The document provides instructions for performing anthropometric tests to measure body fat percentage, blood pressure, and flexibility. It describes taking skinfold measurements at four sites on the body to calculate total body fat percentage, and using the results to determine fat weight, lean body weight, and weight needed to lose to meet an ideal body fat percentage. Students are asked to practice performing these tests on two people and producing a report of their results and analysis.
This unit seeks to enable learners to understand the importance of taking accurate body measurement and also know how to take body measurement for accurate fit in sewing and pattern drafting.
One of the greatest things about creating your own clothes is getting a personalized fit, and that starts with accurate
measurements. Make sure you have a good tape measure, straight pins, and a body-hugging outfit. It’s difficult to
take good measurements if you are wearing bulky clothing because the tape measure needs to wrap rather
snugly against your body (but not so tight that it’s uncomfortable or alters your size).
Having a friend help you is easier than taking your own measurements, but as long as you have a mirror you can
take them yourself. Make sure you stand naturally with your weight evenly distributed on both feet. And, when you
are taking width-wise measurements, make sure the measuring tape is parallel to the floor. A slight slant of the tape
can throw off the measurement and cause fitting problems later.
Prepare to take and record all the measurements described. Keep them in a safe place so you can refer to them
while drafting your designs. I have a notebook in my work area where my measurements live, so I can refer to them
for each new project.

Lab 9
Body Composition Assessment
Purpose:
The purposes of this laboratory experience is to develop your skill in using the skinfold and bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) to assess body composition and to use common anthropometric measures such as body mass index (BMI) and waist-to-hip ratio (WHR) to estimate health risks associated with being overweight. You will also gain knowledge of hydrodensitometry (hydrostatic weighing), the air displacement technique, and duel energy x-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) methods to assess body composition.
Background:
Relative body fat percentage is a good indicator of general health and fitness. High percent body fat is associated with increased risks for several diseases including diabetes, hypertension (high blood pressure), certain cancers, cardiovascular disease, and hyperlipidemia (high cholesterol) among others. Conversely, appropriate body fat is associated with increased longevity and reduced risk for developing the conditions mentioned above. Body composition is estimated in order to determine a healthy body weight, to monitor growth in children, to monitor health status in malnourished or diseased populations, and to estimate competitive body weight for athletes.
Methods: (skinfolds, BIA, anthropometric)
Equipment:
General:
· Anthropometric measuring tapes
· Marking pens
· Body weight scale
· Stadiometer
Skinfold Measurement:
∙ Plastic or metal skinfold calipers, preferably metal calipers
Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis:
∙ BIA analyzer (OMRON)
Testing Procedures:
Work in groups of 2 - 3 for all measurements. Your write-up will include data for 2 subjects. One student will be measured, one will be measuring, and one will record. Rotate positions until all students have performed all roles.
General:
∙ Obtain demographic information from client and fill-in Data collection form
Skinfolds:
∙ Follow the measuring procedures for skinfold measurement.
∙ Use the standardized anatomical descriptions for skinfold sites to locate each site. Mark the six skinfold sites with the surgical marking pen.
BIA (OMRON):
∙ Enter data into OMRON.
∙ Have client grasp handles firmly and hold out in front of themselves with arms parallel to the ground and legs shoulder width apart.
∙ Hit START button.
Anthropometric Measures:
∙ BMI = wt/ht2
O Wt = weight in kilograms
O Ht = height in meters
∙ Waist-to-Hip ratio = C-waist/C-hip
O C-waist = circumference of waist at narrowest point between xiphoid process and umbilicus
O C-hip = circumference of hip at widest point between iliac crest and gluteal fold
Data Analysis:
Skinfolds:
∙ Calculate body densities for at least 3 subjects (may include yourself as one) using all 3 equations [converting skinfold thickness to body density (Db)]
∙ Convert to percent body fat using the population specific equations
∙ Classify the percent body fat for your subjects using the most appropriate equation
BIA:
∙ Measure percent body fat 2 times for each client
∙ Record avera ...

Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!
Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.

RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.
