Abstract

Background The phase angle (PhA) and extracellular water (ECW)-to-total body water (TBW) ratio serve as indicators of cell membrane integrity and body fluid balance in older adults. Objective This study examined the domain-specific associations of physical activity (PA) with PhA and the ECW-to-TBW ratio.
