NCT01471938

Brief Summary

The aim of the study is to apply and adapt device specific body composition formulas to various ethnic groups. Bases are prediction equations that are generated in the clinical investigation "Generation of prediction equation to analyze body composition of adults based on Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (BIA)". The study bears the code BCA-01.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (6)

  • Bioelectrical Impedance (Resistance and Reactance) of 5 and 50 kHz for one body side

    about 1 hour

  • Bioelectrical Impedance (Resistance and Reactance) of 50 kHz for all 4 extremities

    about 1 hour

  • Bone Mineral Content (BMC) based on DXA (Dual X-Ray Absorptiometry)

    BMC is used to calculate Fat Free Mass (FFM). In addition to that Body Volume, Total Body Water (TBW) and Body Weight is needed. DXA is used as reference measurement for Skeletal Muscle Mass (SMM) as well.

    about 30 minutes

  • Body Volume based on Air Displacement Plethysmography (ADP)

    Body Volume is used to calculate FFM in addition to DXA, TBW and Body Weight.

    about 30 minutes

  • TBW

    A D2O dose of 400 mg per kg body weight mixed with tap water is administered orally in the morning fasting and after a 2 hour fluid abstention. The distribution of the stable isotope in the TBW is completed after 4 hours. During this period, the subject remains fasting. Two venous blood samples of 10 ml whole blood are taken immediately before and four hours after taking D2O. The plasma samples are analyzed using Isoptopic Ratio Mass Spectrometry (IRMS).

    within 4 hours

  • ECW

    Orally administered NaBr is resorbed quickly and completely and almost exclusively distributes in the extracellular compartment. Blood samples of 10 ml are taken immediately before and 4 hours after oral application of 50 mg NaBr per kg body weight. The serum sample is analyzed by X-Ray Fluorescence Spectroscopy (XRF).

    within 4 hours

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Bioelectrical Impedance (Resistance and Reactance) of 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 7.5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 75, 100, 150, 200, 300, 500, 750 and 1,000 kHz

    about 1 hour

  • SMM based on Magnet Resonance Imaging (MRI)

    about 1 hour

  • Bioelectrical Impedance (Resistance and Reactance) in sitting, lying and standing body position

    about 1 hour
