Objective: Determine intramuscular fat (IMF) in affected skeletal muscle after complete spinal
cord injury using a novel analysis method and determine the correlation of IMF to plasma …

Study design: Cross-sectional and longitudinal design. Objectives:(1) To quantify skeletal
muscle cross-sectional area (CSA) after correcting for intramuscular fat (IMF) in thigh muscle …

This study examined the relationship among regional and relative adipose tissue
distribution, glucose, and lipid metabolism in men with spinal cord injury (SCI). After …

Altered body composition has been suggested as a major factor for the high prevalence of
impaired glucose tolerance, insulin resistance, and dyslipidemia in individuals with spinal …

Background: Atrophy and fatty-infiltration of lower-extremity muscle after spinal cord injury
(SCI) predisposes individuals to metabolic disease and related mortality. Objectives: To …

Objective: Abdominal obesity conveys substantial health risks, in association with high
levels of visceral adipose tissue (VAT), subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) and an …

Several body composition and metabolic-associated disorders such as glucose intolerance,
insulin resistance, and lipid abnormalities occur prematurely after spinal cord injury (SCI) …

Purpose. Sarcopenia and increased fat infiltration in muscle may play a role in the functional
impairment and high risk for diabetes in stroke. Our purpose was to compare muscle volume …

The purpose of this study was to determine whether the proportion of skeletal muscle in the
