A comparison of bioelectrical impedance analysis and air displacement plethysmography to assess body composition in children

BackgroundAccurate assessment of body composition (BC) is important to investigate the development of childhood obesity. A bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) device is portable and inexpensive compared with air displacement plethysmography (ADP) for the assessment of BC and is widely used in chi...
