Body composition measures of obese adolescents by the deuterium oxide dilution method and by bioelectrical impedance

The objectives of the present study were to describe and compare the body composition variables determined by bioelectrical impedance (BIA) and the deuterium dilution method (DDM), to identify possible correlations and agreement between the two methods, and to construct a linear regression model inc...
