Body Mass Index and Agreement Between Bioimpedance and Anthropometry Estimates of Body Compartments in Anorexia Nervosa
Date:
Authors:
Piccoli A., Codognotto M., Di Pascoli L., Boffo G., Caregaro L.
Journal:
Journal of parenteral and enteral nutrition Topic:
Topic:
Analysis of FFM and FM by anthropometry and BIA have not shown adequate correlations on subjects with anorexia nervosa (AN) with BMI< 15 kg/m2. However, the bioimpedance values have followed a trend that could be useful as feedback in re-feeding AN patient (vector returns in the 75% percentile reference ellipse).

Journal:
Anales de pediatria
Topic:
Body composition analysis by BIA is an effective method for monitoring the treatment of pediatric subjects with anorexia nervosa (AN), as demonstrated by the significant increase of the phase angle during the follow-up.

Bioelectrical impedance phase angle in constitutionally lean females, ballet dancers and patients with anorexia nervosa
Date:
2009
Authors:
Marra M., Caldara A., Montagnese C., De Filippo E., Pasanisi F., Contaldo F., Scalfi L.
Journal:
European Journal of Clinical Nutrition
Topic:
Phase angle (PhA) discriminates between underweight subjects with anorexia nervosa (AN), thin subjects and ballet dancers. Compared to the control group, PhA was higher for ballet dancers, lower for AN subjects and equal for thin subjects.

Body composition in subjects with anorexia nervosa: bioelectrical impedance analysis and dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry
Date:
2012
Authors:
Bonaccorsi G., Bassetti A., Chiari S., Dirindelli P., Lorini C., Menicalli C., Santomauro F., Martinetti M.
Journal:
Eating and weight disorders
Topic:
The good correlation between bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) and DXA for estimating FFM and FM in patients with anorexia nervosa suggests that BIA could be a viable alternative for clinical assessments of such subjects.

Body composition and resting energy expenditure in women with anorexia nervosa: Is hyperactivity a protecting factor?
Date:
2019
Authors:
Manuelli M., Blundell J., Biino G., Cena H.
Journal:
Clinical Nutrition ESPEN
Topic:
Women with anorexia nervosa (AN) who sustain intense physical activity have shown potentially protective body and metabolic characteristics compared with AN subjects on diet and fasting. Phase angle (PhA) increased, FFM (Fat-Free Mass) decreased, and FM (Fat Mass) increased
