Accurate estimates of percent body fat, lean mass and bone density are desirable to many clients and researchers in health-related fields. Two current methods considered accurate and reliable are the BOD POD and iDXA. Studies comparing the accuracy of these two methods have shown that there is a statistically significant difference of 1-3% in the percent body fat in populations studied, and this difference can be easily attributed to either method. The purpose of this case-control study is to evaluate how bone density may influence the difference for body fat estimates between the BOD POD and the iDXA machines when comparing bone adequate versus osteopenic female runners from a parent study which included 125 recreational female runners. Cases were invited to participate in this BOD POD study based on low bone mineral results (Z score < -1.0 for total body or lumbar spine). Bone adequate controls were at least average or better (Z score > 0). Cases and controls were matched on age (within + 3 years), body size using body height (within + three inches) and weight (within + ten pounds). After each case, an appropriate control (Z-score > 1.0 for total body or lumbar spine) was identified and invited to participate yielding a total of 15 pairs of subjects. Analysis of the percent body fat between the BOD POD and iDXA for each subject was performed by evaluating the calculated difference between the measures, and the data compared between the Case-Control groups. The group variances were determined similar using the Folded F statistic (p = 0.7366). Paired T-test analysis between groups demonstrated no significant difference (p = 0.1102) in the difference variable between the cases (mean 0.68 +1.51) and controls (mean 1.63 +1.66). Power analysis was performed using the mean and standard deviations of the actual sample (1) and indicated a low powered study (1-β = 0.24), and it would have required 77 subjects per group based on these findings to see a significant difference. Conclusion: Based on the findings of this small case-control study, no significant differences were found between the BOD POD and the iDXA measures of percent body fat between the bone insufficient and bone sufficient groups. Further exploration of the data using linear modeling did demonstrate a potential role for bone density and a menstrual indicator when predicting the percent body in the BOD POD from the iDXA estimates. These findings need further investigation using much larger sample. 2012-01-06 English text The Ohio State University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1325172432 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1325172432 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
