Journal:
European Journal of Clinical Nutrition
Topic:
The study developed and validated BIA equations to predict regional whole-body lean soft tissue composition (LSTM) by comparing them to x-ray densitometry (DXA) in healthy adults. The equations showed a strong correlation between predicted and measured LSTM for different body regions.

Topic:
Thirty years after the BIVA graph was created, this study on 2230 women and 2137 men provides new tolerance ellipses and reference values for phase angle in the adult population. The new data show a different distribution in the R-Xc plot with a higher phase angle.
