Chair-rise time

upin humans1

1 study
  1. Intramuscular adipose tissue percentage is associated with chair-rise time in humans (r = 0.671, p < 0.01).

    “There was also a strong correlation between IMAT% and chair rise time (r = 0.671, p < 0.01).”

Oil Red O stained area

upin rats1

1 study
  1. Intramuscular adipose tissue percentage is associated with Oil Red O stained area in rats (r = 0.898, p = 0.002).

    “IMAT% segmented at −600 HU to 100 HU was shown to strongly associate with the ORO-positively stained area (r = 0.898, p = 0.002).”
