Still, no regional fat mass (FM) assessment models have been provided. Hence, we aimed to develop and validate BIA-derived equations to predict regional FM against dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) in healthy adults. One hundred and forty-eight adults (77 females) were included in this cross-sectional investigation. DXA assessed whole-body and regional FM, and raw bioelectrical parameters of distinct body regions were measured using a 50 kHz phase-sensitive BIA analyzer. BIA-derived equations were developed for each sex using a stepwise multiple linear regression approach in 2/3 of the sample and cross-validated in the remaining sample. The BIA-derived equations exhibited moderate to very strong relationships (p < 0.001) with DXA-measured FM of all body regions in females (r=0.650 to 0.907) and males (r=0.401 to 0.807). Also, for all the models, no significant deviation from linearity was found (p>0.10). Agreement analyses revealed no associations between the differences and the means of the predicted and DXA-derived FM. However, the limits of agreement were large, with individual errors exceeding 50% in females and 70% in males. While the new BIA-derived equations provide a valid estimate of regional FM in middle-aged healthy adults at the population level, demonstrating a cost-effective alternative to DXA for assessing regional FM, caution is advised when applying these equations for individual-level analysis.</p>","PeriodicalId":9257,"journal":{"name":"British Journal of Nutrition","volume":" ","pages":"1-22"},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2025-03-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143656100","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We determined the association between total 25-hydroxyvitamin-D [25(OH)D] and PTH in adolescents living with HIV, in Zambia and Zimbabwe. Adolescents (11-19 years) perinatally-infected with HIV and established on antiretroviral therapy (ART) for ≥6 months were recruited into a cross-sectional study. Socio-demographic and clinical characteristics were recorded, anthropometry measured, and fasted serum concentrations of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin-D (1,25(OH)₂D), total 25(OH)D and intact PTH measured. The association between total 25(OH)D and PTH was examined using natural cubic spline regression modelling. 842 participants (female: 53.2%) with median age 15.5 (IQR:13.2-17.9) years were enrolled.

A total of 312 patients admitted to Shanghai Tenth People's Hospital between September 2022 and June 2023 were retrospectively included. Nutritional assessments were conducted using the GLIM framework, employing grip strength, upper arm circumference, and calf circumference as criteria for muscle content evaluation. The diagnostic value of these tools was compared against the GNRI as a reference standard. Among the participants, 127 (40.71%) were diagnosed as malnourished by GNRI, while the GLIM assessments yielded 138 (44.23%), 128 (41.03%), and 162 (51.92%) malnutrition diagnoses based on grip strength, calf circumference, and upper arm circumference, respectively. Both GNRI and GLIM-grip strength were significantly associated with complications and length of hospital stays. Notably, using GNRI as a reference, GLIM-grip strength demonstrated good consistency in diagnosing malnutrition (K value = 0.692, P < 0.001), with calf circumference having the highest diagnostic value.
