Comparison of the strength of association between 3
anthropometric measurements (WHtR, WC, BMI) with glycaemic control using risk estimates
Dawn Comstock, PhD, Assistant Professor Center for Injury Research and Policy, is entitled, "Can
Anthropometric Measurements Explain Gender Differences in Concussion Rates Among High School Basketball, Soccer and Lacrosse Players?
The
anthropometric measurements, grip strength measurement, standing balance assessment, blood pressure and resting heart measurement and collection of blood samples must be conducted by trained nurses in the homes of study members.
Anthropometric measurements were taken and UIC and goiter were used to estimate iodine status.
Anthropometric measurements (height and weight) and micronutrient assessments (for iron, iodine and vitamin A) were used to determine nutritional status.

Anthropometric measurements for participants attending the Repatriation General Hospital Falls Clinic between 23 April and 27 September 2001.
To prove that dehydration does not lead to a loss of skeletal muscle mass in ultra-endurance performance, further studies with
anthropometric measurements and markers of hydration status (haematological indices like haemoglobin and haematocrit, urinary indices like urine osmolality and urine specific gravity or bioelectrical impedance analysis) should be performed.
Anthropometric measurements, bone age, DEXA scan (Lunar prodigy 2000), fasting serum glucose, insulin, lipid profile, IGF I, IGF II, IGFBP3 and GHBP were performed.
The negative correlation between PYY concentrations and body weight, along with (a) the negative correlations between ghrelin and
anthropometric measurements and (b) the positive correlation between PYY and ghrelin suggest a more complex role of these peptides than initially recognized.
Baseline data collection usually includes a medical history, standardized medical examination, dietary assessment, laboratory tests, and
anthropometric measurements.
All
anthropometric measurements rely on the skill of the person taking the measurement, and the relative accuracy of the technique as a measure of adiposity must be validated against a 'gold standard' technique.
In two cases missing prepregnancy body mass index (BMI; weight in kilograms/height in square centimeters) was predicted by regressing other maternal
anthropometric measurements on prepregnancy BMI for the sample of 220 ([r.
