Performance of resting metabolic rate estimation equations in obese patients
Background Weight gain may be associated with an imbalance between energy intake and energy expenditure. The resting metabolic rate (RMR) is the main component of total energy expenditure, and is related mainly to lean mass (LM), as well as to other factors such as fat mass (FM), age, sex and genetic factors. A RMR lower than expected may be a risk factor for weight gain. RMR is estimated by eq...
متن کاملAccuracy of predicted resting metabolic rate and relationship between resting metabolic rate and cardiorespiratory fitness in obese men
PURPOSE The purpose of this study is to examine that not only the relationship of the resting metabolic rate (RMR) and cardiorespiratory fitness(VO2peak), but also the comparison between measured and predicted results of RMR in obese men. METHODS 60 obese men (body fat>32%) were recruited for this study. They did not participate in regular exercising programs at least 6 months. The RMR was me...
متن کاملcomparison of indirect calorimetry and predictive equations in estimating resting metabolic rate in underweight females
background : underweight as a public health problem in young women is associated with nutritional deficiencies, menstrual irregularity, eating disorders, reduced fertility, etc. since resting metabolic rate (rmr) is a necessary compo-nent in the development of nutrition support therapy, therefore we determined the accuracy of commonly used pre-dictive equations against rmr measured by indirect ...
متن کاملResting metabolic rate of obese patients under very low calorie ketogenic diet
Background The resting metabolic rate (RMR) decrease, observed after an obesity reduction therapy is a determinant of a short-time weight regain. Thus, the objective of this study was to evaluate changes in RMR, and the associated hormonal alterations in obese patients with a very low-calorie ketogenic (VLCK)-diet induced severe body weight (BW) loss. Method From 20 obese patients who lost 20...
متن کاملMeasured Versus Predicted Resting Metabolic Rate in Obese Diabetic and Obese Non-Diabetic Subjects
Predictive equations provide the basis for estimating energy needs for different individuals; however, accuracy of these equations has been questioned in tropical countries. The current study determined which of the commonly used predictive equations is most suitable for estimating resting metabolic rate (RMR) in a random sample of obese diabetic and obese non-diabetic subjects in Sudan. Two ma...
