| bioelectrical impedance analysis device: Biomarkers in Liver Disease Victor R. Preedy, Vinood B. Patel, 2017-07-14 In the past decade there has been a major sea change in the way disease is diagnosed and investigated due to the advent of high throughput technologies, such as microarrays, lab on a chip, proteomics, genomics, lipomics, metabolomics etc. These advances have enabled the discovery of new and novel markers of disease relating to autoimmune disorders, cancers, endocrine diseases, genetic disorders, sensory damage, intestinal diseases etc. In many instances these developments have gone hand in hand with the discovery of biomarkers elucidated via traditional or conventional methods, such as histopathology or clinical biochemistry. Together with microprocessor-based data analysis, advanced statistics and bioinformatics these markers have been used to identify individuals with active disease or pathology as well as those who are refractory or have distinguishing pathologies. New analytical methods that have been used to identify markers of disease and is suggested that there may be as many as 40 different platforms. Unfortunately techniques and methods have not been readily transferable to other disease states and sometimes diagnosis still relies on single analytes rather than a cohort of markers. There is thus a demand for a comprehensive and focused evidenced-based text and scientific literature that addresses these issues. Hence the formulation of Biomarkers in Disease The series covers a wide number of areas including for example, nutrition, cancer, endocrinology, cardiology, addictions, immunology, birth defects, genetics, and so on. The chapters are written by national or international experts and specialists. |

| bioelectrical impedance analysis device: The Pick'n Mix Diet Michael Gleeson, 2020-12-01 So often people equate being slim with being healthy, and with so many people searching for ways to lose weight, dieting books are in abundance. But so few of these books actually back their information with scientific research and proven weight-loss methods, instead relying on celebrity to sell the latest fad. They often do little to help people achieve their weight-loss goals, leading to frustration and even excess weight gain. That's where The Pick 'n Mix Diet comes in! With this book, you will lose weight by using a very different approach from other diet and nutrition books. Unlike those books, the weight-loss plan presented here doesn't require sticking to the same boring diet for several months, but rather incorporates 10 different diets that can be changed every week. These diets include reduced carb, reduced fat, high protein, low energy density, Japanese, flexitarian, and various intermittent fasting diets—all backed by scientific evidence. By picking and mixing various diets, you will prevent dieting boredom, have fewer cravings, and will be more likely to stick to your weight-loss plan. More importantly, the variety will ensure there are no nutrient deficiencies. In addition, the diets are combined with light to moderate exercise so that you will only lose fat, not lean muscle. Sticking to one boring diet for weeks on end is not the way to lose weight. Rather, this novel but evidence-based approach to weight loss is guaranteed to be effective, healthy, and safe. With The Pick 'n Mix Diet, you can achieve any weight-loss goal! |

| bioelectrical impedance analysis device: Assessing Prevalence and Trends in Obesity National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine, Health and Medicine Division, Food and Nutrition Board, Committee on Evaluating Approaches to Assessing Prevalence and Trends in Obesity, 2016-10-30 Obesity has come to the forefront of the American public health agenda. The increased attention has led to a growing interest in quantifying obesity prevalence and determining how the prevalence has changed over time. Estimates of obesity prevalence and trends are fundamental to understanding and describing the scope of issue. Policy makers, program planners, and other stakeholders at the national, state, and local levels are among those who search for estimates relevant to their population(s) of interest to inform their decision-making. The differences in the collection, analysis, and interpretation of data have given rise to a body of evidence that is inconsistent and has created barriers to interpreting and applying published reports. As such, there is a need to provide guidance to those who seek to better understand and use estimates of obesity prevalence and trends. Assessing Prevalence and Trends in Obesity examines the approaches to data collection, analysis, and interpretation that have been used in recent reports on obesity prevalence and trends at the national, state, and local level, particularly among U.S. children, adolescents, and young adults. This report offers a framework for assessing studies on trends in obesity, principally among children and young adults, for policy making and program planning purposes, and recommends ways decision makers and others can move forward in assessing and interpreting reports on obesity trends. |
