Body Composition of Obese Subjects by Air Displacement Plethysmography: The Influence of Hydration

OBJECTIVE: We investigated whether air displacement plethysmography (ADP) could detect small changes in body composition of obese subjects with alterations in hydration. RESEARCH METHODS AND PROCEDURES: Ten obese subjects (mean BMI, 39.3 ± 2.8 kg/m²) entered the ADP chamber without and with oil (1,...
