  1. Height, male gender and female gender were represented by H, M and F, respectively. (R/H)r, (Xc/H)r, θr and r(R,Xc)r (r(R,Xc)r = r*) were body electrical resistance/height, body capacitive electric reactance/height, body phase angle and correlation coefficient of Pearson, respectively [16] (courtesy of MSc.
