TLDR
Data indicate that the bioelectrical impedance technique is a reliable and valid approach for the estimation of human body composition and further validation of this method is recommended in subjects with abnormal body composition.About:

Single cross-sectional area of pectoralis muscle by computed tomography – correlation with bioelectrical impedance based skeletal muscle mass in healthy subjects
TL;DR: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the relation between pectoralis muscle areas on CT scans and total body skeletal muscle mass (SMM) in healthy subjects.

Validity of bioelectrical-impedance analysis in measuring changes in lean body mass during weight reduction.
TL;DR: BIA does not appear to be a valid method for measuring the small losses in LBM that occur during treatment of obesity with VLCDs.

Protein-energy malnutrition in cystic fibrosis patients
TL;DR: It is concluded that protein‐energy malnutrition is no longer acceptable in cystic fibrosis patients, except perhaps in end‐stage disease when lung transplantation is not considered, and nutritional management, including nutritional rehabilitation programmes, of cystic fibre patients is well established today.

Prediction of body composition in elderly men over 75 years of age
TL;DR: Some body composition predictions are unacceptable (at least for TBW) in older men, and care is recommended when selecting from these methods or equations, although the segmental impedance method is as good as, if not better than, anthropometry alone in predicting limb muscle mass (DXA) in Older men.

TL;DR: Within-subject and mixed designs of Factorial Design have been studied in this article, where the Principal Two-Factor Within-Factor Effects and Simple Effects have been used to estimate the effect size and power of interaction components.

The Analysis of Variance
TL;DR: In this paper, the basic theory of analysis of variance by considering several different mathematical models is examined, including fixed-effects models with independent observations of equal variance and other models with different observations of variance.

Densitometric analysis of body composition: revision of some quantitative assumptions*
TL;DR: It is shown that in a system consisting of two additive components which are mixed but the densities of which are known, the determination of the density of the system allows one to calculate the proportional masses of the two components.
