Abstract

Background . Body composition measurement is very important for early nutritional care in hemodialysis patients. Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is a gold standard test, but clinically limited. Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) with multifrequency technique is a practical and reliable tool. Objective . This cross-sectional study was aimed to compare the agreement of BIA with DXA in measurement of body composition in hemodialysis patients and to evaluate their associated factors. Methods . Body composition was measured by 2 BIA methods (InBody S10 and InBody 720) and DXA after a hemodialysis session. A total of 69 measurements were included. Pearson’s correlation and Bland and Altman analysis were used to determine the correlation of body composition between methods and to compare the methods agreement, respectively. Results . The correlation coefficients of body compositions were strong between DXA and InBody S10 (fat mass index (FMI): r = 0.95 , fat-free mass index (FFMI): r = 0.78 ) and also between DXA and InBody 720 (FMI: r = 0.96 , FFMI: r = 0.81 ). Comparing to DXA, the means of each body composition measured by InBody S10 method were not significantly different in each gender, but differences were found in FM, %FM, and FMI measured by InBody 720. Conclusions . In maintenance hemodialysis patients, the measurement of body composition with DXA and both BIA methods had highly significant correlations; practically, BIA method could be used as an instrument to follow FM and FFM and to measure the edematous stage. Further studies with large populations are warranted.

  • Several studies indicated comparable outcomes between DXA and MF-BIA.

    “Several studies have indicated comparable outcomes between DXA and MF-BIA (26–29).”

    From Transforming body composition with semaglutide in adults with obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus (2024) · cites this paper as [28]

    Materials and Methods §2.2 identifies both devices as multifrequency BIA analyzers. Results §3 reports strong correlations with DXA and no significant mean differences for InBody S10, supporting comparable outcomes for that model. But InBody 720 differed significantly on several measures, and both models had wide limits of agreement with DXA, so the unqualified claim needs qualification. (LLM, conf=0.85)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
