Results: Median BMI was 27.8 kg/m2 (range 15.1–51.2) and median body fat percentage was 32.0 (range 5.0–54.0). The prevalence of excessive fatness was 62% (247/400 individuals were excessively fat), while the prevalence of obesity according to BMI was 42% (169/400 individuals were ...
The results showed issues on severe thinness, medium and morbid obesity classes as well a strong impact of BMI on the classification of the obesity classes. The classification can be seen as an aid tool to help managing weight problems by an integral subject-centered strategy.A.E. Martinez-...
46.0% men participants were overweight, 34.0% normal weight and 20.0% obese according to BMI. TBF has shown the same percentage of men being normal weight, while 22.0% was overweight and even 40.0% obese. Segment analysis results classified 38.0% as obese, 28.0% as normal weight, and 32.0%...
Results: With increasing WHO classification of BMI, Cornell index (RaVL+SV3), Cornell product index [(RaVL+SV3)RQRS duration], and LVM increased. On the other hand, SokolowLyon index (SV1+RV5) decreased. Cornell index correlated with LVM in normal weight group (r = 0.27, p = 0.015),...
To determine the impact of commonly used body fat percentage (%BF) references when evaluating the sensitivity, specificity and misclassifications of body mass index (BMI) for obesity screening in adolescence. A community-based sample of 3334 adolescents
Percentage of pre-pregnancy BMI classification disparity was calculated between three criteria. Gestational weight gain was categorized in adequate, low and high according to IOM. Regression models were used to analyze negative neonatal outcomes. Results: 601 pregnant adolescents were included, mean age ...
RESULTS: For both classification systems, the specificity for overweight was high for both sexes (0.95-1.00). The sensitivity was fairly high for the males (0.72-0.84) but was very low for the females (0.22-0.25). For the males, a BMI cutoff equal to the 85th percentile on a Swedish ...
