The results were presented in Mean±SD and percentages and analyzed with SPSS 16.0.ResultsIn all burn deaths among older adults, 41.6% of the victims were male and 58.4% were female with male: female ratio 1:1.4. Most common manner of deaths among elderly was accident (42.9%) followed by...
Existing works estimate the %TBSA using generic human models with predefined percentages for each body part. These generic human models do not consider the patients’ actual body shape. Furthermore, the estimation of wound size depends greatly on the doctor’s experience, resulting in inaccurate ...

The measure of the fat and muscle percentages (body composition) is not taken into account in these equations. This means that the equation is less accurate if you do not have a typical amount of muscle. The reason for the inaccuracy is that muscle will burn calories, while fat will not....
According to the American Council on Exercise, women with a body fat percentage of 21 percent to 24 percent fall into the "fitness" category. This means they have a healthy and athletic body but don't necessarily have the definition that comes with lower body fat percentages. ...
LA50 for total body burn area (TBSA) and only full thickness skin burn (FTSB) was 94 and 87%, respectively. The high survival rate, may relate primarily to the low percentages of older patients and of patients with severe burns. Inhalation injuries, infection and MOD are the main causes...
A controlled clinical trial run with overweight and obese adults found clinically significant weight loss (effect of -7.5%) at the end of the program with decreased glucose levels and body fat percentages. Stanford who found that digital self-management programs for diabetes helped participants reduce...
The percentages of full-thickness burns differed significantly by cause and were highest in electrical burns (95.5%, 517/539) and lowest in scald burns (21.0%, 608/2,893). Full-thickness burn areas were primarily concentrated in 5% or less TBSA (67.5%, 1,709/2,536) and 1% TBSA in ...
[14]The Rule of Nines estimation of body surface area burned is based on assigning percentages to different body areas. The entire head is estimated as 9% (4.5% for anterior and posterior). The entire trunk is estimated at 36% and can be further broken down into 18% for anterior ...
Numbers (percentages) described categorical variables, whereas means (SDs) and medians (IQRs) described continuous variables. Separate multivariable logistic regression models determined the association of open burn pit status with each headache outcome, adjusting for confounding effects at b...
