Estimating changes in free-living energy intake and its confidence interval.
BACKGROUND Free-living energy intake in humans is notoriously difficult to measure but is required to properly assess outpatient weight-control interventions. OBJECTIVE Our objective was to develop a simple methodology that uses longitudinal body weight measurements to estimate changes in energy intake and its 95% CI in individual subjects. DESIGN We showed how an energy balance equation wi...
متن کاملA small-changes approach reduces energy intake in free-living humans.
OBJECTIVE America On the Move (AOM) is a national weight gain prevention initiative that promotes small lifestyle changes by increasing walking by 2000 steps/day and reducing energy intake by about 100 kcal/day. The study's intent was to determine the impact of these small changes recommendations on steps/day and energy intake. METHODS In this cross-sectional study, food and fluid intake and ...
متن کاملGeneral deming regression for estimating systematic bias and its confidence interval in method-comparison studies.
BACKGROUND Various forms of least-squares regression analyses are used to estimate average systematic error (bias) and its confidence interval in method-comparison studies. When assumptions that underlie a particular regression method are inappropriate for the data, errors in estimated statistics result. In this report, I present an improved method for regression analysis that is free from the ...
متن کاملValidation of an inexpensive and accurate mathematical method to measure long-term changes in free-living energy intake.
BACKGROUND Accurate measurement of free-living energy intake (EI) over long periods is imperative for understanding obesity and its treatment. Unfortunately, traditional methods rely on self-report and are notoriously inaccurate. Although EI can be indirectly estimated by the intake-balance method, this technique is prohibitively labor-intensive and expensive, requiring repeated measures of ene...
متن کاملEstimating disparity with confidence from energy neurons
The peak location in a population of phase-tuned neurons has been shown to be a more reliable estimator for disparity than the peak location in a population of position-tuned neurons. Unfortunately, the disparity range covered by a phasetuned population is limited by phase wraparound. Thus, a single population cannot cover the large range of disparities encountered in natural scenes unless the ...
