“…Methods to assess body protein status are presented in Table 3. The majority of studies utilised bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) [32,45,46,49e52,57,64,65,70e72], dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) [27,29,30,53,56,62,63,68] or skinfold techniques [31,44,55,58,66,69] for the anthropometric assessment of protein status. Protein status was also measured using deuterium dilution technique [73], total body electrical conductivity [48], peripheral quantitative computed tomography [43], total body potassium [59], and prompt gamma neutron capture analysis for total body nitrogen (TBN) [44].…”
