Childhood obesity has been increasing rapidly. Previous work investigating body composition in obese children and adolescents has relied primarily on body mass index (BMI), or on measures that assume constant properties of fat-free mass (FFM). This limits our understanding of the effect of treatment. My PhD is divided into three aims. First, I explored differences in body composition between obese and non-obese children using multi-component models. Second, I investigated the effectiveness of two weight-loss programmes (a randomised controlled trial adopting the traffic-light program (TLP), an

The internet is a novel medium for delivering behavioural modification weight loss programs and owing to its widespread accessibility it has the potential to treat at the population level. This thesis aimed to evaluate the effects of a unique web-based behaviour change program (WBP) called 'Imperative Health' on weight loss in an overweight/ obese population at high risk of cardiovascular disease (CVO) using a randomised controlled trial. In total, 65 participants were randomly assigned to one of two groups for 12 months: the control group (usual care) or the intervention group (WBP). Assessme

<p> <b>INTRODUCTION:</b> Accurate body composition assessment is crucial for determining health consequences due to excess body fat (BF). While several techniques exist there are few that are accurate, non-invasive, fast, and comfortable for subjects. The Three Dimensional (3D) body scanner is a new body composition assessment method that might serve as another option for investigators and practitioners. The purpose of this study was to determine the accuracy of the 3D body scanner at measuring body composition using dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and Air displacement plethysmography (

Many of the current techniques of body composition assessment are either unsuitable for seriously ill patients or lacking precision. The disparity in electrical properties of fat and lean tissue suggests that the interaction between an alternating electromagnetic field and the human body could be a new potentially useful way to determine body composition. The purpose of the work described in this thesis was to develop an inexpensive, simple and safe non-invasive electrical technique of body composition assessment.

Nonetheless, birthweight is a crude surrogate of fetal growth and it may be that quantification of body composition, may more accurately identify the “at risk” individual.

The measurement of total body volume (V) (excluding lung volume) together with total body mass (m) is required in order to determine body density (d = m/V). From this, and using certain simplifying assumptions, it is possible to derive body composition in terms of fat mass (FM) and fat free mass (FFM) for the two-compartment model. The standard method for determining body volume (and hence body composition) is the densitometric (underwater weighing) technique based on Archimedes' principle.
