Figure Lengend Snippet: Bland–Altman plots representing the difference between DXA-derived %BF and %BF determined using ( a ) anthropometry, ( b ) BOD POD, ( c ) NIR and ( d ) BIA. The central dotted line represents the mean inter-methods difference. The upper and lower broken lines represent the 95% limits of agreement (inter-methods difference ± 1.96 SD of the differences). Abbreviations: %BF = percentage of body fat; DXA = dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry; BOD POD = air displacement plethysmography; NIR = near-infrared interactance; BIA = bioelectrical impedance analysis; SD = standard deviation.
Article Snippet: As field methods, BIA (Tanita BC-418, Tanita Corporation of America, Inc., Arlington Heights, IL, USA), NIR (Futrex-6100, Futrex, Gaithersburg, MD, USA) and anthropometry (Seca 769 scale with stadiometer, Seca Corporation, Hamburg, Germany; Holtain caliper, anthropometric tape and anthropometer, Holtain, Crymych, UK) were used.
Techniques: Derivative Assay, Standard Deviation
