RESUMO
BACKGROUND: The measurement of adipose tissue (AT) depots in vivo requires expensive imaging methods not accessible to most clinicians and researchers. The study aim was to derive mathematical models to predict total AT (TAT) and subdepots from total body fat derived from a dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) scan. METHODS: Models were developed to predict magnetic resonance imaging-derived TAT and subdepots subcutaneous AT, visceral AT, and intermuscular AT from DXA total body fat (Fat(DXA)) using cross-sectional data (time 0 (T0)) and validated results using 1 (T1) and 2 (T2) y follow-up data. Subjects were 176 multiethnic healthy children ages 5-17 y at T0. Twenty-two were measured at T1 and T2. TAT was compared with Fat(DXA). RESULTS: At T0, TAT was greater than Fat(DXA) (12.5 ± 8.4 vs.12.0 ± 9.4 kg; P < 0.0001), with a quadratic relationship between TAT and Fat(DXA) that varied by sex. Predicted mean TATs were not different from measured TATs: T1: (9.84 ± 4.45 kg vs. 9.50 ± 4.37 kg; P = 0.11); T2: (12.94 ± 6.75 kg vs. 12.89 ± 7.09 kg; P = 0.76). The quadratic relationship was not influenced by race or age. CONCLUSION: In general, the prediction equations for TAT and subdepots were consistent with the measured values using T1 and T2 data.

BACKGROUND: Currently available infant body composition measurement methods are impractical for routine clinical use. The study developed anthropometric equations (AEs) to estimate fat mass (FM, kg) during the first year using air displacement plethysmography (PEA POD® Infant Body Composition System) and Infant quantitative magnetic resonance (Infant-QMR) as criterion methods. METHODS: Multi-ethnic full-term infants (n = 191) were measured at 3 days, 15 and 54 weeks. Sex, race/ethnicity, gestational age, age (days), weight-kg (W), length-cm (L), head circumferences-cm (HC), skinfold thicknesses mm [triceps (TRI), thigh (THI), subscapular (SCP), and iliac (IL)], and FM by PEA POD® and Infant-QMR were collected. Stepwise linear regression determined the model that best predicted FM. RESULTS: Weight, length, head circumference, and skinfolds of triceps, thigh, and subscapular, but not iliac, significantly predicted FM throughout infancy in both the Infant-QMR and PEA POD models. Sex had an interaction effect at 3 days and 15 weeks for both the models. The coefficient of determination [R2 ] and root mean square error were 0.87 (66 g) at 3 days, 0.92 (153 g) at 15 weeks, and 0.82 (278 g) at 54 weeks for the Infant-QMR models; 0.77 (80 g) at 3 days and 0.82 (195 g) at 15 weeks for the PEA POD models respectively. CONCLUSIONS: Both PEA POD and Infant-QMR derived models predict FM using skinfolds, weight, head circumference, and length with acceptable R2 and residual patterns.

BACKGROUND: LIFT (Lifestyle Intervention for Two) trial found that intervening in women with overweight and obesity through promoting healthy diet and physical activity to control gestational weight gain (GWG) resulted in neonates with greater weight, lean mass and head circumference and similar fat mass at birth. Whether these neonate outcomes are sustained at 1-year was the focus of this investigation. METHODS: Measures included body composition by PEA POD air displacement plethysmography (ADP) and Echo Infant quantitative magnetic resonance (QMR) and head circumference at birth (n = 169), 14 (n = 136) and 54 weeks (n = 137). Differences in fat and lean mass between lifestyle intervention (LI) and Usual care (UC) groups were examined using ANCOVA adjusting for maternal age and BMI, GWG, offspring sex and age. RESULTS: Compared to UC, LI infants had similar weight (112 ± 131 g; P = .40), fat mass (14 ± 80 g; P = .86), lean mass (100 ± 63 g; P = .12) at 14 weeks and similar weight (168 ± 183 g; P = .36), fat mass (148 ± 124 g; P = .24), lean mass (117 ± 92 g; P = .21) at 54 weeks. Head circumference was greater in LI at 54 weeks (0.46 ± 2.1 cm P = .03). CONCLUSIONS: Greater lean mass observed at birth in LI offspring was not sustained at 14 and 54 weeks, whereas the greater head circumference in LI offspring persisted at 54 weeks.

We previously derived a cellular level approach for a whole-body resting energy expenditure (REE) prediction model by using organ and tissue mass measured by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) combined with their individual cellularity and assumed stable-specific resting metabolic rates. Although this approach predicts REE well in both young and elderly adults, there were no studies in adolescents that specifically evaluated REE in relation to organ-tissue mass. It is unclear whether the approach can be applied to rapidly growing adolescents. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the applicability of the previous developed REE prediction model in adolescents, and to compare its applicability in young and elderly adults. Specifically, we tested the hypothesis that measured REE can be predicted from a combination of individual organ and tissue mass and their related cellularity. This was a 2-year longitudinal investigation. Twenty healthy male subjects with a mean age of 14.7 years had REE, organ and tissue mass, body cell mass, and fat-free mass (FFM) measured by indirect calorimetry, whole-body MRI, whole-body (40)K counting and dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry, respectively. The predicted REE (REEp; mean +/- SD, 1,487 +/- 238 kcal/day) was correlated with the measured REE (REEm, 1,606 +/- 237 kcal/day, r = 0.76, P < 0.001). The mean difference (118 +/- 165 kcal/day) between REEm and REEp was significant (P = 0.0047), accounting for 7.3% of REEm for the entire group. The present study, the first of its type in adolescents, does not support the applicability of the organ-tissue-based REE prediction model during rapid adolescent growth. A modified general REE prediction model is thus suggested which may account for the higher REE/FFM ratio observed in adolescents.

OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to determine whether controlling maternal gestational weight gain (GWG) influences adipose tissue distribution at 1 year postpartum. METHODS: Women with overweight or obesity (n = 210, BMI ≥ 25 or ≥ 30) were randomized to a lifestyle intervention (LI) designed to control GWG or to usual obstetrical care (UC). Measures included anthropometry, whole-body magnetic resonance imaging for visceral (VAT), intermuscular, and subcutaneous adipose tissue, and cardiometabolic risk factors in pregnancy (15 and 35 weeks) and after delivery (15 and 59 weeks). RESULTS: Baseline (15 weeks) characteristics were similar (mean [SD]: age, 33.8 [4.3] years; weight, 81.9 [13.7] kg; BMI, 30.4 [4.5]; gestational age at randomization, 14.9 [0.8] weeks). LI had less GWG (1.79 kg; P = 0.003) and subcutaneous adipose tissue gain at 35 weeks gestation (P < 0.01). UC postpartum weight (2.92 kg) was higher at 15 weeks but not different from baseline or LI at 59 weeks postpartum. Postpartum VAT increased from baseline in LI by 0.23 kg at 15 weeks and 0.55 kg at 59 weeks; in UC, it increased by 0.34 kg at 15 and 59 weeks. Intermuscular adipose tissue remained elevated in LI (0.22 kg) at 59 weeks. VAT was associated with several cardiometabolic risk factors at 59 weeks. CONCLUSIONS: Despite no weight retention at 59 weeks postpartum, women had increased VAT by ~30%. Postpartum modifiable behaviors are warranted to lower the risk of VAT retention.

OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to determine the effectiveness of controlling maternal gestational weight gain (GWG) in the second and third trimesters on neonate body composition. METHODS: Two hundred ten healthy women with overweight (25 > BMI < 30) or obesity (BMI ≥ 30) were randomly assigned to a lifestyle intervention (LI) program focused on controlling GWG through nutrition and activity behaviors or to usual obstetrical care (UC). Infant fat and fat-free mass (FFM) at birth were measured by using air displacement plethysmography (PEA POD) and by using quantitative magnetic resonance (QMR). RESULTS: At baseline, there were no between-group differences in maternal characteristics (mean [SD]): age: 33.8 (4.3) years, weight: 81.9 (13.7) kg, BMI: 30.4 (4.5), and gestational age at randomization: 14.9 (0.8) weeks. GWG was less in the LI group by 1.79 kg (P = 0.003) or 0.0501 kg/wk (P = 0.002). Compared with UC infants, LI infants had greater weight (131 ± 59 g P = 0.03), FFM (98 ± 45 g; P = 0.03) measured by PEA POD, and lean mass (105 ± 38 g; P = 0.006) measured by QMR. Fat mass and percent fat were not significantly different. CONCLUSIONS: Intervening in women with overweight and obesity through behaviors promoting healthy diet and physical activity to control GWG resulted in neonates with similar fat and greater FFM.
