Methods: We conducted a retrospective review of 88 Korean soldiers 0.35 was used to determine the presence of liver fibrosis. Results: Among the 88 patients, 38 were classified as having significant fibrosis. In the univariate analysis, muscle mass percentage (MMP), muscle-to-fat ratio...
The extent of sarcopenia judged by the muscle/bone ratio was approximately twice that determined when normalising to height squared. These data suggest that the muscle/bone ratio captures the intra-individual loss of muscle mass during ageing, and that the age-related loss of muscle mass may be...
The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between 2D:4D ratio as an indicator of in utero androgen exposure and MM and MS in elderly patients. A total of 151 older adults were included. Calf-circumference (CC) and skeletal muscle mass index (SMI) were used for the ...
Assays of muscle mass to body mass ratio (a), fiber number (b), proportion of centrally-nucleated regenerating fibers (c), and muscle fiber cross-sectional area (d) indicate no difference in muscle growth or regeneration between WT BMT/mdx and LIF BMT/mdx recipients. N = 5 per ...
Maximize strength to body weight ratio (you can’t afford excess “non functional” weight) Increase absolute strength in the shoulders, lats and “core” (I know the “c” word is way over used lately) Balance your training program to keep support muscles and antagonists in good condition ...
However, due to the initial rapid loss of body mass, calorie restricted mice strongly increased relative grip strength (N·g body mass−1) over the initial 2-3 months before displaying a similar age-related decline in relative grip strength as control mice from 22 to 30 months (Fig. 1E...
Results: A significant correlation was found between average steps per day and %BF (-0.713, P < 0.0001); bodymass index (BMI) (-0.417, P < 0.0001); waist circumference (-0.616; P < 0.0001); hip circumference (-0,278; P = 0.013); and waist-to-hip ratio (-0.652; P < 0.0001)....
Skeletal muscle mass (SMM) makes up approximately 30–35% of totalbody massin averagely trained younger adults[1]and steadily decreases with progressing age[2,3]. Muscle cell metabolism is characterized by continuous buildup and degradation (1.2% turnover rates per day)[4], which, if in a ...
Fat to muscle mass ratio (FMR), a novel index integrating fat and muscle composition, has garnered attention in age-related conditions such as type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and neurodegenerative diseases. Despite this research on the relationship between FMR and cognitive impairment (CI) in T2D...
(24 years), body fat mass tripled as children gained weight. However, this increase in body fat was not associated with signs of subclinical atherosclerosis progression likely due to the significant increase in muscle mass. A muscle mass-to-fat mass ratio of 4:1 (MM4-FM1) may promote ...
