Bioimpedance analysis with a novel predictive equation - A reliable technique to estimate fat free mass in birth weight based cohorts of Asian Indian males

ConclusionsOur study findings substantiate the validity of Bio-impedance analysis (BIA) as a reliable and noninvasive tool for estimating body composition measures in birth-weight based cohorts of Asian Indian males. Further, we have devised a novel BIA-based predictive equation that can be useful in larger epidemiological studies to look at alterations in body fat in this cohort.
