Association between depression, parameters of adiposity and genetic polymorphisms of pro-inflammatory cytokines: IL-1α, IL-1β, IL-2 and IL-6 in subjects over 55 years old
We sought to assess the prevalence of -889C>T IL-1α, -31T>C and -511C>T IL-1β, -330T>G IL-2 and -174G>C IL-6 genes and their association with adiposity and depression in Polish subjects.

Single cross-sectional area of pectoralis muscle by computed tomography – correlation with bioelectrical impedance based skeletal muscle mass in healthy subjects
Skeletal muscle depletion is an important prognostic factor in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD); a recent study demonstrated significant correlations between pectoralis muscle area on an axial CT image and COPD-related traits. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the relation between pectoralis muscle areas on CT scans and total body skeletal muscle mass (SMM) in healthy subjects.

SPECTROSCOPIC ADMITTIVITY IMAGING OF BIOLOGICAL TISSUES : CHALLENGES AND FUTURE DIRECTIONS
We can express the electrical tissue properties as the frequency-dependent admittivity, which can be measured in a macroscopic scale by assessing the relation between the timeharmonic electric field and current density. This paper discusses a number of issues in electrical tissue property imaging modalities and their future directions.

Possibilities of use bioelectrical impedance analysis as measuring technique in prevention of osteoporosis
The aim of this study was to investigate if there is a correlation between results of body analysis by BIA and results of DXA measurements at usual sites for diagnosis of osteoporosis. If the correlation is found than it could mean that BIA might be used to point the need for extra DXA measurements, and earlier diagnosis of osteoporosis.
