Description

Highlights What are the main findings? A seated bioelectrical impedance sensor accurately estimated appendicular muscle mass against DXA in older adults.The Sergi prediction equation provided higher agreement and lower estimation error than the Kyle equation. What are the implications of the main findings? Seated bioelectrical impedance enables rapid, practical muscle mass assessment without compromising measurement validity.
