performance, with consequences not only at a sporting level, but on overall health and daily …

Background This study investigated the practicality of Phase Angle (PhA) as a cellular
integrity indicator obtained from bioelectrical impedance and its feasible association with the …

Purpose The purpose of the present study was to evaluate whether evaluating the phase
angle (PhA), in a bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) is useful for estimating the …

Abstract Background/Objectives Resting energy expenditure (REE) constitutes the largest
component of total energy expenditure and undergoes an age-related decline that is …

sarcopenia and its components and to evaluate the effectiveness of PA in sarcopenia …

Background: Serum albumin has limitations as a nutritional marker in patients undergoing
peritoneal dialysis (PD) in that it is affected by inflammation, systemic disease …

Background Energy inadequacy has a great impact on health outcomes in older adult
patients; however, it is difficult to evaluate energy adequacy in these patients, especially in …

Background & aims Chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients are at increased risk of
sarcopenic muscle wasting, with increased mortality risk. Simple screening tests are …

Nutritional alterations are highly prevalent in older rather than adult hospitalized patients. In
these subjects, a loss of physical performance is dependent on the impairment of muscle …

In patients with heart failure, it is unknown whether the extracellular water
(ECW)/intracellular water (ICW) ratio is associated with muscle strength, and thus, it is not …
