Joint assessment of insulin resistance surrogate indices and basal metabolic rate for primary prevention of cardiometabolic multimorbidity: evidence from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (2011–2020) [PDF]
Cardiovascular DiabetologyBackground The triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index, estimated glucose disposal rate (eGDR), and metabolic score for insulin resistance (METS-IR) are well-established surrogate indices of insulin resistance (IR). Although both IR and elevated basal metabolic

Association between basal metabolic rate and cardio-metabolic risk factors: Evidence from a Mendelian Randomization study [PDF]
HeliyonBackground: Cardio-metabolic risk factors play a crucial role in the development of cardiovascular and metabolic diseases. Basal metabolic rate (BMR) is a fundamental physiological parameter that affects energy expenditure and might contribute to ...

Causal Effects of Basal Metabolic Rate on Cardiovascular Disease: A Bidirectional Mendelian Randomization Study [PDF]
Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular DiseaseBackground Despite the health effects of basal metabolic rate (BMR), the causal effect of BMR on cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) remains undetermined. To elucidate the causal nature, Mendelian randomization (MR) analyses were performed.

Effect of Basal Metabolic Rate on Cancer: A Mendelian Randomization Study
Frontiers in Genetics, 2021 Background: Basal metabolic rate is associated with cancer, but these observations are open to confounding. Limited evidence from Mendelian randomization studies exists, with inconclusive results. Moreover, whether basal metabolic rate has a similar role

Is the rate of metabolic ageing and survival determined by Basal metabolic rate in the zebra finch? [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 The relationship between energy metabolism and ageing is of great interest because aerobic metabolism is the primary source of reactive oxygen species which is believed to be of major importance in the ageing process. We conducted a longitudinal study on

TT Mutant Homozygote of Is a Key Factor for Increasing Basal Metabolic Rate and Resting Metabolic Rate in Korean Elementary School Children [PDF]
Genomics & Informatics, 2013 We investigated the contribution of genetic variations of KLF5 to basal metabolic rate (BMR) and resting metabolic rate (RMR) and the inhibition of obesity in Korean children. A variation of KLF5 (rs3782933) was genotyped in 62 Korean children.

The mitochondrial Na+/Ca2+ exchanger upregulates glucose dependent Ca2+ signalling linked to insulin secretion. [PDF]
, 2012 Mitochondria mediate dual metabolic and Ca(2+) shuttling activities. While the former is required for Ca(2+) signalling linked to insulin secretion, the role of the latter in β cell function has not been well understood, primarily because the molecular ...

Systems, 2014 Early studies showed the metabolic rate (MR) of different-sized animals was not directly related to body mass. The initial explanation of this difference, the “surface law”, was replaced by the suggestion that MR be expressed relative to massn, where the
