Anthropometry in blacks: applicability of generalized skinfold equations and differences in fat patterning between blacks and whites

MC Zillikens, JM Conway - The American journal of clinical nutrition, 1990 - Elsevier
To test the accuracy of generalized skinfold (SF) equations in blacks and to compare fat
patterning in black and white adults, percent body fat (% BF) was assessed in 90 blacks and
89 whites by deuterium oxide dilution (D2O) and by generalized SF equations [Durnin and
Womersely (DW), and Jackson and Pollock and Jackson et al (JP)] by using two calipers
(Lange and Holtain). In blacks, JP significantly underpredicted (2.95%) and DW
overpredicted (1.74%) D2O% BF with the Lange caliper. With the Holtain caliper DW …
