Differences in resting metabolic rate between paraplegic and able-bodied subjects are explained by differences in body composition.
BACKGROUND Little is known about the relation between body composition and energy metabolism in paraplegia. OBJECTIVE We investigated the relation between body composition and energy metabolism in healthy paraplegics as compared with able-bodied control subjects. We hypothesized that paraplegics would have lower fat-free mass (FFM), body cell mass (BCM), resting metabolic rate (RMR), and ther...
متن کاملFamilial Resemblance of Body Composition, Physical Activity, and Resting Metabolic Rate in Pre-School Children
Background: Although parental obesity is a well-established predisposing factor for the development of obesity, associations between regional body compositions, resting metabolic rates (RMR), and physical activity (PA) of parents and their pre-school children remain unknown. The objective of this study was to investigate parent-child correlations for total and regional body compositions, restin...
متن کاملDifferences in Coronary Mortalit Can Be Explained
Background. For decades, the coronary heart disease (CHD) mortality rate has been four or more times higher in Finland than in France despite comparable intakes of dietary cholesterol and saturated fat. A potential answer to this paradox is provided by this study of 40 countries and the analyses of other nutrients in the diets besides cholesterol and saturated fat. Medhds and Resuls. CHD death ...
متن کاملCan Nomenclature for the Body be Explained by Embodiment Theories?
According to widespread opinion, the meaning of body part terms is determined by salient discontinuities in the visual image; such that hands, feet, arms, and legs, are natural parts. If so, one would expect these parts to have distinct names which correspond in meaning across languages. To test this proposal, we compared three unrelated languages-Dutch, Japanese, and Indonesian-and found both ...
