Sarcopenia: Its assessment, etiology, pathogenesis, consequences and future perspectives (2008, background): “Ultrasound can accurately measure cross-sectional thicknesses and areas in subcutaneous adipose and muscles tissues (37, 38), and bioelectrical impedance can provide estimates of muscle mass, but these can have large errors and are sample and population specific (39-42).”
Prevalence of sarcopenia in the world: a systematic review and meta- analysis of general population studies (2017, background): “BIA is known to underestimate fat mass and overestimate muscle mass [24].”
Body composition and mortality in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. (2005, methodology): “The percentage of patients theoretically at risk for physical disability was assessed by using the cutoffs for physical disability risk set by Janssen et al. Subjects from NHANES III were classified as physically disabled (ie, having difficulty performing activities of daily living) if they answered”
Sarcopenia: European consensus on definition and diagnosis (2010, background): “Prediction equations have been validated for multiethnic adults [36] and reference values established for adult white men and women, including older subjects [37–39].”
