Body fluid compartmentsextracellular fluidintracellular fluidtotal body waterDisorders of fluid balance and electrolyte homeostasis are commonly observed in critically ill patients and in those who require emergency anaesthesia. Consequently, anaesthetists and intensive care physicians must understand the ...
The following observations were made in infants and children suffering from malnutrition of different causes: 1. A percentage increase in extracellular fluid volume in relation to the actual body weight was the only consistent change in the extracellular fluid compartment. 2. The occurrence of edema ...
Total body water (TBW) is all the water contained throughout your tissues, blood, bones, and various fluid compartments. TBW is a significant fraction of the body both by weight and volume. The average adult male’s weight is approximately 60 percent water. The number for an average adult ...
At low frequencies, the current flows primarily through extracellular fluids; at high frequencies, it completely penetrates all body tissues. Measures of bioelectrical impedance at multiple frequencies can differentiate total and extracellular fluid compartments in the body. This has considerable value for ...
of body composition are based on the four compartment (4C) method. This splits the body into the compartments: fat, protein, water and mineral mass and uses a variety of methods such as dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA),total body plethysmographyanddeuteriumdilution measurements to measure...
to assess the actual mass of adipose tissue in proportion to muscle, bone, water, and the rest of the human tissue. In this chapter, we discuss the different techniques to measure body composition and relevance to metabolic health and discuss the accuracy and cost-effectiveness of the methods....
The composition and function of follicular fluid Extracellular vesicles (EVs) EVsare membrane-bound particles that serve as transporters for regulatory molecules such as proteins, microRNAs (miRNAs), and lipids [6]. Among these, exosomes are small EVs (SEVs) released from intracellular compartments,...
Fetal body composition is an important determinant of body composition at birth, and it is likely to be an important determinant at later stages in life. The purpose of this work is to provide a comprehensive overview by presenting data from previously published studies that report on body compos...

The appropriate use of predictive equations in estimating body composition through bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) depends on the device used and the subject’s age, geographical ancestry, healthy status, physical activity level and sex. However,
