Measured 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...
متن کاملInfluence of vitamin A consumption on resting metabolic rate and fasting respiratory quotient in severely obese subjects.
OBJECTIVE To study whether or not the amount of vitamin A consumed affects the resting metabolic rate (RMR) and fat oxidation at rest in severely obese subjects. MATERIALS AND METHODS In 239 obese subjects, RMR and fasting respiratory quotient (RQ) were determined by indirect calorimetry. Vitamin A consumption was calculated by the Czech PC program 'Nutrition'. The relation between the intake...
متن کاملMyotubes from Severely Obese Type 2 Diabetic Subjects Accumulate Less Lipids and Show Higher Lipolytic Rate than Myotubes from Severely Obese Non-Diabetic Subjects
About 80% of patients with type 2 diabetes are classified as overweight. However, only about 1/3 of severely obese subjects have type 2 diabetes. This indicates that several severely obese individuals may possess certain characteristics that protect them against type 2 diabetes. We therefore hypothesized that this apparent paradox could be related to fundamental differences in skeletal muscle l...
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 کاملPerformance 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...
