Journal ArticleDOI
Rheumatoid cachexia: cytokine-driven hypermetabolism accompanying reduced body cell mass in chronic inflammation.
Ronenn Roubenoff,Rebecca A. Roubenoff,Joseph G. Cannon,Joseph J. Kehayias,Hong Zhuang,Bess Dawson-Hughes,Charles A. Dinarello,Irwin H. Rosenberg +7 more
TL;DR: Loss of body cell mass is common in RA; cytokine production in RA is associated with altered energy metabolism and intake, despite a theoretically adequate diet; and TNF-alpha and IL-1 beta modulate energy metabolic and body composition in RA.
Book ChapterDOI
Measurement of Regional Body Fat in Vivo in Humans by Simultaneous Detection of Regional Carbon and Oxygen, Using Neutron Inelastic Scattering at Low Radiation Exposure
Joseph J. Kehayias,Hong Zhuang +1 more
TL;DR: New methods for measuring distribution of adipose tissue were generated for investigating the “male-type” obesity pattern, and direct techniques, such as the waist-to-hip ratio, have produced results consistent with this theory.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Use of fast neutrons for assessing sarcopenia by measuring body phosphorus: relevance to health and quality of life of the elderly
TL;DR: A model for measuring total body muscle is developed by applying the EPA method to total body phosphorus (TBP) and dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is used to evaluate the contribution of bone to TBP.
