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:

Validation of a leg-to-leg bioimpedance analysis system in assessing body composition in postmenopausal women.
TL;DR: The leg-to-leg BIA system can provide simple, rapid and highly reproducible measurements of body composition for groups, but it has limited accuracy for the assessment of the individual.
Journal ArticleDOI
Validity and accuracy of regional bioelectrical impedance devices to determine whole-body fatness.
TL;DR: This study determined the reproducibility and accuracy of two commercial impedance devices that use upper (hand- to-hand) or lower (foot-to-foot) body contact electrode placements in adults with a wide range of body fatness.

Usual dietary isoflavone intake and body composition in postmenopausal women.
TL;DR: Investigation of isoflavone consumption from a typical Western diet and measures of total body fat, body fat distribution and lean body mass suggests that usual dietary is oflavone intake is associated with reduced total bodyfat and may consequently have a role in the prevention of chronic disease.

Estimation of Total Body and Extracellular Water Using Single-and Multiple-Frequency Bioimpedance
TL;DR: Compared with SFB, the MFB approach is a more precise and less biased predictor of TBW and ECW volumes in young, healthy adults, and may offer more accurate assessment in subjects with aberrant physiology.
Journal ArticleDOI
Methodologies to assess paediatric adiposity.
TL;DR: The core clinical measurements of weight, height, BMI and circumferences are sufficient to enable diagnosis of paediatric overweight and obesity while more technical tools provide further insight.

Design and Analysis - A Researcher's Handbook
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.
