| mass stopping power | <physics> The mass stopping power (S/r) of a material for charged particles is the quotient dEs by the product of dl and r, where dEs is the average energy lost by a charged particle of specified energy in traversing a path length dl and r is the density of the medium.

| MASS syndrome | <syndrome> A syndrome closely resembling both the Marfan's syndrome and the Barlow syndrome. However, no dislocation of the lenses or aneurysmal changes occur in the aorta, and the mitral valve prolapse is by no means invariable. at present it has been assigned no separate OMIM number, but shares that of the Barlow syndrome. Origin: mitral valve prolapse, aortic anomalies, skeletal changes, and skin changes. (05 Mar 2000) |

| body mass index |
a mathematical calculation used to determine whether a person is overweight. It is reached by dividing a person's body weight in kilograms by the height in metres squared. The healthy BMI range is between 18.5 and 24.9.

| body mass index |
A more accurate measure of ideal weight, BMI is an estimation of body fat based on height and weight. According to guidelines from the National Institutes of Health (NIH), a normal BMI range is 18.5 to 24.9. A BMI of 25 to 29.9 is considered overweight, and a BMI of 30 or more is considered obese.

| body mass index |
(BMI): Body Mass Index is a standardized ratio of weight to height, and is often used as a general indicator of health. Your BMI can be calculated by dividing your weight (in kilograms) by the square of your height (in meters). A BMI between 18.5 and 24.9 is considered normal for most adults. Higher BMI's may indicate that an individual is overweight or obese.
