Definition of skinfold in English:

skinfold

noun skɪnfəʊld

A fold of skin and underlying fat formed by pinching, the thickness of which is a measure of nutritional status.
Example sentencesExamples
- We measured height, weight, and body fat as the mean of five skinfolds.
- The importance of these factors is supported by the findings that thicker skinfolds are associated with a lowered antibody response to vaccines.
- In addition, body weight, height, and skinfold thickness were measured.
- Estimation of body fat by sum of skinfolds, as used for the calculation of percentage of BF in the current study, has limitations.
- We measured subscapular and triceps skinfolds by using a Holtain skinfold caliper (Dyfed, UK).
- Hand skinfold thickness was not predictive of osteoporosis.
- All four skinfolds were added together to obtain sum of four skinfolds.
- Scapular and triceps skinfold thicknesses on the right side of the body were measured in triplicate using standard techniques.
- All four skinfolds were summed to give a combination measure of limb and trunk fat stores.
- The biceps skinfold thickness was measured as the thickness of a vertical fold raised on the anterior aspect of the arm, over the belly of the biceps muscle.
- Three skinfold thicknesses were measured in all patients according to standard procedures by means of a Lafayette caliper.
- Underwater weighing, skinfold thickness, bioelectrical impedance and near-infrared analysis are more precise means of assessing fatness.
- Some have suggested that the edema reaction, as determined by measuring the double skinfold thickness, provides a ready alternative.
- We estimated percentage of body fat with the sum of 3 skinfolds in accordance with the method of Jackson.
- Each month the children's weight, length, head circumference, subscapular skinfold thickness, and mid-arm circumference were measured.
- Converted to a skinfold caliper reading, Wilfork's body fat would have been about 18 percent.
- We collected new data on measurements of the skinfold at the triceps.
- I was so excited, I measured my waist and had skinfolds taken every week.
- Middorsal skinfold thickness was measured regularly up to 22 weeks, when the presence of multiple tumors interfered significantly.
- Except for a tendency to have a greater skinfold thickness, all other indicators of cardiovascular risk were remarkably similar for exposed and non-exposed.
