Research Abstract |
There is no body composition data measured by a precise technique such as dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) in a Japanese population of adults. In the present study, we analyzed body composition of 15-year follow-up data from a large scale random sample cohort in Japan. We found a geographic difference and a change with aging. In addition, we found an association between body composition and bone mineral density and that between body fat distribution and risk factors of cardiovascular disease.
