OBJECTIVE: To compare changes of body water measured by using bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA), between @entity50664 and @entity3591 therapy. MATERIAL AND METHOD: This is a prospective randomized open-label study in @entity101 outpatients. Eighty @entity1 were randomized into two groups; 1) @entity3591 5 mg/d and 2) @entity50664 10 mg/d. @entity1 were assessed for changes in total body water (TBW), extracellular water (ECW) and intracellular water (ICW) at week 4 and 8 after treatment. RESULTS: At baseline body water in both groups were similar. After treatment, both groups did not have significant changes in body water from baseline. Seven @entity1 in @entity3591 group (17.5%) and none of @entity50664 group developed @entity4 ; p = 0.012. Among those seven @entity1 , TBW, ECW and ICW all increased significantly from baseline. CONCLUSION: BIA did not detected changes of body water in most @entity1 . However, in @entity1 who developed @entity4 , TBW, ECW and LCW significantly increased from baseline with the greatest changes seen in extracellular compartment.
