pubmed:abstractText |
The methods commonly employed in body composition study in elderly persons derive fat-free mass (FFM) by measures of total body water (TBW); these methods assume FFM hydration constant (TBW/FFM = 0.732). The aim of our study was to verify the accuracy of the TBW method in FFM estimation and to study the variability of fat-free mass hydration (TBW/FFM) in healthy elderly subjects.
