method and the following indicators were extracted: bone mineral content (BMC), fat mass (FM), lean soft tissue (LST) and percentage fat mass (%FM). Results: no differences were observed in the body composition indicators (BMC, FM, LST and %FM) when compared between the reference WBS scanner and the HBS scanner. The predictive power between both scans ranged in both sexes between R2 = 0.94 and 0.98. The DRI desirable reproducibility index values defining the degree of agreement between both scans ranged from 0.97 to 0.99, and the values for precision (0.97 to 0.99) and accuracy (0.99) were high. Conclusion: HBS scanning by DXA evidenced agreement, and high values of accuracy and precision to assess body composition indicators (BMC, FM, LST and %FM). [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
