The bioelectrical impedance analysis [BIA] international database: aims, scope,...
Silva, Analiza M; Campa, Francesco; Stagi, Silvia; Gobbo, Luís A.; Buffa, Roberto; Toselli, Stefania; Silva, Diego Augusto SantosBackground: Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) is a technique widely used for estimating body composition and health-related parameters. The technology is relatively simple, quick, and non-invasive, and is currently used globally in diverse settings, including private clinicians' offices, sports and health clubs, and hospitals, and across a spectrum of age, body weight, and disease states. BIA parameters ca...

Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) shows promise as an easy to use, rapid, and non-invasive tool to evaluate body composition. The objectives of this study were to: (a) develop BIA prediction equations to estimate total body water (TBW) a...
