Total and subregional body composition (BC) and bone mineral density(BMD)measurements performed by DXAare useful in clinical practice. OBJECTIVES: 1To establish Total Body (TB) BC: Bone mineral content (BMC), lean mass (LM) and fat mass (FM) and BMD reference values in healthy men from 20 to 79 years of age. 2To analyze changes through these decades. POPULATION: 116 normal Caucasian male aged 20 to 79 years, with a body mass index (BMI) between 2030 kg/m2. METHODS: BMD of TB and subregions (legs, arms, trunk, total spine and pelvis) and TB BC (BMC, LM and FM) and subregions (legs, arms and trunk) were determined by DXA (LUNAR-DPX-L). RESULTS: The changes from D3 (aged 2029) to D8 (aged 7079) were analyzed by ANOVA. A diminution in height (-6 cm, P < 0.03), and an increase in BMI (+2 kg/m2, P <0.01) were observed. There was a decline in TB BMD, area and BMC (6, 9, and 15%, respectively). TB fat mass showed an increment of 6.7 kg (P < 0.001) mainly due to trunk fat mass (+70%). TB lean mass showed a decline of 5 kg (P <0.05) mainly due to a diminution in peripheral lean mass: 3 kg in legs (-16%, P < 0.0001) and 1.3 kg in arms (-9%, P < 0.002).
CONCLUSIONS: Through the decades weobserved: 1A slight (6%) diminution in DMO,
with a higher diminution in area and BMC (9 and 15% respectively).2An increase in
Total Fat Mass, predominantly in the trunk, that may have implications for the risk of Cardiovascular and metabolic syndromes, and a diminution in TB lean mass, predominantly in the legs, probably related to decreased physical activity and hormonal changes.
3Total and subregional BMD and BC reference values were obtained.
