BRI was first reported in 2013 by the mathematician Diana Thomas and colleagues in an analysis of three databases from studies of demographics, anthropometrics, fat mass, and visceral fat volume. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Thomas visualized the human body shape as an egg or ellipse rather than as the cylinder model that is envisioned in the concept of the BMI.
A difference in body fat distribution was observed between men and women living in Denmark (this includes both android fat distribution and gynoid fat distribution), of those aged between 35 and 65 years, men showed greater body fat mass than women. Men showed a total body fat mass increase of 6.9 kg and women showed a total body fat mass ...
The panniculus (often incorrectly referred to as pannus) [1] is a dense layer of fatty tissue consisting of excess subcutaneous fat within the lower abdominal region.
