Zusammenfassung
Introduction: Growth is a central process in paediatrics. Weight and height evaluation are therefore routine exams for every child but in some situation, particularly inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), a wider evaluation of nutritional status needs to be performed. The assessment of body composition is essential in order to maintain acceptable growth using the following techniques: Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA), bio-impedance-analysis (BIA) and anthropometric measurements (skinfold thickness skin), the latter being most easily available and most cost effective. Objectives: To assess the accuracy of skin…
