The changes with age of the anatomical distribution of fat

Effects of body fat on weight concerns, dating, and sexual activity: A longitudinal analysis of Black and White adolescent girls.

“…Analyses of individual skinfold measures in which the same set of predictor variables was used show race differences on subscapular measures, but not on tricep and bicep measures. These findings are consistent with other data (Blair, Habicht, Sims, Sylwester, & Abraham, 1984; Garn & Clark, 1976; Mueller, 1982) indicating race differences in the pattern of fat distribution, with Blacks tending toward greater accumulation of trunk fat…”

Measurement of subcutaneous adipose tissue topography (SAT-Top) by means of a new optical device, LIPOMETER, and the evaluation of standard factor coefficients in healthy subjects

“…The factor analysis plot presents the values for healthy men and women and different age groups. The main characteristics and differences of the different subject groups can be easily depicted, e.g., extremities SAT-Top decreases in healthy women and in healthy men from the first to the fifth age groups, which confirms the results of Mueller (1982).…”

Orthogonal factor coefficient development of subcutaneous adipose tissue topography (SAT‐Top) in girls and boys

“…Furthermore, these masculinizing characteristics in body fat development might be predictors of chronic diseases such as diabetes (Mueller, 1982;Möller et al, 2000b;Tafeit et al, 2000). The age period described in the present paper could be a sensitive time for developing such predictive characteristics.…”
