Fat-Free Mass, Not Adiposity, is Associated with Lung Function in Children with Asthma.

2026-01-21

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> The coexistence of asthma and obesity represents a growing challenge in pediatrics. Relying exclusively on Body Mass Index (BMI) limits the understanding of how different body compartments affect respiratory mechanics. The objective of this study was to analyze the association between body composition compartments—specifically Fat-Free Mass (FFM) Z-scores—and lung function in pediatric patien...
