From: Monitoring of muscle mass in critically ill patients: comparison of ultrasound and two bioelectrical impedance analysis devices

Fig. 1

Percentage change in muscle mass, monitored by an ultrasound and two BIAs. Percentage change in muscle mass was calculated in the comparison with the value of day 1. Muscle mass, monitored by an ultrasound, statistically significantly (p <  0.01) decreased, whereas muscle mass, monitored by two BIAs, did not statistically significantly decrease (Bioscan, p = 0.14; Physion, p = 0.60). p values were derived from mixed-effects models for repeated measures. Data are presented as means and 95% confidence intervals. The number of patients daily is displayed below the graph. BIA bioelectrical impedance analysis
