Phase angle (PhA) is a recently proposed marker of nutritional status in many clinical
conditions. Its use in patients with obesity presents different critical concerns due to the …

Background: Phase angle (PhA) has been used as mortality prognostic, but there are no
studies about its possible use as a screening tool. Therefore, an assessment of the possible …

Malnutrition is a risk factor for disease progression and poor prognosis in chronic kidney
disease (CKD). However, the complexity of nutritional status assessment limits its clinical …

Background This study aimed to investigate the association between phase angle (PhA) and
sarcopenia and evaluate its performance as a sarcopenia predictor in patients receveing …

Phase angle (PhA) is measured using bioimpedance analysis and calculated using body
reactance and resistance in the waveform at 50 kHz. Further studies are necessary to clarify …

The presence of sarcopenia has been associated with the worst outcome of Crohn's disease
(CD). At present, no studies have evaluated the impact of ustekinumab (UST) in terms of its …

Body composition measurement plays an important role in the nutritional diagnosis and
treatment of diseases. In the past 30 years, the detection of body composition based on …

Background Disability in activities of daily living (ADL) significantly increases the risk of
mortality among patients undergoing hemodialysis. Malnutrition and decreased exercise …

Background: The world witnessed the emergence of a global pandemic. Individuals with
chronic illnesses like chronic kidney disease (CKD), already known to be immunologically …

Introduction: Phase angle (PhA), derived from bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA), is the
angle of vector determined by the body's resistance and reactance. It indicates cellular …
