The sample of variables included five anthropometric measures (body height, body weight, abdominal skinfold, pectoral skinfold and front thigh skinfold) by which two body composition indicators - body mass index (BMI) and body fat percentage (FAT %) were calcula...
Obesity has been defined as an 'abnormal and excessive fat accumulation that may impair health'.7 In practice, obesity is diagnosed by body mass index (BMI), which is taken as a surrogate of percentage fat mass. However, BMI has some obvious limitations related to the assessment of fat ...
Human Variation and Body Mass Index : A Review of the Universality of BMI Cut-offs, Gender and Urban-rural Differences, and Secular Changes Use of BMI as a surrogate for body fat percentage is debatable and universal BMI cut-off points do not seem appropriate; lower cut-off points than cur...

's risk for health problems. While it's a simple number to understand and easy to determine—it involves only height and weight—it isn't always accurate because it doesn't include other important numbers, such as the percentage of body fat or where that fat has accumulated on the body....

Comparison of the percentage oxygen consumption (g) demonstrates distinct oxygen utilization pattern of each cell type. Cumulative data from eight healthy donors expressed as mean±s.e.m. *Pr0.05, **Pr0.005. superoxide, which is frequently known as the oxidative burst. This parameter has been ...
The percentage of cells present in each cluster per total number (10,615) of cells under analysis is indicated. Markers associated with the indicated cell types are listed in Figure S2B and Table S1A. (G) tSNE plot for the three aggregated WO replicate datasets (total 16,164 cells). ...
While the percentage of fat utilization at this point is already declining, after an RQ of .87 it begins to drop much more quickly. Since the lactate produced by anaerobic activity inhibits fat usage, the percentage of sugar used increases dramatically. ...
Each rat was placed in the center of the plus maze and observed for the latency to move into an arm, as well as the number of entries into and percentage time spent in each of the open and closed arms. The animal was regarded as having moved into an arm when all four paws had ...
