Simplified resting metabolic rate-predicting formulas for normal-sized and obese individuals.
OBJECTIVE Resting metabolic rate (RMR) is known to be proportional to body weight and to follow allometric scaling principles. We hypothesized that RMR can be predicted from an allometric formula with weight alone as an independent variable. RESEARCH METHODS AND PROCEDURES An allometric, power-law scaling model was fit to RMR measurements obtained from a cohort of patients being treated for w...
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 کاملDiet quality in obese/overweight individuals with/without metabolic syndrome compared to normal weight controls
Background: Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a serious public health concern worldwide; however, the pathogenesis of this disease has not been yet cleared. This study aimed to compare diet quality in obese/overweight participants with/without metabolic syndrome with normal weight controls. Methods: This was a comparative study on 147 Iranian adults under treatment at the Endocrinology Cen...
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...
متن کاملRelation between Healthy Eating Index and Resting Metabolic Rate
Background and Objectives: Previouse studies demonstrated inverse association between healthy eating index and alot of chronic diseases like cardiovascular disease and cancer and mortality. Since there are limited study about relation between healthy eating index and reting metabolic rate. considering the results of some studies about the relation between weight, body composition and blood suge...
