CORE--BODY COMPOSITION AND EXERCISE

他们的身体成分/锻炼核心将提供全面的身体 组成分析以及本课程的练习测试组件 格兰特提案。将使用双能x射线吸收法来测量 骨密度、脱脂质量和局部脂肪质量。CT扫描 将用于量化内脏脂肪组织质量和骨骼 大腿的肌肉区域。全身水分(2/H20)和细胞外液 将对空间(溴化物空间技术)进行测量，以评估 用双能x射线吸收计法测定脱脂质量。这个核心 还将进行峰值摄氧量、等张和 等轴测强度。此外，该核心还将为 需要大量的间接量热法测量 协议I、III和IV。这个核心可以访问最先进的 高质量力量结合的身体成分分析仪器 测试设施。设备和设备的可用性 进行身体组成和运动部分的专业知识 Grant Proposal确保对此项目的参与者进行高质量测试 学习。

They Body Composition/Exercise Core will provide comprehensive body composition analysis together with the exercise testing components of this grant proposal. Dual energy x-ray absorptiometry will be used to measure bone mineral density, fat free mass, and regional fat mass. CT scanning will be used to quantitate visceral adipose tissue mass and skeletal muscle area in the thigh. Total body water (2/H20) and extracellular fluid space (bromide space technique) will be measured to assess the quality of fat free mass as determined by dual energy x-ray absorptiometry. This core will also perform measurements of peak oxygen uptake, isotonic and isometric strength. In addition, this core will provide support for the large number of indirect calorimetry measurements which will be required for Protocols I, III, and IV. This core has access to state-of-the-art instruments for body composition analysis together high quality strength testing facilities. The availability of both the equipment and the expertise to conduct the body composition and exercise portions of this grant proposal assures high quality testing of the participants in this study.
