Abstract:

Background
Five-compartment modeling of body composition (bone mineral, fat, water, protein, extraosseous mineral masses) is considered to be the criterion in vivo model for body composition assessment. Use of multiple techniques to assess composition minimizes measurement errors of each separate contributor and allows for a more accurate estimation of body composition in populations where hydration, bone density, or musculature may vary significantly. However, the 5-compartment (5C) model requires multiple technologies including dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) for bone mass, air-displacement plethysmography (ADP) for body volume, deuterium dilution (D2O) for total body water measurement and extraosseous mineral estimation and scale weight. The combination is time-consuming, taking 4 hours for the acquisition alone, and costly, limiting its broad use. The purpose of this study was to compare the standard 5C model to an accessible version using 3-dimensional optical (3DO) imaging, bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) and scale weight, a model named 3DO-5C.

Methods
Student athletes enrolled in the Da Kine Study at the University of Hawaii, Manoa participated. The target was to recruitment of 80 athletes (40 female) from a variety of collegiate sports. Each measure for the 5-compartment model was performed including scale weight for body mass (BM), D2O for total body water (TBW) and soft tissue mineral (Ms) estimation, DXA for bone mineral mass (Mo), and ADP for body volume (BV). Wang's form of the 5-compartment model was used to estimate body fat mass (FM) as FM = 2.748 * BV − 0.715 * TBW + 1.129 * Mo + 1.222 * Ms − 2.051 * BM. BIA was calibrated to TBW and 3-dimensional optical was calibrated to BV. Demographics were modeled to estimate Mo using data from the Shape Up! Adults study dataset. The simplified multicompartment model (3DO-5C) was modeled and validated using a 5-fold cross validation.

Results
Analysis included 72 participants (34 female; mean age 23.3 +- 4.9 years) with all measures available. 3DO estimates of body volume was highly accurate to ADP (R2=0.99, ADP = 0.998 * 3DO + 1.676). BIA estimated TBW was also highly associated to deuterium dilution (R2=0.98, D2O = 0.986 * BIA - 0.646). DXA Mo was estimated using height, weight, and gender (R2=0.71). An additional correction term was used in the Wang equation to account for covariance of the technique, 3DO-5C = Wang-5C = Wang-3DO + Cov, where Cov = gender, BIA TBW, 3DO volume. With the above substitutions, 3DO-5C model was highly associated with the criterion model (r2 = 0.92, RMSE = 2.0 kg).

Conclusion
3DO-5C provides an accessible, cost-effective and accurate measure of 5-compartment body composition. The use of this practical and easy to use model to measure body composition and hydration has the potential for clinical monitoring of acute changes in sport and clinical practice.
