研究包括身高、体重、三头肌皮褶、肩胛下皮褶、上臂围和肘部宽度的测量，这些数据来自第一次和第二次全国健康与营养调查（NHANES I和NHANES II）的数据集，来自21752名年龄在25至74岁之间的多种族横断面样本。根据这些数据，将所有种族分为两组：25岁至54岁的成年人和55岁至74岁的老年人，根据身高、性别和框架大小，建立了体重、皮肤褶皱和无骨上臂肌肉面积的百分位数。这些新的标准可以用来区分那些有肥胖和营养不良风险的人。建议参照现行标准，结合年龄校正因素，对当代成年人和老年人的人体营养状况和健康状况进行评估。
The study includes measurements of height, weight, triceps skinfold, subscapular skinfold, upper arm circumference, and elbow breadth of a cross-sectional multiracial sample of 21,752 subjects aged 25 to 74 yr derived from the data sets of the 1st and 2nd National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys (NHANES I and NHANES II). Based on these data, percentiles of weight, skinfolds, and bone-free upper arm muscle area by height, sex, and frame size were established for all races combined in 2 groups: adults aged 25 to 54 yr and the elderly aged 55 to 74 yr. These new standards can be used to differentiate those who are at risk of being obese and undernourished. It is recommended that assessment of anthropometric nutritional status and health status of comtemporary adult and elderly populations be made with reference to the present standards in conjunction with age correction factors.
