Predict skeletal muscle mass from age, height, and gender.
skeletal_muscle_mass(smm, age_years, height, gender)
smm |
Vector of allometrically-scaled skeletal muscle masses. |
age_years |
Vector of ages in years. |
height |
Vector of heights in cm. |
gender |
Vector of genders, either 'Male' or 'Female.' |
For individuals over age 18, use allometrically-scaled muscle mass with an
age-based scaling factor, to account for loss of muscle mass with age
(Janssen et al. 2000). For individuals under age 18, use
skeletal_muscle_mass_children
.
Vector of skeletal muscle masses in kg.
