Bioelectrical impedance vector analysis and phase angle in boys with Duchenne muscular dystrophy

Bioelectrical impedance vector analysis and phase angle in boys with Duchenne muscular dystrophy

Background: Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a disease characterized by progressive loss of functional muscle mass followed by changes in body composition. Objective: This study aimed to describe and evaluate bioimpedance parameters in boys with DMD. Design: This cross-sectional, descriptive stu...
