[Analysis of the results of the measurements of adipose tissue in the human body based on the study of skinfold thickness].
The method of Durnin and Womerslay of fatty tissue content in human body was analysed for determining the reproducibility of measurements and agreement of the results depending on the number of measured folds and number of measurement repetitions. The analysis was based on the results of the first cross-sectional study POL-MONICA Warsaw. An agreement was demonstrated between the results of one and two measurements of the folds and four measurements, and between the body fat content determined by means of these measurements. This made possible reduction of the number of measurements in the second cross-sectional study. A small but statistically significant difference was noted between the mean values of body fat content determined from various combinations of skin-fat folds.
