Predictive equation for assessing appendicular lean soft tissue mass using bioelectric impedance analysis in older adults: Effect of body fat distribution.

TLDR
In this article, the authors developed and cross-validated a BIA-based equation for estimating ALST with dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) or bioimpedance analysis (BIA), and compared their new formula to three previously published models.

Two-megahertz impedance index prediction equation for appendicular lean mass in Korean older people

TL;DR: In this paper , a muscle-specific frequency BIA equation for appendicular lean mass (ALM) using multifrequency BIA (MF-BIA) with dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) was validated.

Development and validation of bioelectrical impedance prediction equations estimating regional lean soft tissue mass in middle-aged adults

TL;DR: The developed BIA-derived equations provide a valid estimate of regional LSTM in middle-aged healthy adults, representing a cost-effective and time-efficient alternative to DXA for the assessment and identification of L STM imbalances in both clinical and sport-specific contexts.

Age-Related Skeletal Muscle Dysfunction Is Aggravated by Obesity: An Investigation of Contractile Function, Implications and Treatment.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provided a review of the literature to understand the effect of obesity on the age-induced reduction in skeletal muscle contractile function and the consequences of these changes to whole-body functional performance.

Are body circumferences able to predict strength, muscle mass and bone characteristics in obesity? A preliminary study in women.

TL;DR: The current findings show that BCs represent a simple, suitable anthropometric measurement with a potential to predict several lean mass components as well as lower limbs strength in obese females and the proposed predictors need to be validated in a larger sample of participants and in obese males.
