BODY WATER SPACES AND CELLULAR HYDRATION DURING HEALTHY AGING
Age-related changes in the proportions of intracellular or extra-cellular water to total body water and in the ratio of total body water to fat-free mass are debatable. These are important issues both for medical reasons [...]
VALIDITY OF BIOELECTRICAL IMPEDANCE ANALYSIS TO ESTIMATE BODY COMPOSITION CHANGES AFTER BARIATRIC SURGERY IN PREMENOPAUSAL MORBIDLY WOMEN
In obese patients, subtle variations of the hydration of soft tissues can propagate errors in bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) measures of body composition. Bioelectrical impedance vector analysis (BIVA) is a useful method to evaluate tissue [...]

CHRONIC CELLULAR DEHYDRATION IN THE AGED PATIENT
BACKGROUND: As a reduction of water spaces is expected in the elderly because of fat-free mass loss, disease is often associated with increased hydration. The present study compared water spaces and cellular hydration in adults, [...]
