Identification of the body fat (BF) percentage allows health professionals to detect healthy or risky patterns in a population. However, no studies have elaborated BF cutoff points using the bioelectrical impedance method in young Brazilian adults. Thus, the objective of the present study was to elaborate normative tables for BF in Brazilian men and women (sedentary and physically active) between 18 and 39 years of age. A total of 3,111 adults (958 men and 2,153 women) were evaluated using bioimpedance measurements with the InBody 520 device. The data were distributed normally and divided into percentiles (P, P, P, P, P, P, and P). The following values were observed: for men: P=8.9%-12.5%; P=12.6%-17.5%; P=17.6%-25.3%; P=25.4%-35.1%; P=35.2%-43.0%; P=43.1%-49.4% and P=49.5%; for women: P=18.7%-23.1%; P=23.2%-28.7%; P=28.8%-35.7%; P=35.8%-42.9%; P=43.0%-49.1%; P=49.2%-52.1% and P≥52.2%. These percentiles can be used to classify the adiposity of sedentary and physically active individuals evaluated by bioimpedanciometry.
确定体脂（BF）百分比可使健康专业人员检测人群中的健康或风险模式。然而，尚无研究使用生物电阻抗法阐述巴西年轻成年人的BF临界值。因此，本研究的目的是制定18至39岁巴西男性和女性（久坐不动和身体活跃）的BF规范表。共有3111名成年人（958名男性和2153名女性）使用InBody 520设备通过生物阻抗测量进行了评估。数据呈正态分布，并分为百分位数（P1、P5、P10、P25、P50、P75和P95）。观察到以下值：男性：P1 = 8.9% - 12.5%；P5 = 12.6% - 17.5%；P10 = 17.6% - 25.3%；P25 = 25.4% - 35.1%；P50 = 35.2% - 43.0%；P75 = 43.1% - 49.4%和P95 = 49.5%；女性：P1 = 18.7% - 23.1%；P5 = 23.2% - 28.7%；P10 = 28.8% - 35.7%；P25 = 35.8% - 42.9%；P50 = 43.0% - 49.1%；P75 = 49.2% - 52.1%和P95≥52.2%。这些百分位数可用于对通过生物电阻抗分析法评估的久坐不动和身体活跃个体的肥胖程度进行分类。
