smart scales tend to be more accurate for routine weight management, says weight loss clinic physicianKatie Rosenfeld, DO. When using a smart scale, place it on an even surface, weigh yourself around
Although empirical estimations could give you an accurate estimate of a general user’s body composition, there are significant problems when they are used for medical purposes. Let’s suppose that there is a device that uses an empirical equation to calculate total body water. And there aretwo...
Body mass index (BMI) was calculated based on weight/height during the medical history. Percent Body Fat (PBF) was assessed using an InBody370 Impedance Body Composition Analyzer (InBody Co., Ltd., South Korea). This device uses 15 impedance measurements (3 frequencies: 5 kHz, 50 kHz...
The use of subjective scales (e.g., characterizing a student’s math competencies as “good”) allows different standards of judgment to be applied to students from different social groups and should therefore mask biases. A girl described as “really good at math” might be perceived as good...
(3 frequencies: 5 kHz, 50 kHz, 250 kHz; five body segments: right arm, left arm, trunk, right leg, left leg) to produce highly accurate composition estimates and has been found to have a high correlation of 0.99 to dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) for lean body mass in...
But statistically, these models should provide a fairly accurate measure of how much harmful content the users are being exposed to. What this means is that the platform companies can not generally say with certainty that any particular piece of content is harmful. So it is not feasible to ...
This study, focusing on the population treated with thrombolytic therapy, aimed to uncover the ideal time point for neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) measurement for accurate prediction of stroke-associated pneumonia (SAP). For patients undergoing intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) for acute ischemic str...
Sound localization plays a critical role in animal survival. Three cues can be used to compute sound direction: interaural timing differences (ITDs), interaural level differences (ILDs) and the direction-dependent spectral filtering by the head and pinna
Within the first 100 days of treatment, the KELIM-PARP model provided an accurate means of assessing the CA-125 longitudinal kinetics. In a study of platinum-sensitive patients, the combination of BRCA mutational status and the KELIM-PARP score was found to be significantly associated with both...
Accuracy was significantly positively correlated with reaction time, suggesting that mice that sampled a greater portion of the stimulus made more accurate decisions about its correlation structure (Pearson correlation coefficient R = 0.49, P < 1.1 × 10−112). l, Accuracy (mean ± s.e.m.) ...
